Director of Product Design

Client: B2B Enterprise SaaS
Location: Berlin, Germany (visa + relocation support offered)
Work style: on-site, full time
Package: €120k–160k + stock options (valued at €2,350 each)

For truly exceptional candidates, there is room to go above this range — so if your experience stands out, please reach out.

We’re partnering with a rapidly scaling European startup that has just raised a major funding round to transform enterprise software. They’re building a modular, API-first platform tackling some of the most complex challenges in B2B SaaS and design is central to their mission.

This is a rare opportunity to step in as Director of Product Design, shaping not just a product but a multi-product ecosystem from the ground up. You’ll set the design vision, build and grow a high-performing team, and create experiences on par with the world’s best software (think Stripe, Linear, Notion).

What You’ll Do

  • Lead the design function end-to-end, from strategy to execution.

  • Build and manage a team of exceptional product designers.

  • Define and scale a design system that spans multiple products and touchpoints.

  • Balance hands-on prototyping and craft with setting long-term vision.

  • Partner closely with engineering, product, and leadership to connect design directly to business outcomes.

What We’re Looking For

  • Proven track record of world-class design quality in B2B enterprise SaaS or API-first platforms.

  • Experience leading small (2 or more) design teams, not just as a senior IC.

  • Strong portfolio that demonstrates polish, systems thinking, and product impact.

  • Tenure showing commitment and results (2–3+ years in key leadership roles).

  • A product-driven mindset with the ability to link design to strategic outcomes.

What You’ll Get

  • Competitive salary.

  • Stock options designed to reward long-term commitment.

  • Visa sponsorship + full relocation package to Berlin.

  • The chance to shape the design culture at a company that is redefining enterprise software.

This isn’t just another design leadership role. It’s a chance to set the standard for an entire category at a company poised to become a market leader.
