What the job really is

About the Role

This is a foundational product engineering role at a small, high-caliber founding team building an AI-powered platform for private market operations — serving asset servicers and asset managers. You will lead the design and development of the core interface through which operations teams interact with AI agents: reviewing outputs, approving workflows, and acting on automated recommendations with confidence.

You will have outsized influence on the product's design system, UX patterns, and the human-in-the-loop experiences that make AI output trustworthy and actionable. This is a rare opportunity to shape how financial operations professionals experience AI at work, from the ground up.

What You'll Do

  • Develop and maintain the product's design system and UX patterns for a complex, workflow-driven application.

  • Build product interfaces that connect users to AI agents and diverse data sources (e.g. emails, portals, bank feeds, file storage).

  • Design and implement human-in-the-loop flows for reviewing, approving, and acting on AI agent outputs such as journal entries, reconciliations, and reporting packages.

  • Conduct user research and usability testing with operations stakeholders to identify pain points and iteratively refine product features.

What We're Looking For

Required:

  • 1–7 years of professional frontend development experience.

  • Strong product intuition and UX craft — you think in flows and user outcomes, not just components.

  • Proficiency in Tailwind CSS for UI styling; comfort with TypeScript and React.

  • Experience developing, documenting, or evolving design systems for complex applications.

  • A track record building workflow-driven interfaces that involve human review, exception handling, or approval steps.

  • Proven ability to conduct user research and usability testing to inform design decisions.

Nice to Have:

  • Interest in AI-agent products and designing for trust when presenting automated outputs.

  • Familiarity with private markets, financial operations, or enterprise B2B SaaS environments.

  • Enthusiasm for working in a small, high-caliber founding team environment where your decisions have lasting product impact.

Compensation & Benefits

  • Salary: €70,000 – €110,000 per year, depending on experience.

  • Visa sponsorship is available for this role.

Location

This is an on-site role based in Berlin, Germany. You will be working alongside the founding team in person. Visa sponsorship is available for qualified candidates who require it.
