Job description

About fonio

We grew from $1M to $10M ARR in under 12 months and now serve 10,000+ customers. Fonio is Europe’s market leader for AI phone agents for SMBs. Now we’re expanding globally and into new products. We move fast, take ownership, give direct feedback, and avoid politics and unnecessary meetings. Join one of Europe’s fastest-growing companies.

Your role

You own how fonio feels on the web. Our website is our most important storefront — and right now it's not where it needs to be. You don't build one nice page, you build a system: a design system and landing page templates that roll out into localized pages across 9+ markets. Continuous optimization, not a one-off redesign. You design and ship - you own the build end-to-end, not a handoff to engineering. We're building an AI operating system for SMBs - people should feel that on the website.

What to expect

  • You own the design and continuous optimization of our website and landing pages
  • You build a scalable design system with reusable components
  • You develop landing page templates that localize across all markets (DACH, FR, IT, ES, UK, PL, US, and more)
  • You design and ship live yourself - full ownership from concept to published page
  • You think in user journey, conversion, and responsive design
  • You work closely with the Creative Director on brand direction

Who we're looking for

  • Several years of experience as a UI/UX or web designer focused on converting websites (portfolio required)
  • You think in systems and components, not individual pages
  • You build and ship yourself
  • Experience with design systems and localization across multiple markets
  • You understand conversion and think in journeys
  • German at native level + good English

What we offer

  • Competitive salary: €65,000–€90,000
  • Equity - you're building this, so you should own a piece of it.
  • Food & drinks - lunch and dinner are on us at the Vienna office (plus all the drinks you want, and yes, we have protein bars and vitamins too).
  • Relocation bonus (if you still need to move to Vienna)
  • Equipment of your choice - whatever makes you happy.
  • Regular team offsites.

Hiring process

  • 15 min intro call
  • 30 min skill interview
  • 20 min culture fit with the founders

Why work at fonio

  • Rapid Growth & Impact: The company is in a phase of hypergrowth (40% MoM), and employees are "still early enough that your work will genuinely shape the culture, the product, and the company." fonio.ai/en/careers
  • Culture: Described as fast, committed, and in-office by default. The team emphasizes moving fast and having fun. Most roles are Vienna-based, with the expectation of being in the office most days.
  • Remote Options: Engineering roles are fully remote (within ±3 hours of CET). For other roles, there is a temporary relocation to Vienna for onboarding (1-3 months), followed by relocation to the target market.
  • Relocation Support: The company sponsors travel and accommodation in Vienna for the onboarding period and offers full relocation support for moving to target markets.
  • Team Size: Around 40-50 people, with plans to double by the end of the year.
  • Hiring Process: A 3-4 step process: 15-minute intro call, 30-45 minute skills interview (sometimes with a case study), potentially a deeper skills or leadership interview, and a final 20-minute culture call with both founders. fonio.ai/en/careers
