About Yepoda

At Yepoda, Korean effectiveness meets sustainable solutions: our mindfully produced skincare products are made with love in Korea. Our mission is to bring the best beauty innovations from Korea straight to Europe – without compromising our values, quality, and sustainability. All our products are vegan, cruelty-free, and crafted from the best natural and active ingredients. Our aim is to make the K-Beauty routine easy, effective, and enjoyable.

Founded in 2020, Yepoda is based in the heart of Berlin and is powered by over 90 brilliant individuals from around the globe who are actively writing our story.

We’re looking for a hands-on Senior Print & Packaging Designer (m/f/d) to lead and elevate Yepoda’s physical brand expressions – from product packaging to printed brand materials like in-parcel inserts, brochures, flyers, and seasonal gift sets. This role is all about storytelling through touch – making our packaging not only look beautiful but feel premium, intentional, and emotionally resonant.

Your Tasks

• Lead the creative direction for all printed and packaging-related brand touchpoints: primary and secondary product packaging, in-parcel materials, brochures, leaflets, gifting, limited editions, and special collaborations

• Develop original concepts for product launches and brand campaigns – from moodboard to final print-ready files

• Own the full packaging design process, including dielines, prototyping, and liaising with external suppliers to ensure excellent production quality

• Collaborate with product development and sourcing teams to bring feasible and functional packaging ideas to life without compromising aesthetics

• Elevate Yepoda’s packaging experience to be both sensorial and sustainable – exploring new materials, finishes, and innovations in print

• Maintain and evolve our print and packaging visual language, ensuring cohesion with brand guidelines across all physical assets

• Mentor junior designers, freelancers, and external studios – upholding Yepoda’s creative and production standards

• Stay on top of global trends and industry innovations in beauty packaging, editorial print, and tactile brand storytelling

Your Profile

• 7+ years of experience in art direction with a strong focus on packaging and print design – ideally in beauty, wellness, or lifestyle

• Experience working in-house or closely with brand teams, preferably on physical consumer products

• Strong portfolio showcasing packaging and print work that combines premium feel, clever concepts, and brand storytelling

• Deep knowledge of layout, typography, colour, materials, and finishing techniques

• Strong production expertise, confident working with dielines, printers, and packaging suppliers

• Skilled in Adobe Creative Suite (especially Illustrator and InDesign); familiarity with 3D rendering or prototyping tools is a plus

• Solid understanding of brand-building and how design supports both commercial and emotional goals

• Detail-oriented, hands-on, and comfortable managing multiple fast-moving projects

• Passionate about mentoring and collaborating to bring creative ideas to life

• Fluent in English; additional languages (German, French, Korean, Spanish, Italian) are a plus

What We Offer

• Dynamic Environment: The opportunity to work in a start-up environment surrounded by a passionate and dedicated team

• Accelerate Your Career: Take on responsibility from day 1, with room for professional growth and advancement as the company continues to expand

• Inspiring Workspace: Located in the heart of Berlin's Prenzlauer Berg, a dog-friendly office, with free drinks and snacks

• Hybrid Working: We understand that sometimes you get more stuff done from home and need a change of scenery

• We Value Diversity: We seek to build an inclusive workplace that welcomes people from all different backgrounds. A welcoming, international, dedicated team with flat hierarchies and trust by default

• Employee Discounts: You’ll get to enjoy the Yepoda products at a discount and share it with friends and family to keep your glow going!
