Key Responsibilities
Who we’re looking forCraft is the baseline here, not a nice-to-have. What sets you apart is range and judgment: you know what good looks like, you know when something looks right but feels wrong, and you can get a team there with you.
This role is not for you if…
- Own the full loop. Take a user problem from rough idea to shipped interface: partner or write the brief, design the flow, prototype it, partner with engineering, ship it with as few handoffs as possible.
- Use AI as a force multiplier. Explore and prototype with AI tools, Figma, or code, whatever gets there fastest. Your taste is the editorial layer: you know when AI-generated UI is wrong even when it looks right, and you fix it.
- Solve from first principles. Reason about the right interaction for the user problem instead of reaching for a component library.
- Sweat the final 10%. Craft the details others miss, the ones that make a compliance product feel trustworthy.
- Work in small, focused pods. No layers, no waiting. You'll work closely with two or three others who share the same model.
- Be accountable to outcomes. Know the metric your team is moving. Measure your week by what changed for users, not by screens delivered.
- Stretch beyond design. Read the API spec, engage users directly, build in code when it's faster than Figma.
- Fluency in English (C1+) is required. German (C1) is a plus, but not a must-have.
- Genuine design craft with a track record: you've shipped interfaces real users navigated without explanation, and you can point to the metric that moved.
- Strong visual sensibility, high standards, and an eye for detail.
- Range across Design, Product, and Engineering: you've gone from user problem to testable prototype without waiting for a brief, and used AI coding tools to build something real. You're not dependent on an engineer to realize your vision.
- You've built personal AI workflows that make you meaningfully faster, and you know when to trust, edit, or reject AI output.
- Comfortable in ambiguity: you ship, collect signal, and iterate rather than waiting for full clarity.
- You are excited to show your work (portfolio or examples).
- Ideally you've worked on products where getting it wrong has real consequences (fintech, healthtech, logistics, compliance), but that's not a must-have.
- Berlin-based or willing to relocate.
- You want a PM to define the problem and an engineer to implement the solution.
- You resist working in code or with AI.
- You hand off polished Figma files and believe your job is done.
- You judge yourself on taste alone, not outcomes.
