UI/UX Designer (m/f/x) - Leipzig

#NEWISBEAUTIFUL

You are a confident UI/UX designer, thoughtful problem-solver, and systems thinker. You drive the design and delivery of digital products, working closely with multidisciplinary teams and clients to create intuitive, coherent and meaningful user experiences. You understand that digital products today are shaped by strategic intention, systemic consistency, and by intelligent, AI-driven interactions – bringing this perspective into your design decisions and daily work.

Contribute to and evolve design systems in Figma within a certified partner environment, leveraging advanced workflows and tooling. Your role is to help define, design and implement product experiences that translate brand intent into usable, scalable and future-ready digital systems.

We are Edenspiekermann — an independent design consultancy with 40+ years of experience helping world-leading organizations invent, build, and evolve their products. Our Product Strategy practice works directly with product teams at the intersection of market insight, design excellence, and AI-driven development. We are looking for a Design Strategy Director to lead this practice and grow it.
