About us Bakken & Bæck is a technology-driven design studio working out of Oslo, Amsterdam, Bonn, Barcelona and London.
Building digital products, brands, and businesses, we help ambitious companies identify, explore and respond to new opportunities.

We're committed to cultivating a diverse and inclusive workplace where everyone feels comfortable, regardless of their identity, experiences, and beliefs.
We want BB to be a place where you can try out new things with the risk of failing, where you can take ownership over your own work without being micromanaged, and where there's a low barrier for coming up with ideas — no matter your job title or discipline.

We strongly believe in flexibility, knowing that creativity doesn't always happen between 9 and 5.
At BB you'll be given a lot of freedom, which means managing your own priorities, trying out new things, and working a flexible hours scheme.
