Overview

We’re looking for a Senior Product Designer (m/f/d) with strong product thinking and a high bar for craft. Someone who cares deeply about how a product works, feels, and fits together as a whole.

In Short

  • Own product problems from early exploration through delivery and iteration, with clear responsibility for outcomes
  • Frame problems clearly, define goals, and make design decisions with explicit reasoning and tradeoffs
  • Design high-quality interaction and visual experiences with strong hierarchy, clarity, and attention to detail
  • Balance detail and direction by knowing when to zoom in and when to zoom out to maintain coherence across the product
  • Actively raise the quality and consistency of our visual design, interaction patterns, and overall design language
  • Help shape and evolve our Design System so new work strengthens the product as a whole
  • Collaborate closely with Product Managers and Engineers, challenging ideas openly and working as one team
  • Support experiments such as A/B tests and use qualitative and quantitative insights to learn and iterate
  • Use tools like Lovable, Cursor, Claude Code, or similar, to prototype and explore ideas efficiently
  • Ensure design intent is well translated into shipped product - taking responsibility for the final user experience, not just the concept

Requirements

  • A strong portfolio showing thoughtful product design and experiences that feel intentional, useful, and visually confident
  • Strong product thinking with a user-centered mindset
  • A high bar for craft, including visual clarity, interaction quality, consistency, and polish
  • A builder mindset: you actively use the newest AI tools to prototype, automate, and bring ideas to life
  • Sound design judgment, with the ability to explain decisions, articulate tradeoffs, and apply design skills where they create real value
  • The ability to zoom in on details while maintaining a clear sense of the overall product experience
  • Experience working with cross-functional product teams
  • Comfort learning from shipped outcomes and using qualitative and quantitative insights to iterate
  • Excellent communication skills in English

Benefits

  • You have a real impact on the learning experience of millions of students worldwide
  • You join one of Europe’s leading EdTech startups with global reach and award-winning products
  • You help shape product and design decisions, not just execute on briefs
  • You work closely with a collaborative product and engineering team that values design quality
  • You grow in an environment that encourages learning, experimentation, and ownership
  • We offer market-competitive compensation, virtual shares, and flexible remote work, with the option to work from our Munich office
  • Regular team events, knowledge sharing, and a culture that values improvement and initiative
