eeSea is aiming to disrupt the global container shipping industry

eeSea is a start-up in the global transport and container shipping industry. Our vision is to become the central backbone platform for the entire industry – the Google Maps of container shipping, a billion-dollar industry.

The founder has extensive experience from this massive industry and is aiming to disrupt it. This requires an ecosystem approach, where we work with our industry partners through APIs, collection of big data volumes, and deep analytics.

The team currently consists of the founder, our research & industry analysis team, and our business development team. We are now building our development team.

Our office is located at Symbion, in Østerbro, Copenhagen. We have recently closed our second funding round and are supported by senior industry figures.

LogTech as a startup category is heating up and Copenhagen, with our maritime heritage and entrepreneurial ecosystem, is uniquely placed to take advantage of this development.

Job Description – you will help us build a stellar SaaS platform

The current v1 platform is a further development of an initial MVP model: it works, but needs a thorough revamp to be able to scale and do what we what it to. Moreover, the company is now at a stage, commercially and product-wise, where we are starting to align our development road map with our immediate requirements as well as the strategic vision.

The position works closely with the CTO and the technical team.

Your primary tasks will be to:

• implement proper web design principles to improve usability of our desktop app, using feedback collected by the commercial and marketing teams
• work with the development team to plan and execute a roadmap of future functions and features
• create a successful onboarding process for new customers
• provide an overall pleasant experience for our users

Required skills:

• experience with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript
• knowledge of Photoshop and Sketch
• hands-on experience with UX
• a flair for creative and intuitive design
• you’re a master at crafting the user experience, designing a beautiful user interface, and guiding users through the customer journey

As a person you:

• enjoy, and even look for, the challenge of building and growing a platform, instead of just keeping a static application running
• take pride in creating beautiful, user-friendly designs and interfaces
• have an eye for the business, particularly the commercial and business development aspects and how they intertwine with the technical side
• are proactive, self-driven, and able to thrive in a fast-moving start-up environment
• take ownership; when a task or an area of responsibility resides with you, we trust it will be driven to completion, on time, and to high quality
• think strategically, but with a bias towards getting stuff done without over-thinking it
• are structured, focused, and able to keep to task lists and timelines
• communicate fluently and effectively in English, internally and with external partners. In fact, speaking Danish is not a requirement in this job
• do not need to have transport industry experience, but are willing to acquire professional understanding and lingo
• are committed to the job and the growth opportunity in a startup
• enjoy working as part of a team, with the smiles, grudges, chaos, frustrations, laughter, and good people that come along with the experience

It would be a plus if:

• you had experience from a similar industry (big, heavy, and disrupted), like travel
• you have some experience with implementation of JS frameworks
• you are an expert at data visualization and infographics

What do you get out of it?

Do you dread the heavy corporate structure and boring work routines of large companies? We are a budding startup company, so expect none of that. We offer you an exciting and growing position within a small company, where routines do not exist and where we are flexible and passionate about what we do.

We believe in and commit to working closely with and coaching our new team members, so you will need to learn and teach at the same time. Passion is non-negotiable; you provide energy and drive, and love what you do.

The UI/UX Designer position is full-time and offered a market-aligned salary, based on experience and fit. Working hours are flexible, required tools are provided, working from off-site is allowed, within reason. During the application process you may be asked to take a personality assessment and cognitive test.

We have ambitious dreams to change the container shipping industry fundamentally, but also immediate and realistic targets to become profitable and grow our company.
