The Role
I'm Jason, CEO and Head of Product at Aphex. We need a Senior Product Designer to help scale our construction coordination platform globally.
You'll work directly with construction experts on complex coordination challenges, owning problems end-to-end without a separate product management layer. Your design thinking will directly shape our product and growth trajectory.
About Aphex
We bridge the gap between what's planned and what actually happens on construction projects.
Construction projects are incredibly complex - 50+ subcontractors with interdependent schedules working in shared physical spaces. Master schedules show the big picture, but teams need detailed tools to execute effectively.
Our platform empowers teams to maintain coordination routines, work from shared information, and catch problems before they derail progress. We complement existing systems and help teams execute effectively.
Since 2019, we've become the dominant solution for major infrastructure projects across the UK, Australia, and New Zealand.
Now we're expanding into Europe, North America and Asia, evolving from planning tool to comprehensive project orchestration platform. We're ready to empower construction teams worldwide.
Join us in transforming an industry that contributes ~10% of global GDP.
How We Do Product Development
At Aphex, everyone genuinely loves what we build. You'll join a team where product, sales, customer success, and leadership are all aligned on empowering construction teams.
We've built our process around leveraging internal construction expertise and insights from teams who interact daily with users.
Our Product team currently includes a Head of UX and designer (UK-based), supported by an 8-person CX team and 18-person engineering team across Asia/Australia.
Why This Role Matters
You'll join during our growth phase as we scale from regional success to global impact.
Success Story: We've built tools that construction teams don't just use—they advocate for them because they deliver better project outcomes.
Challenge: We're scaling from regional leader to global platform, adapting for different construction cultures and creating new capabilities.
Your Impact: You'll help scale proven tools into new markets and workflows. This isn't about finding product-market fit—it's about expanding what works.
Why Now: We've proven our solution, and expansion is underway with new markets launching and capabilities shipping. The foundation is built—now there's open field to run in.
