UX Lead Designer
🌍 About Us
Hiring for for the Next Generation of Creators
At Teamcubate, we don’t just connect talent with tech—we embed senior engineers, designers, and product leaders into some of the most forward-thinking startups in Europe and beyond. Our mission is simple: find the best people, remove the noise, and place them where they can build things that matter. We’re a long-term partner, not just a recruiter—trusted by companies and talent alike for our product-first, founder-friendly approach.
About the Client
We’re currently hiring on behalf of an international music-tech startup headquartered between Spain and the UAE, with a clear mission: to give creators ownership, fans a voice, and the music industry a decentralised future.
An Ethical Music-Tech Startup building as solution for Creators, Owned by Creators. Powered by Fans. Driven by the mantra: Create. Broadcast. Earn. Own. đź’ˇ
This isn’t a clone app or a Web3 buzzword—it’s a deep-tech platform solving real problems faced by creators. Built from the ground up using distributed ledger technology (DLT), decentralised identity (DID), AI-driven, and real-time streaming infrastructure, this iPaaS (Integrated Platform as a Service) is designed to redefine how artists and fans connect.
You’ll be joining a team that’s building:
- Tokenised music assets and revenue splits
- AI-enhanced fan analytics
- DLT-powered ticketing and credentialing
- Creator wallets with real monetisation tools
- A fan-driven ecosystem where ownership is transparent and earned
Rooted in strong ethical principles and creator-first values, this is a startup owned by creators, powered by fans, and guided by technology—and you’ll be part of the core team laying its foundation.
Build the Future of Music with Us 🎶
This is your chance to join at the foundation level: a product-led, vision-driven team building a platform where you’ll have a voice at the table, autonomy in execution, and the chance to build real infrastructure—not just glue code.
🚀 We are seeking an experienced and passionate UX Lead Designer to own the platform’s full UX lifecycle—from first research sprint to production-ready specs. This is a high-trust role for someone with platform thinking, who can lead research, orchestrate design strategy, and ship clickable, testable prototypes that reflect a multi-sided experience ecosystem (creators, fans, organisers, rights holders, etc.).
As UX Lead Designer, you will be leading the end-to-end design strategy and execution of an experience platform built for creators, fans, and industry stakeholders. You’ll be embedded in a dynamic team of disruptors—from engineers and product managers to smart contract architects—who thrive on challenging the status quo.
If you are a craft-obsessed systems thinker, who enjoys mapping ambiguity into scalable user flows and believes in experimentation > opinions—this one’s for you.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead Design Strategy: Own the UX vision across the platform’s lifecycle—from discovery to launch, covering user onboarding, digital identity, ticketing, rights licensing, live streaming, monetisation dashboards, and more.
- Run High-Fidelity Workshops: Facilitate cross-functional workshops with stakeholders to rapidly prototype and validate concepts.
- Conduct Comprehensive User Research:
- RITE (Rapid Iterative Testing and Evaluation): Lead iterative usability testing for swift design refinement.
- Service Safari: Experience the user journey directly to uncover critical touchpoints.
- In-Depth Interviews (IDI): Engage in deep user interviews to understand motivations, behaviours, and needs.
- Develop Clickable Prototypes: Build polished, interactive MLP-level prototypes (preferably in Protopie).
- Manage UX Delivery: Oversee the UX roadmap, drive agile design sprints, and ensure UX consistency across features and user flows.
- Mentor and Collaborate: Build and lead a small but mighty team of UX/UI designers; collaborate closely with product, engineering, and leadership.
- Collaborate with Key Stakeholders: Work closely with the CEO, CTO, CPO, and other stakeholders to ensure design strategies align with business goals.
Requirements
- Education: Bachelor’s degree in HCI, Cognitive Science, UX Design, Digital Media, or related fields.
- Experience: Minimum 6-8 years in a Design Lead role with demonstrable experience in:
- Applying User-Centered Agile Methods, including Phase 0 (initial research) and iterative testing.
- End-to-end design project management, including workshop facilitation.
- RITE, Service Safari, and IDI research methodologies.
- Technical Skills: Mastery of design tools (e.g., Figma, Sketch, Adobe Creative Suite) and prototyping software, preferably Protopie.
- Research and Project Skills:
- Skilled in balancing user needs with business requirements, ensuring both user-centered and commercially viable decisions.
- Proven capability to complete responsibilities independently, maintaining integrity without AI or LLM tools.
- Communication and Problem-Solving: Strong analytical and presentation skills for diverse audiences.
🎯What's in it for you?
- Voice at the table – Influence architecture, product, and team culture
- Solve real problems – Creators are underpaid; we’re fixing that
- Stack autonomy – Rust-first, DLT-native, AI-augmented
- Flexible work – Hybrid setup
- Competitive salary – Backed by long-term vision and founder-level commitment
- Mission-driven culture – Build for people, not platforms
If you believe in transparency, ownership, and decentralised creativity—we want to hear from you.
