Role
Who you are
- We’re looking for a UX/UI Designer (d/f/m) who thrives in a fast-moving environment with limited resources. You enjoy the challenge of turning constraints into creativity — finding elegant, pragmatic solutions that move us forward today while staying aligned with the long-term vision. You move quickly from concept to delivery and find energy in solving complex problems with wit, focus, and adaptability
- 4+ years in UX/UI design for web-based applications or platforms
- Strong background in working with cross-functional teams and managing stakeholders
- Proven ability to navigate non-linear progress: see the “100% experience” but deliver the essential 20% that brings the most value under constraints
- Experience in contributing to or owning design systems serving multiple user segments
- Portfolio that tells the story — from big ideas to lean first releases. Demonstrates 0→1 projects, smart trade-offs, and iterative improvements under limited resources. Shows clear thinking, prioritization, and the ability to bring clarity in complex, evolving contexts
- Experience in SaaS, medtech, or healthtech is a strong plus
- Proficiency in Figma and prototyping
- Experience in usability testing and user research
- Familiarity with front-end technologies (HTML, CSS, React) is a plus
- Excellent communication skills in German and English (B2 or equivalent)
What the job involves
- As a UX/UI Designer at Heartbeat, you’ll work across diverse sub-services, collaborating with engineers, product managers, Sales and Newbiz team, and customers. You will shape both the visual and functional aspects of our platform — transforming complex challenges into clear, effective solutions
- You will join a multidisciplinary team of engineers, data scientists, operations, and commercial experts, all dedicated to delivering solutions across multiple medical areas and use cases
- Research: Partner with product managers to research how users interact with Heartbeat’s system, uncover pain points, and validate insights through testing and interviews (German required). Collaborate with Sales and NewBiz team to analyze market trends, competitor offerings, and identify new business opportunities from the customer pool
- Turn user needs into features: Collaborate with cross-functional teams to translate research insights into functional product enhancements which simplify complex workflows and improve usability
- Act quickly, stay strategic: Be comfortable choosing minimal but viable solutions over perfect ones — you know which “good enough” truly moves the needle. You prioritize impact over perfection, understanding the ideal vision while delivering high-value, incremental improvements that solve the most pressing pain points first
- Design & QA testing: In our company, the product team is responsible for quality assurance. You will conduct design reviews and full-cycle functional testing in collaboration with product managers to ensure feature quality, usability consistency, and alignment with both user and business requirements
- Maintain and evolve Heartbeat’s design system: Ensure the design system remains scalable, consistent, and aligned with evolving product requirements
Our take
There is a great need for better data in quality assurance, measurement of treatment outcomes and medical research. Traditionally, healthcare systems have evaluated the quality of medical care based solely on whether errors were made, rather than whether the patient had a good outcome or actually benefitted from the treatment. This is what Heartbeat wants to change.
In a nutshell, their software integrates Patient Reported Outcomes (PROs) with clinical data already collected, combining the two to allow doctors to make more meaningful assessments of patient outcomes. In this way, Heartbeat is highly disruptive, refocusing healthcare towards patient outcomes and quality of life.
Heartbeat is already used by many European hospitals, including the Charité, Europe’s leading university hospital, as well as the Sana and Helios clinics, Germany’s largest private hospital chains. Following major funding across multiple rounds, Heartbeat is currently focusing on expanding its data analysis capabilities and expanding its partnerships.
