AI will transform every industry – but only when it’s accessible to everyone, not just data scientists. Akkio makes it simple to take advantage of the power of AI by combining highly efficient machine learning with a simple and easy to use interface.
We're a team of around 30. We've recently raised a Series A round. Backers include Bain Capital Ventures, founders and executives from top tech companies in the world.
You will be an early member of the design team and will report directly to the designer co-founder. We’re looking for data savvy, analytical designers to expand and refine Akkio’s user experience. To be the right fit you must believe in our mission and be excited to work in a small, dynamic startup team.
Offers come with substantial equity grants and our culture is built around shared wins, so success drives large career, financial, and personal growth.
