Senior / Staff Product Designer

About the Role We're a well-funded, Series A AI-powered procurement intelligence platform serving the industrial sector — helping companies modernise how they manage spend, suppliers, and sourcing through a suite of AI agents. Our product is used daily by non-technical procurement professionals who need AI to feel natural, trustworthy, and genuinely useful — not like a black box bolted onto a legacy workflow. We're hiring a Senior or Staff Product Designer to join a small, high-craft design team embedded closely with product managers, engineers, and domain experts. This is a pivotal role: you'll define how agentic AI capabilities surface in the product — from the moment an agent starts working, through to how findings and recommendations are presented and acted upon. Great design here doesn't just improve usability; it directly determines whether powerful AI features get adopted and whether customers realise real cost savings. What You'll Do • Define interaction patterns for agentic AI capabilities — covering status states ("the agent is working"), result surfaces ("here's what it found"), and human-in-the-loop collaboration moments. • Design workflows that position AI and human judgment as collaborators, not competitors, with a clear focus on trust and transparency. • Produce short-horizon vision work (3–6 month horizon) as runnable prototypes and tangible artefacts that align and guide the broader team. • Raise overall product craft and coherence as engineering velocity and feature output scale. • Work directly in code for last-mile polish — check out PRs and fine-tune interactions before features ship. • Partner with product managers, engineers, and procurement domain experts to translate complex, data-heavy workflows into clear, usable experiences. What We're Looking For Required: • Senior-level product design experience with a strong portfolio of shipped work — ideally in B2B SaaS, complex workflows, or data-heavy products. • A "block-shaped" designer: solid across visual design, interaction design, product thinking, and prototyping in code — not a single-specialty generalist. • Demonstrated ability to prototype beyond Figma — you build runnable prototypes that communicate intent, behaviour, and edge cases. • Comfortable checking out PRs and making direct code-level interaction tweaks before shipping (this is a hard requirement, not a nice-to-have). • Thoughtful, well-formed opinions on how AI should appear in products — trust, transparency, appropriate automation, and avoiding over-automation. • Comfortable operating in ambiguity and inventing new patterns for genuinely novel problems. • Active daily user of AI tools (e.g. Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor) as part of your research, ideation, and prototyping workflow. Nice to Have: • Experience designing for non-technical users in complex B2B domains (e.g. procurement, supply chain, manufacturing, finance). • Prior work on agentic or autonomous AI features in a shipped product. • Familiarity with industrial or procurement software contexts. Location & Work Arrangement This role is based on-site in Munich, Germany . Candidates must be able to work from the Munich office. Visa sponsorship is not available for this position. Why This Role • Work at the frontier of agentic AI product design — inventing patterns that don't yet exist. • Join a well-resourced, Series A company backed by top-tier European and global investors, with strong customer traction in the industrial sector. • Small design team = high ownership, high visibility, and direct impact on product direction. • Collaborate with a team that includes alumni from leading strategy, consulting, and enterprise software organisations.
