About &why

We create digital experiences that feel human, move emotions, and challenge conventions. As a certified B Corp, we care about how we work just as much as what we make — ethically, collaboratively, and with respect for people, planet, and craft.

Our work spans digital platforms, feature-rich product ecosystems, and technically ambitious interactive experiences. We ship real products used at scale - and we design them beyond the happy path.


What you’ll do

  • Design complex digital products and interactive systems - not just interfaces
  • Translate product requirements into robust user flows, states, edge cases, and scalable interaction logic
  • Create prototypes that validate behaviour, not just visuals
  • Design for system consistency across features, platforms, and devices
  • Collaborate closely with Engineering to ensure feasibility and clean implementation
  • Contribute to immersive and technically ambitious experiences (e.g. motion-driven, realtime, 3D contexts)
  • Balance conceptual thinking with precise, production-ready execution


Your Profile

This role requires hands-on experience in shipping complex digital products.

  • 2+ years in Product & Interaction Design within digital product environments
  • Strong portfolio showing real, shipped products with functional depth (clearly outlining your role)
  • Experience designing flows, system behaviour, and interaction logic - including edge cases
  • Confident working beyond static screens: motion principles, micro-interactions, prototyping
  • Comfortable discussing constraints, trade-offs, and technical feasibility with engineers
  • Good UI craft - but grounded in product thinking, not decoration

If your background focuses mainly on campaign pages or visual/UI-heavy work without deep product or interaction complexity, this role is likely not the right fit.


Our Offer

  • Short decision-making paths and real ownership from early on
  • Structured growth through regular feedback, coaching, and reviews
  • Annual training budget for your professional development
  • High-visibility, ambitious digital product projects
  • Hybrid setup (1 - 2 office days/week in BER or MUC)
  • A collaborative environment that values craft, responsibility, and long-term impact
  • Additional benefits (fitness support, partner discounts, JobRad bike leasing)


Interested?

We’d love to hear from you. Please send:

  • Your portfolio with shipped digital product case studies (incl. your role and contribution)
  • Work that demonstrates interaction logic, system thinking, states and edge cases — not just visual design
  • A short note on your experience in complex product environments (agency or comparable)
  • Your earliest start date and salary expectations
  • Your preferred office location (BER or MUC)

We review applications based on proven product depth and interaction complexity.
