Design Engineer, Brand + Product

Gladia builds the audio AI infrastructure behind the new generation of voice products. Our mission is to give every voice platform true conversational intelligence — the audio infrastructure that understands every conversation, turning voice into the world's most valuable data layer.

Our API turns real-world conversational audio into accurate, structured, real-time output — powered by our proprietary Solaria ASR, across 100+ languages, with industry-leading latency.

Hundreds of companies build their voice products on Gladia — from meeting assistants and voice agents to sales-enablement and contact-center platforms. We started in Paris, our growth is developer-led and heavily US-driven (and we're going after the US market hard).

Headquartered in vibrant tech hubs like Paris and New York City, Gladia has been by OVH Groupe — Europe's leading cloud provider — and now operates as a fully autonomous brand and company within the Group.

We're guided by four values:

• Honest — Say the real thing, kindly.

• Smart — Work smart, ship fast.

• Builders — Own your scope, build to last.

• Caring — Support people, take pride in the craft.

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.

That means three things:

• Our external product — the marketing site and materials — where we're pushing toward more immersive and interactive experiences.

• Our internal platform and brand system — the code-native, AI-powered system that generates all our assets — which you'll own and grow as a product in its own right.

• Our products — Compare STT, GladiaFlow, and our developer experience platform — which you'll design and help build.

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.

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.

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.

• Lead the evolution of our web experience toward immersive, interactive, product-grade design across our marketing site and materials

• Design and build directly in code (Next.js, HTML, CSS), working in an IDE like Cursor and shipping through GitHub, deployed on Vercel

• 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

• Design and help build our smaller products: Compare STT, GladiaFlow, and our developer experience platform

• Own Gladia's brand identity end-to-end across our website, marketing materials, decks, and video

• Move fast and deliver independently across a wide range of formats
  

• Visual design and design-engineering experience — you design and you code — ideally at a startup, having owned surfaces end-to-end rather than executed against an existing brief

• 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

• Strong interaction and motion sensibility, with the ability to push a web experience toward richer, more immersive and interactive design

• Systems thinking: you've built or operated a design system as a living product, not a static style guide

• A real, hands-on relationship with AI tools in your workflow — genuine daily use, not occasional dabbling

• The ability to build a distinct visual language for a technical, abstract product, without leaning on stock photography or literal product screenshots

• Sharp, fast decision-making, with the ability to clearly explain the reasoning behind your choices

• Fluent English

• Based in or open to working on-site in Paris, as a big plus

• €65,000–€85,000 base salary, depending on experience

• Hybrid work from our Paris office or full-remote in France

• ~€200/month lunch vouchers

• €360/year sports allowance

• €300 workstation adaptation budget

• Full health coverage

• Pension benefits

• Flexible vacation policy
