UI/UX Designer

Are you passionate about creating seamless and user-friendly experiences?

Do you want to empower our customers to meet their key objectives: Optimizing maritime voyages for a more sustainable and efficient future?

At Danelec, we are experiencing rapid growth, and we are looking for a talented designer who is motivated by our mission to drive the sustainable transition of the maritime industry and eager to leverage the magic of creativity and design to make a tangible difference in the logical world of global trade.

The maritime industry emits over 1 billion tons of CO2 annually, and up to 30% of it can be saved using the right digital tools. For ship owners, reliance on manually collected and analyzed data makes it difficult to optimize fleet performance in real time.

We are building an agnostic platform utilizing artificial intelligence and machine learning to advance the efficiency of global shipping. We deliver technology to enable shipping companies to minimize fuel consumption, maximize operational efficiency, and optimize their fleet performance. By arming ship owners and operators with real-time predictive decision support, Danelec is reducing greenhouse gas emissions and making global trade more sustainable.

By providing a unified data platform that leverages machine learning, we empower our clients make better decisions to maximize the return on each ship and every voyage. For our clients, this means they drive closer collaboration, greater transparency, and stronger accountability across their global teams every day.

Now, we are on a rapid growth journey and looking for the right candidate to help us build the agnostic platform that will empower the maritime industry in its sustainable pivot. Wanna join?
