Product Designer
About the Role
This is a high-impact design role at a fast-growing AI-powered learning platform used by tens of millions of students globally. You'll sit at the center of product development, working closely with engineering and senior leadership to shape AI-native experiences that raise the bar for what education software can feel like.
What You'll Do
Own entire product areas end-to-end — from conception through delivery — shipping ideas to millions of students within days.
Elevate every touchpoint students see, touch, and feel through exceptional UI craft and motion design.
Build and scale a design system from the ground up, with curated components and rigorous quality standards that make excellence easy to replicate.
Pioneer AI-native design by developing AI-assisted workflows and AI-native product experiences that change how the team researches, ideates, and ships.
Set the visual and interaction quality standard for the team, making your work the reference point others aspire to.
What We're Looking For
Several years of product design experience with a portfolio that demonstrates work which moved metrics, delighted users, and shows genuine craft obsession — portfolio quality matters more than tenure.
Proven ability to guide and mentor more junior designers.
Active, enthusiastic user of AI tools (e.g. for prototyping, research, design review) — you see them as a multiplier, not a novelty.
Systems thinker who cares about scaling quality across a product, not just building a pretty component library; familiarity with code-first design systems is a strong plus.
Background in consumer apps or fast-paced product environments where shipping speed and quality coexist.
Ability to simplify complex user journeys into experiences that feel obvious and effortless.
Bias toward action — you reach for prototypes and experiments before presentations and debates.
Builder mentality; bonus points if you've shipped a side project end-to-end or have ever opened a pull/merge request.
Direct communicator who gives and receives honest feedback without ego or territoriality.
Location
On-site in Berlin, Germany. Visa sponsorship is not available for this role.
