Product Design & User Experience
Zalando is Europe’s leading online platform for fashion, connecting 48+ million active customers, brands and partners across 23 markets. Our aspiration is to reimagine fashion for the good of all and be a more sustainable platform that is inclusive by design. Product Design at Zalando is a community of 200+ product designers, content designers, and user researchers.
We are part of Zalando and 1 of Europe’s leading online outlets for fashion and lifestyle products in 14 European countries. We offer our members daily, time-limited sale campaigns with discounts of up to 75% off the recommended retail price. Our highly engaged customers come back every day for the excitement of discovering a surprising product they may not have been looking for – or were not able to afford before – but that they’d love to upgrade their wardrobe with. Our growing product design team is a key part of developing and driving our strategic vision, and evolving the culture of product development within this incredibly successful business, in continuous growth mode.

We are seeking an experienced, self-motivated UI/UX designer with advanced prototyping and visual design skills, coupled with strong expertise in user experience design. You should have a proven track record of contributing to and working with design systems, leveraging tokens to create cohesive, scalable designs.
In this role, you will collaborate closely with a cross-functional team that includes a Product Manager, Engineering Manager, and Product Analyst to drive key projects focused on growth. Additionally, you will contribute to initiatives aligned with company-wide priorities and compliance requirements. Your efforts will also help ensure accessibility (a11y) standards are met to deliver inclusive, high-quality user experiences.

Key Responsibilities:

• Supporting product discovery processes.
• Defining and leading solution design efforts.
• Building strong connections with stakeholders and aligning on design goals.
• Creating assets and detailed design specifications for developers.
• Conducting design QA to uphold quality and consistency standards.
• Documenting design patterns and integrating them into the design system portal.

We value a passion for UX and UI design, paired with exceptional attention to detail. Collaboration and communication are essential to this role, as you will work closely with both the design system team and cross-functional colleagues.
An interest in emerging technologies such as AI is highly regarded and will add value to this role.
