Your mission
Texts are the fabric of the digital world. There’s so much information at our fingertips, but making sense of it efficiently is still very hard. You can become part of a mission to break this barrier, PLUS you will get a lot of freedom and an unbureaucratic, highly collaborative environment with a high level of immediate impact. Our open-source project Haystack is already used all around the world and we set out to become the semantic layer in every enterprise tech stack.
As a UX/UI Designer at deepset, you will shape the UX for our end-to-end, developer focussed search platform “Haystack Hub”. Our typical users today are Machine Learning Engineers in an enterprise and their “job to be done” is to make the text information in the organization easily accessible for a variety of use cases. This used to be a highly complex and scattered process involving many different steps, technologies, and stakeholders. With Haystack Hub, we enable streamlined workflows to set up, customize, deploy and monitor modern search pipelines. As the UX plays an absolutely central role here, your work will directly impact the product’s success. As our search pipelines are based on cutting-edge NLP models, you have the opportunity to learn more about this field and shape it together with us. You will get direct feedback from our enterprise clients and iterate quickly through the exciting stages of an early SaaS product.
Examples: Onboarding workflow for new users; Design of a YAML designer for our search pipelines; Gamification of a labeling workflow for fine-tuning NLP models.
