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
