• Design and prototype learning experiences that help users practice effectively, reinforce knowledge, and prepare confidently for professional exams.

• Use qualitative and quantitative insights to inform your design decisions, working with our in-house User Research and Data teams to understand user behavior, validate solutions, and iterate on your designs.

• Work closely with engineers throughout the design and implementation process to ensure that shipped experiences reflect the design intent while taking technical opportunities and constraints into account.

• Collaborate with other product teams to help create a cohesive and personalized user experience across relevant parts of AMBOSS, such as sign-up, dashboard, shop, and user profile.

• Apply and advocate for strong design principles, usability, and accessibility, contributing to high-quality and consistent experiences across AMBOSS.

• Contribute to the wider AMBOSS Design community through design critiques, knowledge sharing, and contributions to our design system, interaction patterns, and other shared design topics.

• A collaborative and iterative approach to design, with openness to feedback and working closely with others.

• A growth mindset and interest in developing a deep understanding of educational UX for a product designed for medical experts rather than a general audience.

• Experience using research insights and data to inform design decisions and participating in user research studies.

• Experience working effectively in cross-functional teams, including product, design, engineering, and research, and collaborating with a range of stakeholders.

You enjoy:

• Digging into complex UX problems and experimenting to find simple, effective solutions for users.
