About the role

  • Join us as a Design Engineer and help shape how rready looks, feels, and behaves as we scale our AI-native B2B SaaS platform.
  • You’ll work at the intersection of design and frontend engineering , owning user-facing experiences from early concept to polished, production-ready interfaces.
  • You design in code , build real UI components, and ship them into production so users experience interfaces that are intuitive, accessible, and delightful.
  • Design and implement user-facing interfaces end-to-end, from idea to production.
  • Ship production frontend code , not just prototypes or experiments.
  • Build scalable UI foundations through reusable components, design systems, and continuous refinement.
  • Ensure consistency, usability, and high visual and interaction quality across the product.
  • Design and build production-ready frontend components and interfaces.
  • Help maintain clean, scalable frontend architecture.

Requirements

  • User- and experience-driven: You care deeply about great user experience. You know that clarity, usability, accessibility, and performance are just as important as visual polish.
  • End-to-end ownership mindset: You take responsibility for what ships from early ideas and interaction design to production-ready frontend code. You don’t throw designs over the fence; you build, refine, and ship them.
  • Design + frontend hybrid: You’re comfortable both designing interfaces and implementing them in code . Whether you lean more design or more engineering, you enjoy working in the overlap.
  • Frontend-capable (not design-only): You confidently write and ship production frontend code , review PRs, debug UI issues, and improve existing components and interfaces over time.
  • Structured & detail-strong: You pay attention to the details that make products feel right: Spacing, states, edge cases, responsiveness, accessibility, and consistency across the system.
  • Proactive & accountable: You drive topics forward independently, identify UX or UI issues early, and follow through until things are done properly.
  • Iteration-first mindset: You enjoy experimenting, refining, and improving designs and implementations over time. You value progress and learning over chasing perfection.
  • Calm in ambiguity: When requirements are fuzzy or problems are not fully defined, you help create clarity through sketches, prototypes, and incremental implementation.
  • Tool-savvy & craft-oriented: You’re comfortable working with design and frontend tooling (e.g. Figma, component libraries, frontend frameworks) and you care about clean, maintainable UI code.
  • Strong communicator: You communicate clearly with Designers, Product Managers, and Engineers, and help align intent, constraints, and outcomes through transparent collaboration.
  • Experience working as a Design Engineer, Frontend Engineer with strong design skills, or Product Designer who codes.
  • Strong experience with modern frontend development (e.g. TypeScript, Vue.js or similar frameworks).
  • Solid understanding of UI/UX principles , interaction design, and accessibility.
  • Experience building or contributing to design systems and reusable component libraries.
  • Comfort translating product and design intent directly into production-ready UI.
  • Experience collaborating closely with Product and Engineering in cross-functional teams.
  • Experience in fast-paced environments (startup, scale-up, or product-driven teams) is a plus.
  • Strong interest in continuous improvement. You enjoy making interfaces clearer, more usable, and easier to build over time.
Benefits
  • A high-impact role in an AI-native B2B SaaS startup where your work directly improves how users experience rready from clarity and usability to visual polish and interaction quality.
  • Real ownership of user-facing experiences : from early concepts and interaction design to production-ready frontend implementation, with the mandate to continuously raise the quality of our UI and UX.
  • A role at the intersection of Design and Frontend Engineering : you’ll design interfaces and ship production frontend code , ideal if you enjoy end-to-end responsibility from idea to shipped experience.
  • The opportunity to build scalable UI foundations : design systems, reusable components, patterns, documentation, and tooling that reduce friction and improve quality across product teams.
  • A truly international team, with colleagues from Switzerland, Germany, Namibia, Greece, Brazil, the Netherlands, and more.
  • Enterprise exposure through close collaboration with our product and customer-facing teams supporting accounts such as BMW, Tetra Pak, Swisscom, Implenia, or LGT , with real-world requirements around usability, accessibility, and consistency at scale.
  • A flexible work setup with the autonomy and trust needed to do focused, high-quality work and iterate thoughtfully on real user problems.
  • Memorable team events from ski trips to our annual offsite abroad.
