Senior Creative Designer - Food Service Technology

About ZOVU ZOVU is a global online startup building the Operating System for the modern restaurant. We are on a mission to unify the fragmented hospitality industry. Our vision is simple: One OS that covers everything a restaurant needs, Point of Sale, Loyalty Systems, Reservations, Staff Planning, and a Customer App.

We are disrupting the industry by saying "No" to expensive monthly contracts. While competitors charge high SaaS fees, ZOVU operates on a partnership model: we charge strictly a transaction margin on sales. We only grow when our customers grow. We operate as a fully remote, global team. Our core system is built, and we are now on an exciting journey of refining the platform and rapidly expanding our feature set.

At ZOVU, we're all about supporting you! We’re committed to making our hiring process inclusive. If you are ready to hustle and take a disruptive product to the next level, we want you on board.

And remember: we don’t expect you to meet every requirement. If you’re excited by this role and the Horeca industry, we encourage you to apply!

The Role We’re looking to hire an entrepreneurial Senior Creative Designer to join our global remote team. In this role, you will be the driving force behind refining ZOVU's current interface and expanding our product's capabilities.

Our core POS and management system is almost complete. Now, we need a visionary designer to elevate the existing UI/UX and take full ownership of designing critical new add-on modules, such as our comprehensive Inventory System, Staff Scheduler, and more. You will ensure that as our software grows in complexity, it remains beautifully intuitive for restaurant owners and their staff.

This is a fully remote role. You manage your own time, your creative process, and your own success. As a key player in our startup, you will have a direct line to the founders and the opportunity to shape our ongoing product design strategy.

What excites you

• Total Freedom: You love working remotely and managing your own schedule without micromanagement.
• Expanding an Ecosystem: You love taking a solid foundation and building upon it. You are excited to dive into complex challenges like designing seamless inventory tracking and scheduling dashboards that perfectly match our core OS.
• Continuous Improvement: You are obsessed with user feedback and iterating. You want to audit our existing platform, identify areas for UI/UX improvement, and execute those upgrades.
• Disrupting the Market: You want to challenge clunky, legacy hospitality software with sleek, modern, user-centric design that makes a restaurant owner's life easier.
• Ownership: You are a self-starter who loves the thrill of taking a concept for a new feature from a rough wireframe all the way to a polished, shipped product.

What excites us

• Proven Creative Spirit: Experience in UI/UX, product design, and building SaaS dashboards (bonus points for Horeca or inventory/management software) is essential. We need a creator who understands complex data visualization.
• Resilience: You understand startup life. Things move fast, features are added constantly, and you need to be adaptable and ready to iterate.
• Self-Discipline: Since this is 100% remote, you have the internal drive to work consistently, hit your deadlines, and push creative boundaries.
• Communication: You can explain complex design choices simply and collaborate effectively with developers and founders to ensure your designs are implemented flawlessly.
• Industry empathy: You understand the restaurant business. You know that an inventory system needs to be lightning-fast for a chef doing late-night stocktakes, and a staff scheduler needs to be crystal clear for a busy manager.

The Good Stuff!

• 100% Remote: Work from anywhere in the world. Digital nomad friendly.
• Startup Speed: No corporate bureaucracy. We implement ideas fast.
• Career Acceleration: Join a fast-growing startup on the ground floor. The growth opportunities are limitless as we scale globally.
• Be Part of the Vision: You aren't just a number; you are helping perfect the "One OS" for the Horeca industry.

Life at ZOVU We are a global online organization defined by our ambition. We don't need a fancy office to make an impact; we need passion. We make it happen, working with urgency and taking personal accountability. We act with integrity, always transparent about our pricing and our promise. If you are ready to revolutionize the Horeca industry with us, we want to hear from you.
