About The Role
This is a rare opportunity to join a small, elite product team at a Series A/B AI-powered EdTech platform that reaches tens of millions of students across the globe. The company is going all-in on design craft and AI-native experiences — and this hire sits at the centre of that shift.
You'll have direct access to C-level leadership, own entire product areas end-to-end, and ship work that lands in the hands of millions of students within days. If you're obsessed with craft, energised by AI as a design multiplier, and thrive in a fast-moving consumer environment, this role is built for you.
The platform operates in the EdTech / consumer mobile app space, offering AI tutoring, study notes, practice tests, flashcards, and homework tools to students in over 30 countries.
What You'll Do
Own complete product areas from conception through delivery — collaborating directly with C-level and engineering to ship to millions of users. Raise the bar on UI excellence and motion design, setting a new quality standard across everything students see, touch, and feel. Build and scale a design system from the ground up — curated references, stellar components, sharp reviews — making quality easy to replicate at speed. Pioneer AI-native design: develop AI-assisted workflows and AI-native product experiences that transform how the team researches, ideates, and ships. Set the reference point for the team — creating UIs students want to screenshot and details they feel but can't name.
What We're Looking For
Required
A strong portfolio that demonstrates work which moved metrics and delighted users — portfolio quality matters more than years on the CV. Several years of product design experience with the ability to guide more junior designers. Proven ability to ship product designs end-to-end, from early concept through to production. Active, fluent use of AI tools across prototyping, research, and shipping — you see AI as a multiplier, not a novelty. Systems thinker who cares about scaling quality across a product — code-first design systems, AI-powered design reviews, or whatever works at speed and scale. Craft obsession: details are the design; you push back until the bar is raised. Bias toward action — prototypes over presentations, experiments over endless debate. Builder mentality: comfortable getting hands dirty; bonus points if you've shipped a side project end-to-end or opened a merge request. Team-first attitude with directness, no ego, and no territorial behaviour.
Nice to Have
Background in consumer mobile app design (especially high-growth, high-engagement products). Experience designing AI-native or AI-assisted product features. Familiarity with EdTech, social learning, or consumer education products.
Location & Work Arrangement
This role is based on-site in Berlin, Germany. Candidates must be able to work from the Berlin office. Visa sponsorship is not available — applicants must have the right to work in Germany.
About The Company
A Series A/B-backed, Berlin-based EdTech company building one of Europe's largest AI-powered learning platforms for students. The product combines peer-generated study content with a comprehensive suite of AI learning tools — including an AI tutor, practice tests, summaries, homework scanning, flashcards, and more — serving students across 32+ countries. The team is 51–200 people and growing fast, with a culture that rewards craft, speed, and curiosity.
