Kota is making insurance and retirement benefits as accessible as modern software. We have two flagship products, the Kota Platform - the world's first fully integrated benefits platform and Kota Embed - our embedded insurance and retirement product for any platform.
Our mission is to make insurance and benefits more accessible and delightful to this generation of employees.
At Kota, we combine world class engineering with a strong sense of purpose. We build extraordinary user experiences, with curiosity and craftsmanship at the core of everything we do. If you want to work with modern tech, solve meaningful problems and be part of a team that truly cares, you should take a look.
Today, we power benefits for tens of thousands of employees at Europe's most forward-thinking companies, including Carwow, Tines, Zoe, and Remote. Founded in 2022, we've raised more than €20M from leading investors like EQT Ventures, Eurazeo, Northzone, and Frontline, along with founders and executives from Workday, Remote, Personio, OpenAI, and more.
Perfect for a senior who wants to think as part of the job (not just ship).
On Kota Embed you design a surface where a sort-order decision moves real money for tens of thousands of people, where the data model is co-designed with the UI, where 6–10 stakeholders are co-present in major decisions, where constraints become design surfaces rather than obstacles, where prototypes are spec, and where the work compounds into a body of named, citable patterns rather than dissolving into ad-hoc Figma files.
At this moment this is not a steady-state senior IC role. It's a "the ground is moving and you need to own the design quality while it does" role.
You need to want that, not just tolerate it.
(ideally B2B, double ideally it was API-driven), understands why the data model constrains the interface, and finds that constraint interesting rather than annoying.
Not a marketing site, not a dashboard with toggles. You succeeded, and you can explain how you thought through it.
5-user tests, rapid Figma Make/Cursor/Paper prototyping, Datadog/Mixpanel log analysis, facilitating internal design reviews. You also know when to skip research and ship
Lock down problem / assumptions / success criteria before agreeing to a solution.
Recurring interaction surfaces become design-system components.
Getting devs/stakeholders to attend usability sessions. Building and facilitating ceremonies (standups, retros, backlog grooming) so design becomes shared team context, not an isolated artifact.
Type, spacing, rhythm, hierarchy. The basics, worked at 400% zoom - quality and speed aren't opposites.
Cursor / Claude Code comfort. Treating prototypes as spec means producing working prototypes is the design output. Closing the gap between design and engineering rather than widening it.
Embedded financial products.
Fintech, financial services, insurance, or benefits platforms.
Developer product experiences, understanding of how to design for technical users and embedded/integration-heavy products.
We care deeply about our why and it won’t jeopardise our how.
Our products are our story, we look at the details, go the extra mile to delight customers.
. Ask why, do the work, get the data, solve the problem, be an owner.
. We continuously look to push past good enough. Expect more, move faster, and never stop raising your and the team’s standards.
. We exist because we decided to say no to the norm – now we do this everyday.
