Design Engineer, Brand + Product

<h1><strong>About Gladia </strong></h1><p style="min-height:1.5em">Gladia builds the<strong> audio AI infrastructure </strong>behind the new generation of voice products. Our mission is to <strong>give every voice platform true conversational intelligence </strong>— the<strong> audio infrastructure</strong> that <strong>understands every conversation, turning voice into the world's most valuable data layer.</strong> </p><p style="min-height:1.5em">Our API turns<strong> </strong>real-world conversational audio into accurate, structured, real-time output — powered by our proprietary <strong>Solaria ASR</strong>, across 100+ languages, with industry-leading latency.</p><p style="min-height:1.5em">Hundreds of companies build their voice products on Gladia — from <strong>meeting assistants</strong> and <strong>voice agents to sales-enablement and contact-center platforms.</strong> We started in Paris, our growth is<strong> developer-led</strong> and<strong> heavily US-driven </strong>(and we're going after the US market hard).</p><p style="min-height:1.5em">Headquartered in vibrant tech hubs like <strong>Paris </strong>and<strong> New York City, </strong>Gladia has been by<strong> OVH Groupe </strong>— <strong>Europe's leading cloud provider </strong>— and now operates as a <strong>fully autonomous brand and company within the Group.</strong></p><p style="min-height:1.5em"></p><p style="min-height:1.5em">We're guided by <strong>four values</strong>:</p><ul style="min-height:1.5em"><li><p style="min-height:1.5em"><strong>Honest</strong> — Say the real thing, kindly.</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em"><strong>Smart</strong> — Work smart, ship fast.</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em"><strong>Builders</strong> — Own your scope, build to last.</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em"><strong>Caring</strong> — Support people, take pride in the craft.</p></li></ul><h1><br /><strong>About the role</strong></h1><p style="min-height:1.5em">Gladia's web experience is evolving toward something richer — more immersive, interactive, and product-grade — and that evolution sits at the center of this role. This is a hybrid craft: you design and you build in code, across both our external surface and our internal products.</p><p style="min-height:1.5em">That means three things:</p><ul style="min-height:1.5em"><li><p style="min-height:1.5em"><strong>Our external product</strong> — the marketing site and materials — where we're pushing toward more immersive and interactive experiences.</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em"><strong>Our internal platform and brand system</strong> — the code-native, AI-powered system that generates all our assets — which you'll own and grow as a product in its own right.</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em"><strong>Our products</strong> — Compare STT, GladiaFlow, and our developer experience platform — which you'll design and help build.</p></li></ul><p style="min-height:1.5em">AI is at the core of our product, and increasingly at the core of how we design: our brand runs on a custom system that's prompt-driven and code-native.</p><p style="min-height:1.5em">Strong web skills are non-negotiable — our website is hand-coded (Next.js, HTML, CSS) in Cursor and hosted on Vercel, so comfort with Cursor or an equivalent IDE is a prerequisite, alongside real fluency and curiosity around AI tools.</p><p style="min-height:1.5em">You work with a high degree of autonomy: you anticipate needs, reach out directly to the teams you support without waiting to be briefed, are comfortable managing external partners when needed, and you're used to moving fast.</p><p style="min-height:1.5em"></p><h1><strong>What you'll do</strong></h1><ul style="min-height:1.5em"><li><p style="min-height:1.5em">Lead the evolution of our web experience toward immersive, interactive, product-grade design across our marketing site and materials</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em">Design and build directly in code (Next.js, HTML, CSS), working in an IDE like Cursor and shipping through GitHub, deployed on Vercel</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em">Own and evolve our internal platform and AI-powered brand system — the product that generates all our assets — using prompting as a core creative tool alongside traditional design craft</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em">Design and help build our smaller products: Compare STT, GladiaFlow, and our developer experience platform</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em">Own Gladia's brand identity end-to-end across our website, marketing materials, decks, and video</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em">Move fast and deliver independently across a wide range of formats<br /></p></li></ul><h1><strong>What we're looking for</strong></h1><ul style="min-height:1.5em"><li><p style="min-height:1.5em">Visual design and design-engineering experience — you design <em>and</em> you code — ideally at a startup, having owned surfaces end-to-end rather than executed against an existing brief</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em">Fluency with front-end (React/Next.js, HTML, CSS), confident enough to review and ship changes via GitHub, working in Cursor or an equivalent IDE</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em">Strong interaction and motion sensibility, with the ability to push a web experience toward richer, more immersive and interactive design</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em">Systems thinking: you've built or operated a design system as a living product, not a static style guide</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em">A real, hands-on relationship with AI tools in your workflow — genuine daily use, not occasional dabbling</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em">The ability to build a distinct visual language for a technical, abstract product, without leaning on stock photography or literal product screenshots</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em">Sharp, fast decision-making, with the ability to clearly explain the reasoning behind your choices</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em">Fluent English</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em">Based in or open to working on-site in Paris, as a big plus</p><p style="min-height:1.5em"></p></li></ul><h1><strong>Compensation &amp; benefits</strong></h1><ul style="min-height:1.5em"><li><p style="min-height:1.5em">€65,000–€85,000 base salary, depending on experience</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em">Hybrid work from our Paris office or full-remote in France</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em">~€200/month lunch vouchers</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em">€360/year sports allowance</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em">€300 workstation adaptation budget</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em">Full health coverage</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em">Pension benefits</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em">Flexible vacation policy</p></li></ul><p style="min-height:1.5em">Please submit your application in English.
