Senior Product Designer at Germinal

What we want to accomplish

This offer is for a Germinal spin off. We've raised a 4 millions euros seed phase with the best european and american VCs. The company will be launched the 1st of October.

We help people creating teaching materials, make addictive training program for their users.

What we solve : people usually buy 3 online courses on a spree, then they never consume the content. 😴

Something is broken and we want to fix it.

We find the existing products like Youtube or Udemy are not made for action but for inaction. 🥱

We believe in doing, they believe in watching.

Only 3% of online courses are completed by students. We want to reach 90%+ completion.

Our product enhances any content creators materials. So their users actually act on them and become better persons.

Remember people learn by doing, not by staying 2 hours in front of a video. 📺

The market we target is huge, our impact will be even greater.

This is the perfect time to help build a product and take the trajectory you want for your personal growth.
