Founding Product Designer & Researcher - Stackgini GmbH

At Stackgini we are turning every business idea into technology impact with AI agents for every tech demand.

Across the world's largest companies, IT leaders, demand managers, architects, and IT compliance teams spend their days manually collecting demands, evaluating IT solutions, and governing a growing application portfolio with spreadsheets and disconnected tools. The result: bloated backlogs, redundant software, uncontrolled IT spend and an IT organization that is perpetually reactive instead of strategic.

Stackgini changes this fundamentally. Our system understands your enterprise application landscape bottom-up - from individual demands to full portfolio interdependencies - and can reason about them the way the best human experts do, but at machine scale. We're building toward a future where enterprise IT is self-governing and self-optimizing: no longer a bottleneck, but the engine of innovation.

We already work with leading organizations like Siemens Healthineers, REWE, Grünenthal and many more. We are a team of ~10, building what we believe will be the defining platform for a new era of Enterprise IT. We are growing fast, and the people joining now are the ones who set the standard - for the product, the culture, and the category itself. Stackgini will be the place where you will do the most meaningful work of your career.

Tasks

As we scale, we’re building a world‑class product guiding customers through the complex journey of enterprise IT and we are looking for a Founding Product Designer & Researcher to take the next level.

Design & Product

• Own the entire product design process - discovery, wireframes, prototypes, interaction design, final UI and EPIC definition for Engineering teams.
• Design AI-native interfaces: Guided workflows, generated content surfaces, AI output verification and structured data views that make complexity navigable. This is a core design challenge at Stackgini, not an afterthought.
• Work closely with Customers, Customer Success and Engineering.
• Take designs with engineers to spec, write EPICs, hand off, and do QA.
• Define and improve information architecture and navigation patterns as the product grows.
• Translate product strategy and roadmap priorities into design solutions, proactively proposing directions rather than waiting for specs.
• Build and maintain Stackgini's design system.

User Research

• Understand our user personas in and out and radically put yourself into the shoes of their day-to-day needs.
• Plan and run qualitative research: user interviews, contextual inquiry, and usability testing - with real users on a regular cadence.
• Think beyond what users say, synthesize findings into actionable insights and communicate them clearly to the team.
• Identify unmet needs and surface opportunities for new features or improvements.
