UX/UI Designer

UX/UI Designer Company Orcrist builds the Orcrist Intelligence Platform (OIP), a Kubernetes-based data intelligence system delivered as SaaS or self-hosted/on-prem (including air-gapped deployments). We help defense, law-enforcement, and enterprise teams turn complex data into actionable intelligence—securely and responsibly. Role Own UX and interaction design for Innovation’s incubated initiatives. You’ll translate ambiguous problem spaces into clear workflows, prototype experiences in Figma, validate usability quickly, and deliver adoption-ready handoff packages that delivery teams can productize confidently. What you'll do Map analyst workflows, define jobs-to-be-done, and translate mission needs into measurable UX outcomes. Design end-to-end prototype experiences (flows + clickable prototypes) spanning search, analysis, enrichment outputs, and reporting surfaces. Define reusable interaction patterns and ensure designs align with core primitives (IAM/audit/multitenancy) and platform constraints (cloud/on-prem/air-gapped). Run rapid validation loops: usability testing, synthesis, iteration, and (where applicable) pilot support. Produce adoption-grade handoffs: annotated flows/specs, component guidance, edge cases, acceptance criteria, and integration backlog notes. Champion accessibility and data-dense usability for graph/geospatial/table-heavy experiences (WCAG/508). About You 5+ years designing complex B2B/enterprise products; portfolio required. Strong Figma practice and design-system documentation habits that engineers can implement. Experience designing data-dense analytics UX (graph/geospatial/records browsing) with performance and accessibility tradeoffs in mind. Comfortable collaborating tightly with product and TypeScript engineers in fast prototyping cycles. Eligible to work in Germany; EU/NATO citizenship preferred for export-controlled projects. Nice-to-haves Experience conducting research or pilots with government/defense/public-safety users. Working knowledge of modern frontend constraints (React/Next.js) to tighten design ↔ engineering iteration. German language (B1+). What We Offer Remote-first in Germany with regular Berlin workshops, 30 days vacation, equipment learning budget. High autonomy and real scope: prototypes spanning ingest → processing → ML enrichment → search → UI. Mission-driven work with a strong culture of documentation and high-quality handoffs.
