Celonis is hiringSenior Product Designer

The Team:

Celonis’ product design is part of the Product & Engineering team; We made it our mission to design and deliver consumer grade experiences and empower everybody in companies to make use of process mining and the Celonis Execution Management System. As designers and researchers we are working at the intersection of product design, business, and engineering to deliver usable and valuable solutions to our global customers. 

The Role: 

You will work in one of the core areas of our platform, which focuses on the development of innovative SaaS product features and functionalities to enable analysts to create complex business knowledge. Within this area, you will work closely with Leads, Product Managers, Designers and Engineers to ensure alignment and execution of a shared vision, while also helping the teams to understand the expressed and unexpressed needs of our customers. As a Senior Product Designer you will be a vital part of a diverse and interdisciplinary team, working together to ensure a holistic User Experience (UX) when it comes to intelligence and business knowledge creation across all areas of the platform. Focusing primarily on high-quality, hands-on design, you will also be a mentor for junior designers which will allow room for growth within this role.

The work you’ll do:

 
As a Senior Product Designer you are both a problem solver, supporting Product Managers in finding the right solutions to given problems, as well as a skilled and creative interaction designer who creates and translates concepts and product requirements into designs and prototypes - to align and hand over to engineering to bring to life. This requires a strong technical understanding as well as a deep understanding of consumer expectations, coupled with the skill to quickly deep dive into complex topics to craft concepts in a short amount of time.

Your primary focus will be to conceptualize and design interfaces that empower analysts to create complex database queries which represent fundamental business logic such as KPIs etc. Therefore it is necessary to not solely focus on isolated features but understand and formulate customer journeys to ensure that the product meets the needs of the user.

To be successful within this role you must be able to come up with concepts that break out of the norm whilst also being comfortable changing your approach depending on the concept stage, switching between “gravity off” & “gravity on” mode to come up with innovative solutions. This also requires continuous alignment with multiple teams and subject matter experts, creating handoffs in between different parts of the platform which enable analysts to harness the full capabilities of the platform, delivering the best possible user experience.
