Do you have an eye for aesthetics, combine creativity with technical understanding, and take real ownership in the design process? Would you like your designs to have a direct impact on product quality, innovation, and the growth of one of Europe's most exciting D2C footwear brands?

Our footwear brand Pammys has grown to over 1 million customers in its first four years and has been named the fastest-growing e-commerce brand in Europe by the Financial Times.

With a team of over 150 people at our locations in Kiel, Hamburg, and our own 22.000 m² logistics center in Lensahn, we are building a global footwear brand that redefines style, comfort, and modern aesthetics.

We are currently facing our next major growth phase—with the clear goal of further expanding our market position this year through internationalization and a significant expansion of our product portfolio.

To achieve this, we are looking for a Footwear Developer (m/f/d) who will accompany the entire design process of our shoes – from the initial idea to concept development and final implementation. You will create sketches, 3D models, and prototypes, work closely with development, marketing, and production, and ensure that aesthetics, functionality, and user-friendliness blend perfectly.

Important: We are an office‑first company. You will work daily in one of our offices in Hamburg or Kiel and be close to the team, the processes, and the brand.

• Co‑design and implementation of designs as part of the significant expansion of our product range this year
• Working closely with development, marketing, and production teams to optimize products
• Researching current design trends and market requirements for continuous improvement
• Creating technical drawings and presentations
• Support in optimizing existing products in terms of design and user‑friendliness
• Integration of sustainable materials and new design ideas based on trend and market analyses
• Coordination and communication with suppliers and production partners to ensure quality and feasibility

Your profile

• Good written and spoken German and English skills
• Completed degree or training in product design, industrial design, fashion design, or similar
• Creativity and flair for design, shapes, colors, and materials (previous experience an advantage)
• Ability to work in a team and strong communication skills to collaborate closely with development, production, and marketing
• Structured and independent way of working

Why us?

• Real career growth opportunities—grow with us into the role that best fits your strengths and ambitions

• A culture where your ideas matter and appreciation is part of everyday work
• Fast decision‑making with minimal bureaucracy and no endless meetings
• Modern, centrally located offices in Hamburg and Kiel
• Choose the setup that works best for you—a Windows laptop or MacBook, plus an iPhone
• A Wellpass membership to support your health and well‑being
• Free drinks, employee discounts, and access to Corporate Benefits
• Regular team events—because celebrating success is better together
• Plenty of room for your own ideas, ownership, and the opportunity to make a real impact
