Industrial Designer (ICT)

Industrial Designer (ICT)

We are looking for a Senior Industrial Designer to join a highly creative, international, and multidisciplinary design team in Stockholm.

This is an opportunity to work at the intersection of design, technology, innovation, and human experience, creating next-generation connected products for a global market.

From telecom equipment and smart home solutions to automotive technologies and intelligent connected devices, you will help transform emerging ideas into products that are not only technically advanced, but also desirable, intuitive, and beautifully designed.

The Role

As a Senior Industrial Designer, you will play a key role in shaping products from early insights and strategic concepts through to final product realization.

You will turn observations of users, emerging design trends, societal changes, and evolving business models into compelling design concepts, meaningful user experiences, and innovative product solutions.

You have a highly developed sensitivity for form, proportion, color, materials, and finishes (CMF). You understand that great industrial design is about more than aesthetics – it is about creating meaning, communicating a brand, and delivering an exceptional experience.

You are not simply a stylist. You are a creative problem-solver and innovator who combines strategic thinking with hands-on design skills and a strong passion for detail.

You are comfortable bringing ideas to life quickly through:

• Sketching and visual storytelling
• 3D modeling and rendering
• Prototyping and model making
• 3D printing and physical exploration
• Design workshops and ideation sessions
• Presentations and design reviews

You know when to zoom out and think strategically – and when to zoom in and obsess over the smallest detail.

Key Responsibilities

In this role, you will:

• Be a key contributor to a creative industrial design team developing innovative connected products.
• Lead design projects from research and early concept development through to successful product realization.
• Take ownership of the industrial design function within multidisciplinary project teams.
• Collaborate closely with designers, engineers, product developers, and business stakeholders.
• Communicate design concepts and decisions clearly and inspire stakeholders throughout the design journey.
• Lead design activities, facilitate workshops, and provide constructive feedback to fellow designers and multidisciplinary teams.
• Contribute to cohesive product portfolios and strengthen brand expression through design.
• Stay ahead of competitors, emerging technologies, industry developments, and global design trends.
• Balance human desirability, business viability, and technical feasibility in every design decision.

About You

You are an experienced industrial designer with strong creative capabilities, commercial awareness, and a genuine curiosity about people, technology, and the world around you.

We expect you to have:

• 6–8+ years of professional industrial design experience, with significant experience from a consultancy, design studio, or similarly dynamic environment.
• A BA or MA in Industrial Design, Design Engineering, or a related discipline.
• Proven experience leading projects involving multiple designers while remaining actively involved in hands-on design work.
• An outstanding sense of form, proportion, color, materials, and finishes (CMF).
• A strong understanding of global design, technology, and consumer trends.
• Knowledge of materials, manufacturing processes, and product development.
• Hands-on experience with model making, prototyping, and testing.
• Strong proficiency in tools such as Creo, Rhino, KeyShot, Adobe Creative Suite, or equivalent.
• A proven track record of delivering successful industrial design projects in an international environment.
• Experience designing consumer products is considered a strong advantage.
• A strong portfolio demonstrating creativity, innovation, design excellence, and successful product development.

Your Personality

You are curious, proactive, self-driven, and highly collaborative.

You enjoy challenging assumptions, exploring new ideas, and finding creative solutions to complex problems. At the same time, you are structured, detail-oriented, and capable of taking ownership from the first idea to the final outcome.

You are a confident communicator and presenter who can make complex design ideas easy to understand and bring stakeholders along on the journey.

You thrive in international, multidisciplinary environments and enjoy working with people from different backgrounds and areas of expertise.

Most importantly, you are passionate about creating meaningful products, outstanding user experiences, and design that makes a difference.
