At COBE, we design and build digital products that don't just work, they feel really good to use. We're all about creating beautiful experiences, and that's exactly why we're looking for you: a UI Designer who builds interfaces with genuine instinct and doesn't just use design systems, but actively shapes them.
What you’ll do
* You take the design lead on multiple projects and work closely with an ambitious team
* You internalize our brand-driven design methodology (UXi) and create meaningful user experiences that truly fit the brand
* You design digital interfaces with high visual quality, typography, layout, spacing, hierarchy: consistent and clean across entire flows
* You work component-based and actively evolve design systems (patterns, component logic, guidelines, tokens)
* You make design decisions with intention and can back them up, in the context of users, product goals, and brand
* You set qualitative guardrails to help the team move faster, stay consistent, and level up (reviews, UI checks, quality bars)
* You work closely with Product, Engineering, and Brand, from dev-ready designs to support during sprints
* You proactively seek feedback from experienced colleagues to ensure high quality before deadlines
* You spot opportunities to improve the design process and drive changes together with the team
* You lead, organize, and moderate presentations for key milestones, workshops, or creative sessions within your projects
* You stay on top of UI trends and share your knowledge within COBE
* You create effort estimates and help PMs keep workload and capacity aligned
* You join pitches and take ownership of the brand-driven design part
What you bring
* You have at least three years of professional experience as a UI Designer at an agency or in a relevant in-house role
* You make design decisions with intention and can back them up with a strong eye for typography, color, layout, and hierarchy
* High craft-level UI quality down to the details (states, responsiveness, edge cases, etc.)
* Strong understanding of design systems and component-based workflows
* Solid Figma skills: Auto Layout, Variants, Tokens and you know how to build files that teams can actually work with
* Experience collaborating closely with Engineering (e.g. component logic, handover processes, token strategies)
* A portfolio of real digital interfaces showing visual clarity and consistency across multiple screens and flows - we're excited to see it!
* You enjoy coaching other designers visually and raising the bar for UI quality across the team
* Your German is at least C-level and your English at least B-level
Nice to have
* You've built complex, scaling interfaces before: SaaS, platforms, data-heavy UIs
* A background in branding or graphic design or a strong sense of how brand and product UI work together
What we offer
* Work from anywhere: Office, home, favorite café, or mountain cabin, you decide where you do your best work
* Your day, your rules: As long as hours and deadlines are met, you work the way that works best for you
* More vacation every year: One extra day added each year, up to 30 days total
* Ideas over titles: The best idea wins, no rigid hierarchies, just real collaboration
* Flexible hours: Build up overtime and take it back whenever you need it
