About us

With about 200 talented people across three countries, premium AI capabilities and a diverse portfolio of international clients, we define, design and ship high-quality digital products, strategies and software. From global cloud-based platforms and large-scale apps to medical devices, banking software and augmented reality experiences. In a nutshell: if it lives and breathes digital, it’s what we do best.

Become a part of our team

At In The Pocket, you join a multidisciplinary team of designers, engineers, strategists and data specialists who care about the work as much as the people they work with. We work in small, autonomous teams that stay close to our clients and their users, and we give everyone the space to take ownership, speak up and grow.

• Build and maintain strong client relationships, acting as a trusted design partner.

Team & mentorship

• Actively contribute to the growth and development needs of peers across the design function. As a more experienced designer, you'll be expected to mentor junior colleagues and help elevate the team's capabilities.
• In our team we work by the 4 eye principle; you will work in pairs, often taking the lead role on projects while supporting and guiding others.
• Share your expertise and help shape our design culture, processes, and standards.

Who you are

• Strong understanding and practical experience with research methods and discovery practices. You can design and lead research activities and translate findings into actionable design decisions.
• You express yourself, your ideas and your work fluently in Dutch and English (both spoken and written).
• Proficient to expert in working with common design tools (Figma, Sketch, etc.), prototyping tools (Principle, ProtoPie, Framer, etc.) and user testing tools (Useberry, Maze, UserTesting, etc.).
• Solid experience working with scalable design systems and atomic design principles. You understand how to build and maintain design consistency across multiple products or platforms.
• Excellent communication and presentation skills. You can present confidently to stakeholders at various levels and articulate the value of your design decisions.
