In this role, you’ll blend technical design expertise with customer-centric consulting to create beautifully branded, accessible, and intuitive internal communication experiences using the Staffbase platform.

You’ll be a trusted partner to new and existing customers—guiding them through design workshops, UI/UX best practices, and front-end implementation ideas to ensure their comms channels are both visually engaging and aligned to their brand goals. From concept to delivery, your work will sit at the intersection of strategy, creativity, and product enablement.

• Partner cross-functionally with Customer Success, Sales, and Implementation to ensure a seamless onboarding experience
• Contribute to internal process improvements and advocate for the customer’s voice in product conversations
• Maintain deep knowledge of Staffbase platform capabilities and how they map to design use cases

What you need to be successful

• 5+ years in visual design, consulting, front-end development, or a hybrid of those roles
• A strategic mindset and strong customer orientation—you can go deep with design teams or simplify concepts for business users
• A portfolio or track record of start-to-finish design implementations with measurable impact
• Strong experience with tools like Figma, Sketch, Adobe XD, and front-end frameworks like Tailwind CSS
• Working knowledge of HTML/CSS/JS and an appreciation for performance, accessibility, and usability
• Experience guiding enterprise clients through the creative process and implementation lifecycle
• A passion for translating communication goals into beautiful, functional, and brand-aligned user experiences
