You are a confident UI/UX designer, thoughtful problem-solver, and systems thinker. You drive the design and delivery of digital
products, working closely with multidisciplinary teams and clients to create intuitive, coherent and meaningful user experiences.
You understand that digital products today are shaped by strategic intention, systemic consistency, and by intelligent, AI-driven
interactions – bringing this perspective into your design decisions and daily work.
Contribute to and evolve design systems in Figma within a certified partner environment, leveraging advanced workflows and
tooling. Your role is to help define, design and implement product experiences that translate brand intent into usable, scalable
and future-ready digital systems.
We are Edenspiekermann — an independent design consultancy with 40+ years of experience helping world-leading organizations
invent, build, and evolve their products. Our Product Strategy practice works directly with product teams at the intersection of
market insight, design excellence, and AI-driven development. We are looking for a Design Strategy Director to lead this practice
and grow it.

WHAT TO EXPECT * Design product experiences and interfaces across web and digital platforms, from early concepts to shippable detail. * Work within and contribute to design systems — components, tokens, patterns — keeping consistency across products and brands. * Use AI tools throughout your process: research synthesis, ideation, rapid prototyping, content and asset generation. * Collaborate directly with strategists, creatives and engineers as one team, not across a handoff. * Present and defend your design decisions to peers and clients with clear reasoning. * Take ownership of your work end to end, from brief to launch. YOUR COMPETENCIES * 0–2 years of experience in product, UI or UX design (internships, freelance or junior roles all count) with a portfolio that shows real thinking, not just polish. * Strong fundamentals in visual and interaction design: layout, typography, hierarchy, colour. * Confident in Figma, including components, variants and basic token/variable usage. * Experience in AI (coding, generative images, workflow optimization) * Genuine interest in AI tools for design and product work, and a willingness to learn new ones fast. * Curiosity about design systems and how they scale across products and teams. * Good written and spoken in English and German. * Based in Germany or the Czech Republic (required). WHAT YOU CAN LOOK FORWARD TO * A seat at the table from day one: real projects, real clients, real ownership, not just production tickets. * Mentorship from senior designers and design engineers who'll push your craft and your systems thinking. * A team that treats AI as a shared obsession, not a mandate. Weekly show & tells where everyone shares what they've found, including the failures. * Studios in Hamburg, Berlin, Munich and Prague, and a genuinely small, senior team instead of a large hierarchy to climb. * Room to shape how design systems and AI-assisted design work at OH-SO. This practice is still being built, and your voice counts. If you're early in your design career and want to grow fast inside an AI-native team, working on real products for iconic brands, we'd love to hear from you.
