Senior UX Designer

Your creative field

We are looking for a Senior UX Designer (all genders) to join us full-time and on a permanent basis as soon as possible. We live a remote-first culture, but you are free to choose whether you want to work hybrid or fully on-site, depending on your proximity to one of our locations. At Contabo, we are shaping the future of cloud hosting – and for that, we need you.

As a Senior UX Designer, you will take responsibility for ensuring that our products and platforms not only work – but truly excite. You translate complex technical requirements into intuitive, clear, and aesthetically pleasing user experiences and journeys that developers, businesses, and end users around the world can understand and love.

In your role, you analyze user needs, apply research methods such as interviews, usability testing, and data-driven analysis, and develop well-founded concepts based on your findings. You create user journeys, wireframes, mockups, and interactive prototypes, test hypotheses, and accompany the concepts through to final implementation. In doing so, you work closely with product management, development, marketing, and other stakeholders – always with the goal of measurably improving the user experience and laying the foundation for our continued growth.

In the long term, you will shape the design culture at Contabo: you will establish design guidelines, introduce design systems, and ensure that UX becomes an integral part of all processes. This way, you ensure that we are not only leaders in cloud technology – but also in user experience.
