• Lead the full product lifecycle from discovery and conception through to implementation and live release, working with clients and an interdisciplinary team.
• Plan and facilitate discovery workshops independently, and translate findings into clear requirements and product decisions.
• Develop target-group-specific solutions using wireframes, and validate them through user interviews and usability tests.
• Write epics and user stories, define testable acceptance criteria, prioritise backlogs, estimate effort with the development team, conduct acceptance reviews and accompany implementation.
• Coordinate the design and software architecture in alignment with clients and other stakeholders.
• Plan timelines and budgets together with project management, and coordinate team effort accordingly.
• Plan and oversee go-lives and take responsibility for store releases.
• Document feature scope in line with regulatory requirements under ISO 13485 / IEC 62304.
• Contribute beyond individual projects by developing methods, processes and internal product management practices, applying AI tools where relevant, and sharing knowledge across the team.
• What they are looking for

• Experience working in regulated environments such as digital health applications or medical devices (ISO 13485 / IEC 62304).
• Strong knowledge of UX-adjacent methods including design thinking, user interviews and discovery formats.
• Structured problem analysis with the ability to derive clear requirements and develop sound concepts.
• Good technical understanding, and ideally experience integrating AI technologies into products.
• Strong communication skills, with the ability to represent decisions, guide stakeholders and bring together different perspectives.
• Awareness of commercial considerations alongside technical ones, including project controlling in collaboration with project managers.
• Fluent German and English (negotiation level in both).
