Join us in shaping the future of music creation!

We’re looking for a tech savvy Product Designer with a passion for creating world leading music production plugins. A role where design, technology and music production meet - you’ll actually see your ideas come to life in real products used by music producers globally.

At XLN Audio, we help music creators bring their ideas to life with our inspiring software and sample-based content. Our award-winning instruments and plugins – like Addictive Drums 2, Life, RC-20, and XO – are used by hundreds of thousands of music producers, songwriters, and creators worldwide.

The Role

As a Product Designer at XLN Audio, you’ll be part of a small, cross-functional team that takes ideas from concept to production. You’ll work closely with developers, product and content managers to design, prototype, and implement solutions for our products.

Some examples of what you will do:

• Lead the UI/UX design process from early concept sketches and wireframes to polished, production-ready interfaces.
• Create and iterate on designs in Figma (and occasionally Miro for early concepting).
• Work closely with C++ developers to ensure your designs are accurately implemented. Furthermore, implement features and designs yourself using scripting languages.
• Collaborate with Product and Content Managers in agile product development doing discovery and translating product requirements (PRDs) into intuitive, elegant user experiences.
• Prototype and refine user interactions to music production and audio plugin use cases.
• Maintain and evolve our design system and UI component library.

About you

You're a friendly team player and self-starter, eager to get things done. You're curious about how things work under the hood and how design decisions affect performance and user experience.

Beyond that, you probable have:

• A couple of years of professional experience in product design, ideally for desktop software or complex applications.
• A strong ability to balance creative design and technical implementation.
• Experience with Figma and modern design workflows.
• Experience working with or around code (bonus if you’ve scripted or coded UI before - JavaScript, Lua, Python, CSS, or similar).
• Familiar with agile and cross-functional product development processes.
• Experience in music production or recording - whether professionally or as a passionate hobbyist.

We welcome applicants from all backgrounds and encourage women and non-binary people to apply.

What we offer

We are a proud team of 40 colleagues, creating world-leading software that empowers music creators all around the globe. If you are a curious and ambitious team player who is always eager to learn more, you will feel right at home with us. It's a big plus if you have an active interest in music-making - producing beats, playing with synths, DJing, or playing instruments.

We offer a comprehensive benefits package, including insurance, pension, paid vacation, wellness support, preventive health insurance, and continuous learning opportunities.

We primarily work from our office in Stockholm (Sweden), but offer a degree of flexibility for part-time remote work. That same office houses two fully equipped music studios and a jam room (perfect for new product creation and spontaneous jam sessions with colleagues), as well as a dedicated hangout and ping pong room.

And yes - we do hold a yearly ping pong tournament. That's when the gloves come off and things get serious.
