About the company

At VEED , we're a generative AI company building the AI video creation platform made for social. It's where millions of marketers imagine and generate branded videos, in minutes.

We're powered by frontier models and VEED Fabric, our own image-to-video model. Our APIs also run AI video inside leading creative products.

We're a fast-moving team, backed by Sequoia, doing $50M ARR. Come help us make AI videos worth posting.

Where And How We Work

At VEED we are hybrid, enabling teams and individuals to design their day and integrate work and life.

For our London, Amsterdam, and Barcelona-based teammates, we ask that you spend 3 days a week in the office during your first 6 months — it’s the best way to connect, collaborate, and get to know your team. After that, you’ll shift to 1 day a week in the office, with flexibility to choose the day that suits you best.

About the role

Generative models can already make video that nobody could have made by hand. What they mostly can't do yet is take direction. Someone types a prompt, waits, and gets something close to what they meant. That gap is a design problem, and it's the one we want you to work on.

We're building the next era of VEED: what it looks like when the ability to make a video sits with anyone who has an idea, and not just with people who know how to edit. We don't think that's a faster timeline. We think it's a different kind of tool, and the shape of it isn't settled.

This is the most open-ended design role at VEED. You'll set the direction for how people create with AI here, across new products and surfaces rather than within one existing area, and you'll be the person the company looks to for what good looks like when it ships.

Direction for our AI experiences

Set the design vision for how people create with generative AI at VEED, across surfaces rather than within one product area

Work at the front of the roadmap, defining the bets rather than executing ones already defined

Turn frontier model capability into something a marketer with no filmmaking background can actually direct

Build the prototypes and artefacts that make an unbuilt idea concrete enough for the company to argue about and commit to

Partner with engineering and research to understand what models can and can't do, and how fast that's changing

New interaction patterns for generative video

Define how people express intent, steer a model, and iterate when the output isn't deterministic

Decide where control belongs with the person and where it belongs with the model

Design for the parts that are easy to ignore: waiting, cost, failure, safety, and what should happen when a generation comes back wrong

Establish the patterns that become VEED's system as these surfaces mature, and document them so others can build on them

The quality bar

Own what good means for design at VEED and hold the line on it

Review and raise work beyond your own projects, including work you didn't start

Bring taste to a product category that mostly doesn't have any yet

Levelling up the team

Coach designers on vision work, prototyping, and craft

Make design legible to people who don't do it: engineering, research, commercial, and leadership

Be a reason strong designers want to work here

About you

Deep product design experience, with a portfolio that shows judgement on ambiguous 0→1 problems and not only finished screens

A track record of setting design direction for a product or a company, rather than delivering against direction someone else set

Real fluency with generative models. You've built with them, prototyped with them, and have opinions about where the current interfaces get it wrong

Strong prototyping ability. You make things real instead of describing them

Systems thinking. You can define new patterns, explain their consequences, and know when to break your own rules

Comfort being early and being wrong in public, then changing your mind quickly

The ability to influence senior stakeholders without authority, and to represent design work confidently to the whole company

An AI-native working style, using AI tools to increase your own effectiveness and applying that lens to how users work

Bonus: Experience in creative tooling, video or motion, developer-facing products, or a research-adjacent environment.

  • Monthly subsidy programme: Everyone values different things, so we give you a monthly allowance to spend how it suits you best — whether that’s on office furniture, childcare, gym memberships, or anything else that makes your life easier.
  • Unlimited paid holidays: Time with family, friends, or just yourself is priceless.

  • Amsterdam and Barcelona: € 134,365 – € 167,956 gross per year
  • We set ranges based on market data and review them regularly. Where your offer lands within the range reflects your experience and skills relative to the level criteria for this role. We don't ask about current or previous salary at any stage of our process.
  • Even if you don’t have every skill listed here, we encourage you to apply. We value curiosity, drive, and the ability to learn just as much as existing expertise.
  • We think what matters is people. After all, a company is just a group of people. We don’t care about where you’re from, what school you went to or where you worked before. If you’ve done exceptional work, we want to hear from you. Join us on our mission to make creative storytelling with video simple and accessible for everyone.
