Job Description

HEY THERE!

We're hiring a Senior Product Designer to join the Tracking Experience (TX) squad — the team behind the heart of Yazio. Food tracking, AI-driven daily insights, and the habit-building flows users open multiple times a day. The screens that are the product for most of our users.

This isn't a role where you'll be handed a brief and asked to make it pretty. You'll be the design voice in the squad, owning the journey from discovery to handoff. You'll shape what we research and how, design mobile experiences that hold up under real daily use, and present your work directly to senior stakeholders.

If you get genuinely curious about why users behave the way they do — and you have the visual craft to turn that into something that feels effortless on a small screen — this one's for you.

Let's shape the future of nutrition together and make Yazio the most successful nutrition app worldwide.

This role is 100% remote and open to candidates based in Germany, Spain, Portugal, or the U.K.

YOUR MISSION

  • Design the everyday food tracking experience: meal logging, daily AI insights, and the habit-forming flows users open multiple times a day. Every tap has to earn its place, and reducing cognitive load is what keeps a habit alive over weeks, not just days

  • Own discovery from start to finish. Define and execute research plans for new initiatives, pick the right method for the question (user interviews, usability tests, assisted testing, A/B experiments), and translate qualitative and quantitative signals into design decisions that move both user behavior and our OKRs

  • Deliver high-fidelity mobile UI you're proud of — clean, considered, polished. The bar is high here because users see this work every single day, and small details compound fast at our scale

  • Prototype fast using AI-powered tools (Lovable, Replit) alongside Figma. Generate multiple directions quickly, then use your taste to pick and refine the strongest one

  • Partner closely with engineering throughout. Validate feasibility early, align on implementation, and stay involved until launch so the final build matches the design intent

  • Present your work at our bi-weekly Product Review: async Looms first, then live to senior stakeholders. You'll talk through your design decisions, take direct feedback, and contribute your point of view when it matters

  • Contribute to our design system and project libraries, helping us build a consistent foundation that scales across the product org


YOUR PROFILE

  • You've designed core flows in a B2C mobile product — the screens users come back to every day. You enjoy thinking about how small details shape long-term experience, and you bring a behavioral lens to how habits form on a small screen

  • You have real mobile depth. You design for thumbs and small screens by default, and your portfolio shows the kind of considered mobile work that comes from spending real time in the medium

  • You run discovery without being asked. You don't need anyone to tell you to talk to users; you'll define the question, choose the method, run the research, and come back with insights that actually change the design

  • You have strong visual craft and a high bar for UI quality. You can tell instantly when something looks off, and you won't ship something you're not proud of

  • You're fluent with AI design tools (Lovable, Replit, Framer, Dovetail or similar) and use them in your day-to-day workflow. Bonus if you've worked on product features that incorporate AI, not just on designing with AI

  • You're a clear, confident communicator. You can present your rationale to non-designers, take feedback from senior stakeholders well, and share your point of view when you see things differently

  • You thrive with full ownership and autonomy. You bring strong judgment to the work and run with it, rather than waiting for sign-off at every step

Bonus points for…

  • Experience designing for health, fitness, or another habit-driven consumer product where motivation and habit formation matter

  • Experience designing product features that incorporate AI (recommendations, insights, automation)

  • Familiarity with research and discovery tools like Maze or Dovetail

  • Gamification experience — not required, genuinely valued

WHY US?

  • An exciting product with millions of users in over 150 countries, driven by our mission to transform the world through healthy eating

  • A remote-first setup: work 100% from home, join a co-working space or work abroad for several weeks per year

  • 30 vacation days to relax and recharge, plus 5 child sick days if your little one needs you

  • A focus-driven culture that values efficiency over long hours—no overtime expectations, and if it happens, you get that time back!

  • A high-impact environment where your work drives real change—short decision-making processes and no micromanagement

  • A team culture where ambition and balance go hand in hand, supported by strong connections—from our fully covered company retreat to team meetups and virtual coffee breaks

  • Tools and support to do your best work: MacBook, monitor and €1,000 annual learning budget, plus regular feedback and career development

  • A truly international team with English as our company language and a shared commitment to growth and well-being—supported by Sunday Supplements and Nilo Health
