Product Designer

About

Mercateam has proven in the last 4 years its aptitude to bring a bright answer to new big challenges faced by the industry:

  • an aging workforce;
  • a high turnover;
  • increasingly sophisticated and technological machines and data proliferation;

which are changing the composition of the manufacturing labor force and how work gets done.
As a result, manufacturers face an urgent imperative to help less experienced workers build knowledge and capabilities, and take advantage of data through collaboration.

Mercateam has built its solution hand in hand with top manufacturers to bring employees into Industry 4.0 and bridge the gap between investments made in machines and in operational workforce and its development.
We have developed a SaaS solution based on the latest technologies for mapping skills on production sites and organize know-how.

This has led to a number of other key features managed by Mercateam, including:

  • smart planning of work assignments under constraints;
  • a training module adapted to the operational workforce;
  • a workforce strategic planning.

Mercateam had a strong commercial track record in the last 3 years and supports over 150 industrial sites, among which LVMH, Andros, Richemond, Dior, LISI, Collins Aerospace, etc… in 12 different countries, with his 360 industrial workforce-centric solution.

Mercateam’s ambition is to become the European leader in blue-collar management over the next three years.

Your Mission

As Product Designer, you will own the full design cycle: from deep research and ideation to delivery with engineers—always in close partnership with Product Management. The Designer/PM duo is central in shaping problems, defining success metrics, and ensuring that every solution is aligned with business impact and user needs.

Our pragmatic approach ensures rigorous validation and a fast learning loop for everyone.

Preferred Experience

Responsibilities

  • Work hand-in-hand with the Product Manager to identify, frame, and solve problems that matter. Share end-to-end ownership: research, flows, wireframes, prototypes, and deployment.

  • Lead user research and customer journey analysis: challenge existing solutions, capture expected improvements, and proactively shape what can be brought to users aligned with company direction.

  • Drive data-driven design: demonstrate deep reasoning skills grounded in both qualitative and quantitative data. Define relevant metrics, conduct research, validate design impact, and iterate using analytics and user insights.

  • Apply “design to cost”: adapt solutions to ambition, scope, and business appetite so we deliver value at the right pace.

  • Leverage AI design tools in daily workflows to accelerate creation, insight generation, and documentation.

  • Design for industry: address complex, operational B2B challenges and workflows found in manufacturing customers.

  • The voice of Design: develop, maintain and evolve our design system, ensuring UI/UX excellence and consistency.

  • Foster team culture: work closely with both business & engineering teams to provide and receive feedback on ongoing projects.

What We're Looking For

  • 4+ years designing SaaS products, ideally B2B in the industry sector, with portfolio evidence.

  • Strong experience collaborating with Product Managers and developers in fast-paced startup/scale-up environments.

  • Advanced proficiency in Figma (required) and demonstrable experience integrating AI tools in design processes.

  • Data-driven reasoning, leveraging both qualitative and quantitative research for impactful design decisions.

  • Demonstrated success adapting solutions to constraints (“design to cost”), with a pragmatic and iterative mindset.

  • Autonomous, rigorous, humble, and equipped with strong communication skills.

  • Fluency in both French and English.
