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

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

• Participation as a central team member of a dynamic design consultancy, self-determined and independent work with direct connection to our partners, management and colleagues
• The best team in the world :)
• Flat hierarchies and the opportunity to contribute and implement your own ideas
• A lot of personal responsibility, room for creativity and personal development, and thus the chance to grow together with the company
• 30 days paid vacation, hybrid-work and meditation to promote work-life balance
• We balance work with family and private life (with a potential four day week if needed)
• Inhouse 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.
