THE ROLE AND THE TEAM

Content Solutions is a growing product and tech team and are building a platform dedicated to creating fashion content. Currently, our products support the production of media and enrichment of 1000s products a day, enable the creation and localisation of 100s of campaigns a month, and build tools that support operations in the Lounge and Fashion Store studios in Berlin and studio partners across Europe.
 

In 2025, we are expanding our teams to leverage AI for content creation and building teams dedicated to implementing AI at scale to create both product and editorial imagery. And, looking to the future, we are discovering the commercial opportunities this might unlock.

We are looking for an innovative and self-motivated Senior Product Designer to join the Content Tooling design team. This role will be joining two other designers and a Head of Design on the team. This role will be critical to advancing the ways in which creative content is being produced in Zalando and ultimately impacting how it gets shown to our customers.

As a Senior Product Designer, you will drive and contribute to strategic projects that shape how we might better serve our 48+ million customers in the future. 

• You will get the chance to work closely with content production teams, product designers, product managers, and engineers to help shape and help bring to life remarkable (internal & external) customer and partner journeys.

• The ideal candidate is an experienced, self-led UI/ UX design profile that works fluently across various tools and systems and has strong prototyping and visual design skills alongside advanced UI / UX skills. Ideally, you have worked with and actively contributed to design systems in the past.

• Interest and experience in new technologies (AI) is considered a strong plus.

• You possess strong collaboration and communication skills. 

• As a thought leader and role model, you will contribute to the Zalando Product Design community and the larger European design industry by sharing best practices, mentoring and teaching colleagues, crafting best-in-class solutions, bar-raising in design reviews, and sparking inspiring conversations.
