About us

We're Cortea, a Berlin-based startup transforming audits through AI technology.

The challenge: Manual audits of unstructured data and documents frustrate both auditors and regulated companies at huge cost, while demand for audits continues to skyrocket.

Our solution: AI-powered software and specialized AI-agents for auditors streamlining workflows and eliminating all repetitive tasks. Starting with IT audits for regulated companies.

With multi-million Euro funding from top-tier VCs, a working AI product, and paying customers, we're now expanding our product and scaling the team.

We value first-principles thinking, speed, trust, and the joy of tackling big challenges together!

Your Role

As our Founding Product (UI/UX) Designer, you’ll:

• Lead design from zero to one—from workflow mapping to pixel-perfect delivery
• Work directly with our founders, engineers, and customers to turn audit flows into intuitive, delightful interfaces
• Design and refine our component library, layout system, and visual identity
• Help shape the product vision, roadmap, and user experience standards
• Run usability tests, explore user feedback loops, and bring a systems mindset to design decisions

This isn’t a “take the ticket” kind of job. We want someone who asks why, pushes for better, and helps us build a product that feels like magic.

Qualifications

• Have experience designing complex SaaS products
• Love owning end-to-end product design—from research to systems to polish
• Think in flows, not just screens
• Are fluent in tools like Figma and know how to collaborate tightly with engineers
• Are hands-on: you proactively prototype, test, and iterate with real users and stakeholders
