Product Designer

Product Designer

Founded in 2016, OneDome is on a mission to transform the buying and selling property experience for consumers and property service businesses in the UK.

Our property technology is an end-to-end platform that helps consumers with their property search and purchase,while our B2B products empower property professionals to adapt to their customers' changing needs.

Millions of people participate in property transactions every year in the UK. In most cases, it's a stressful and unpleasant process held up by outdated, admin-heavy and labour-intensive processes. We are changing this experience forever using data, powerful digital technology, and an innovative business model.

With offices in London and Kiev, we are a young, fast-growing, well-funded start-up ready to reshape the property industry to better reflect the consumer demands of the 21st Century.

So, that's what we do, and here's who we are

We are obsessive simplifiers: we go into great detail to find ways to deliver a simple experience for our home movers. We relentlessly seek out ways of making it easier to get over the home purchase finishing line.

We are strong believers in what we do: we are excited about having an opportunity to fix one of the most stressful experiences in a consumer's life, as well as help people complete their most crucial acquisition free of any stress.

Our values reflect our journey and our ways of working

Entrepreneurship: we are dreamers and hard workers. We have to be - building a startup to fix one of life's most stressful events requires hard work, stamina, responsibility of ownership, and persistence.

Transparency: transparency is at the core of our products and we believe that this will make the process more efficient for everybody. We have a strong dislike for opaqueness and complexity and prefer to keep things simple and transparent.

Collaboration: we believe in collaboration and teamwork. Property transactions are a collaborative effort between all key stakeholders and so is our approach to improving it.
