Product Design Lead – Digital Health

• Own end-to-end product design from ambiguous problem discovery through user research, hypotheses, prototyping, UI design, handover, QA, and iteration.
• Lead discovery for new strategic product bets, especially beyond the current DiGA offering — including patient, healthcare professional, and multi-stakeholder workflows.
• Translate ambiguity into structure: define the problem, identify assumptions, frame testable hypotheses, propose lean discovery plans, and create clear decision points for the team.
• Run focused user discovery with patients, healthcare professionals, internal experts, and other stakeholders (mostly in German at the moment) — turning insights into sharp product direction rather than broad research outputs.
• Create simple, high-quality UX concepts and user journeys that make complex clinical, behavioural, data, AI, and regulatory constraints understandable and usable.
• Design polished, buildable UI — including high-fidelity screens, interaction details, states, edge cases, and annotated specs that engineering can confidently implement.
• Build and maintain a pragmatic design system that improves speed and consistency without becoming process-heavy or slowing down delivery.
• Collaborate closely with product, engineering, data science, clinical, regulatory, and care teams to bring ideas to life through experiments, prototypes, MVPs, and iterative refinement.
• Move fast without losing quality: make trade-offs explicit, reuse existing patterns where sensible, and avoid over-perfecting work before we have evidence.
• Leverage AI thoughtfully in the product experience, exploring new interaction patterns while designing for trust, safety, transparency, and clinical relevance.
• Raise the design bar at Una by bringing strong design judgement, clear communication, structured critique, and a culture of user-centered decision making.

Requirements

• 5+ years of hands‑on product design experience, ideally in a fast-moving startup, scaleup, or similarly ambiguous environment.
• A strong portfolio showing end‑to‑end ownership: from unclear problem space to discovery, hypotheses, prototypes, polished UI, and shipped product.
• Strong UX, UI, and product thinking — you can simplify complex workflows, create buildable designs, and make clear trade‑offs.
• Proven ability to lead strategic discovery for new product bets: asking the right questions, testing assumptions quickly, and turning insights into product direction.
• A bias for speed, ownership, and learning — you know when to go deep, when to ship a pragmatic V1, and how to keep a team moving.
• Excellent collaboration with product, engineering, data science, clinical, regulatory, and care teams — especially when the path is not yet clear.
• Professional‑level German and English — written and spoken — including the ability to conduct research and review nuanced user‑facing copy in German.
• Experience with design systems and the craft to produce high‑quality, consistent, buildable interfaces.
• Curiosity for AI‑powered product experiences and how to design them responsibly, safely, and simply.
• Bonus: Experience operating in (German) healthcare.
