Pliant, a European B2B payments fintech headquartered in Berlin, is hiring a Senior Product Designer for design systems. The role splits time between shipping product features embedded in a team and owning the evolution of the design system, including leading its evolution for AI-assisted workflows. The work spans web and mobile applications, internal tools and data dashboards. Berlin is the main location, with flexibility to work remotely or hybrid from Berlin, London, Vienna or Helsinki within +/- 3 hours of GMT.

AI skillsThis role asks for AI & agentic skills, exactly what we teach at Into Design Systems

What you'll do

  • Own the design system domain: components, tokens, patterns and documentation, keeping it consistent and high-quality as team and product grow
  • Embed in a product team and design end-to-end features across the web platform, mobile app, internal tools and dashboards, from user flows and wireframes to high-fidelity UI and prototypes
  • Restructure tokens, components and documentation so AI agents can read and use them, enabling prototypes that map one-to-one to the code
  • Partner closely with engineering to keep the design system and codebase in sync, aligning naming, tokens and component APIs
  • Define and champion standards, review component usage across flows and help other designers move faster within a shared system
  • Collaborate with product managers, engineers and stakeholders from discovery through delivery
  • Support different design needs across the lean team, including projects outside the main scope

What they're looking for

  • 5+ years of experience in product design, UX/UI or digital design (agency or in-house), with at least 1 year in a senior or lead role
  • Deep, demonstrable expertise in design systems: built, scaled and governed a design system, not just consumed one
  • Strong command of component architecture, design tokens, theming/modes and documentation, with a systematic approach to naming and structure
  • Advanced Figma skills including variables, modes, component properties and auto-layout
  • Solid understanding of how design systems map to front-end code and comfort collaborating closely with engineers to keep design and code 1:1; curiosity about AI/agent-assisted design workflows is a strong plus
  • Proven ability to design end-to-end product experiences across web, mobile apps, internal tools and dashboards
  • Excellent craft in interaction and visual design
  • A proactive, highly organized way of working with autonomy alongside PMs and engineers
  • Strong communication skills for presenting work, explaining rationale and inviting feedback
  • Experience working in agile, fast-paced environments, iterating quickly based on feedback and data
  • Experience in fintech or B2B SaaS is nice-to-have
