Product Designer HMI / Automotive Focus: UI (m/f/x)

Your mission We are entering a multi-year collaboration with a major vehicle manufacturer to design advanced in-vehicle digital experiences. Our work spans early R&D exploration through to production-grade design delivery, supporting several parallel development tracks and working closely with internal product and engineering teams.

Design intuitive, future-oriented HMI interfaces across multiple (in-vehicle) displays Create excellent UI designs for complex (in-vehicle) displays Develop components, icons, visual elements and screen layouts aligned with the design system Translate UX requirements and interaction flows into clear, production-ready visual concepts Collaborate with UX designers, prototypers, motion designers and engineering teams Maintain visual consistency across multiple surfaces, resolutions and themes Support handover by preparing documentation, specs and visual assets for development Your Profile Automotive & HMI Experience (such as Android Automotive OS, infotainment, navigation, ADAS, HMI, connected services, mobility or other future mobility services) Experience with complex, scaled product development or delivery programs (ideally Automotive & Mobility experience working with OEM, Tier1 or Agency/Consultancy) Understanding of driver context, cognitive load and specific test conditions Quality, Safety and Compliance Mindset (Commercial Vehicles HMI ≠ Consumer Apps) Strong visual design skills and a portfolio demonstrating complex UI work Excellent proficiency in Figma, including components, variants and design systems Ability to create clean, scalable visual assets suited for embedded or automotive environments Strong understanding of typography, color, layout, contrast and hierarchy Bonus Basic familiarity with ISO standards Experience with commercial vehicles Ability to create iconography or illustration tailored to HMI contexts Familiarity with motion design for functional transitions Understanding of automotive constraints (legibility, luminance, themes, day/night modes) Experience preparing assets for embedded or real-time rendering systems Experience designing for VR/AR A central role in a dynamic, independent design consultancy with an international portfolio spanning enterprise product design, city identity, design systems, and regulated industries Direct access to partners and senior leadership - flat hierarchies, real autonomy, and room to shape how we do product strategy A dedicated team of high-profile designers and strategists driven by a no-ego, high-craft culture Personal responsibility, space for your own ideas, and the opportunity to grow with the company and the practice 30 days paid vacation, hybrid work, and a dog-friendly Berlin office Work-life balance support including a potential four-day week if needed Benefits including Urban Sports Club, food club, and ESPI cuisine Regular team gatherings and in-house coaching and mentoring We value diversity and therefore welcome all applications – regardless of gender, nationality, ethnic and social origin, religion/beliefs, disability, age, and sexual orientation and identity.
