CMF Designer at
Nothing

We’re building a design team in London and are looking for a CMF Designer to help us to invent groundbreaking technology products. Our audience is global, and tech needs new voices at the table, so we’re serious about building a talented team with a wide range of backgrounds and perspectives.

As a CMF Designer at Nothing, you’ll be central to shaping the look and feel of our products and will work from our small studio in King’s Cross, London. You will work closely and experimentally with the Industrial Design team and CMF Lead  to evolve production techniques, colours, materials and finishes for our roadmap of products.

As a team, our Design practice covers a wide range of disciplines - Industrial Design, Engineering, Experience & Interaction Design, CMF, Connectivity, Sound, Emerging Technologies and more. In addition to your core skills as a  CMF Designer, we’re interested to hear about your own superpowers, both in and out of work, and how they might contribute to our technological re-invention.

• Excellent strategic thinker - experience in defining look and feel of a roadmap, drawing from a wide range of sources
• Experience building and presenting insights & foresight to support proposalsechnical understanding of  production finishing techniques including in-mold, post-processing, paints, coatings and more.
