#NEWISBEAUTIFUL
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.Your Tasks
- Create high-quality, optimized 3D assets and motion designs for in-vehicle HMI systems, ensuring performance and visual clarity in embedded environments
- Design functional animations and transitions that support user orientation, feedback, and system understanding
- Collaborate closely with UX/UI designers to translate interaction concepts into coherent motion behavior
- Ensure all motion and 3D work aligns with the design system, brand guidelines, and visual standards
- Prepare and deliver production-ready assets suitable for real-time rendering and engineering handoff
- Contribute to maintaining a consistent and scalable motion language across the overall system
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 professional experience in 3D design and motion for digital or real-time systems
- Proven ability to design motion that is functional, purposeful, and usability-driven
- Solid understanding of performance, hardware, and rendering constraints in embedded or real-time environments
- High proficiency with professional 3D and motion tools (e.g. Cinema 4D, Blender, Maya, After Effects or equivalent)
- Ability to collaborate effectively with UX/UI designers, engineers, and product teams
- Strong sense for visual consistency, timing, easing, and system-wide coherence
- Experience working within design systems and established visual guidelines
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
We Offer
- 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, a dog-friendly office and meditation to promote work-life balance
- We balance work with family and private life (with a potential four day week if needed)
- Benefits as Urban Sports Club, food club, regular team gatherings
- Inhouse coaching and mentoring
