Designer Level 3
Board your next challenge as a Product Designer / UX Designer within KLM’s People Technology & Intelligence team. You’ll work on digital HR solutions that support KLM colleagues throughout their employee journey — from applying for a job and onboarding, to learning, developing, and managing their work.
From cabin crew and pilots to baggage handlers, engineers, and office staff: your challenge is to understand what KLM colleagues need and turn those insights into intuitive digital experiences that help them get things done.
What will you do?
- Understand employees’ and candidates’ needs. You research their needs, expectations, and challenges using qualitative and quantitative methods, such as interviews, usability testing, surveys, and other relevant research methods.
- Turn insights into concrete solutions. You translate research findings and business needs into user flows, concepts, prototypes, and interfaces that solve real problems for employees and candidates.
- Bring ideas to life in Figma. You create prototypes and interactive designs in Figma to quickly make ideas visible, testable, and ready for further development.
- Test and improve designs. You test your designs with users and use their feedback, analytics, and product insights to continuously improve the experience.
- Collaborate with a multidisciplinary product team. You work closely with Product Owners, Business Analysts, Engineers, HR specialists, and other stakeholders to understand the problem, shape the solution, and make informed design decisions.
- Guide designs towards implementation. You ensure that your designs are translated into working digital solutions and continue to provide value after go-live.
- Strengthen design at KLM. You contribute to our design community and design system, share knowledge with fellow designers, and help us continuously improve the way we design digital products.

We are responsible for KLM’s digital employee experience — from the moment someone applies for a job to the moment they leave the organization.

You will also be part of a broader community of Product Designers, both within People Technology & Intelligence and across KLM, where we share knowledge, strengthen our design practice, and learn from each other.
