Head of Furniture & Industrial Design

Join Tylko, Where Design Meets Technology

Founded in Warsaw, Poland, in 2015, Tylko is redefining how we design, shop for, and experience furniture. Frustrated by mass-produced, one-size-fits-all solutions, the team created something smarter: bespoke storage that balances cutting-edge technology, premium craftsmanship, and sustainable production.

With millimetre-perfect precision, every piece is made-to-order and crafted locally, minimising waste and maximising longevity. The result? A new standard in furniture – one that fits your space, your style, and your life.

Why It Matters

We’re not just building furniture. We’re changing how people think about living with it. By merging technology and design, we help people create spaces that truly reflect who they are. If you believe that good design can make everyday life better, you’ll feel right at home here.

How We Work

We believe in small teams, big ideas, and simple processes. No endless paperwork, no silos. Just open communication, shared goals, and a healthy dose of curiosity. We start small, think big, and move fast, because progress always beats perfection.

At Tylko, collaboration and trust aren’t buzzwords — they’re how we work. From day one, you’re part of a team that makes real decisions and brings them to life together. You’ll have the freedom to share ideas, turn them into action, and shape the space around you literally. Here, learning isn’t a bonus. It’s part of the job.

Head of Furniture & Industrial Design

We are not looking for a Design Leader who just keeps things moving. We are looking for a steward of taste and an editor-in-chief of simplicity.

At Tylko, the Head of Furniture & Industrial Design is accountable for the overall design direction of the product portfolio. This role owns design quality end-to-end and has the authority to make clear trade-off decisions, saying “no” when needed to protect clarity, coherence, and long-term value.

You are responsible for defining and maintaining a consistent design system across products, including form language, CMF, spatial use, and digital representation. Your task is to ensure that every product is intentional, understandable, and aligned with a single, coherent design identity.

By setting clear principles and enforcing them in day-to-day decisions, you reduce unnecessary complexity and raise the standard of our portfolio from well-executed products to a clearly differentiated and purposeful offering.

The Role & The Team

You will report directly to the CPTO (Chief Product & Technology Officer) and lead the Design Division, encompassing Industrial Designers, Interior Design Leaders, Product Designers, and Configurability Experts.

This role sits at the intersection of physical craftsmanship and digital scalability. You aren't just designing furniture; you are designing parametric systems that must work flawlessly across thousands of unique configurations.

Once you join our Team, you will:

• Own the End-to-End Design Direction: You will own the design direction of the existing storage portfolio and new product categories. You will translate company strategy into clear design principles and apply them consistently across form, materials, spatial use, and digital representation.

• Evolve the Core Storage System: A key part of your role is the continued development of our storage system, which remains the core of Tylko. You will refine its form language, proportions, materials, and system logic, improving quality, clarity, and coherence across a complex, configurable portfolio.

• Expand into New Verticals & Accessories: You will define how new verticals and accessories extend from this foundation into a broader, well-structured home portfolio. You will ensure that new categories feel intentional, system-aware, and scalable, not additive or decorative.

• Set Standards Across Physical and Digital: You will operate at the intersection of physical craft and digital systems, setting standards for materials, joinery, ergonomics, sustainability, and digital representation, including configurators and 3D environments.

• Drive Business Impact Through Design: Working closely with Product, Engineering, and Growth, you will turn insights into viable, scalable products and guard quality across the portfolio using clear fit and sustainability criteria.

• Lead with Judgment and Craft: You will lead the Design Division with high standards and strong judgment, building a culture of critique, craft, and innovation, supported by modern tools and AI-enabled workflows.
