The Opportunity

Our mission is to change the way the world works by democratizing AI for every business, and to build a great company that everyone loves being a part of. These two goals haven’t changed since the days when Peak was little more than an idea forming in the heads of our founders Richard, Atul and Dave.

At Peak, we’re revolutionizing inventory and pricing optimization with the only AI platform that consistently delivers real commercial gains. By joining our team, you’ll contribute to helping some of the world’s leading businesses — including the likes of Nike, Heidelberg Materials and Boohoo — harness the potential of AI to grow revenues, increase profits and efficiencies.

At Peak, culture and success come hand in hand — so creating and protecting a company culture that’s true to our values remains a fundamental aspect of our mission. Our company values are built on being Smart through expertise and results, Curious in our relentless problem-solving, Open with an approachable and helpful mindset, Driven by ambitious goals and commitment, and Responsible by taking ownership and delivering with trust.

The Role

Bringing AI decisions alive for our users is the role of our Product Designers. You’ll be working predominantly on researching, designing and helping to craft new and exciting experiences for our suite of AI products.

You’ll join a strong cross-functional team of experienced product managers, product designers and technical specialists including machine learning (ML) engineers, data engineers and software engineers.

Key Responsibilities:

• Deliver excellent design - You will need to become an expert in our customer’s problems. You’ll lead/participate in research to understand our customers’ needs. You’ll use your expertise in both UX and UI to partner with the rest of your team and deliver quality, polished outcomes for our customers.
• Collaborate broadly - As a scale-up SaaS business in the fast moving AI space, Peak needs to stay flexible to our customer needs. This means you’ll need to work closely with customers, product managers, engineers, commercial teams and other stakeholders to define design strategies that align with business objectives, user needs and technological considerations. You’ll lend your expertise to our professional services and revenue teams when their needs align with broader product requirements.
• Develop customer empathy - You will need to become an expert in our customer’s problems. You’ll lead/participate in research to understand our customers’ needs.

• Know your craft - You’ll be joining a dynamic team of experts that is still in the process of forming and developing. This means you’ll need to be a strong voice for best practices around your craft, from tools and user research, to accessibility and systems thinking, and you’ll need to continually keep on the cutting edge of the product design universe.

Our core values, we’re looking for teammates who are:

• Open - Keen on hearing feedback and input from others.

Diversity, equity & inclusion

We’re here to change the way the world works and build an amazing company that everyone loves being part of. We know diverse perspectives and experiences result in better solutions, which is why we want all of our Peakers to bring their authentic selves to work.

We’ve been striving to build a diverse and inclusive team from the outset. It’s a continuous journey, and there’s more we can do — but we’re proud of what we’ve achieved so far, which is ahead of the tech industry standard.

We’ve set targets in relation to gender and ethnicity, for now, but we know there’s more to diversity than just these two areas. We’re passionate about creating an inclusive environment for those of all ages, religions, sexual orientations, socio-economic status and for those with disabilities.

We are proud to be a Disability Confident Committed employer — a UK Government certification for organisations actively taking steps to attract, recruit and retain persons with disabilities. If you need any reasonable adjustments as part of the recruitment process, please let us know.
