Our Mission

Join us in reshaping global trade in a fast-growing startup!
We are traide AI – a VC-backed, B2B deep tech startup based in Berlin, using AI to solve one of the most overlooked yet critical challenges in international trade: compliance. Our software automates product classification, reduces regulatory errors, and helps customers save up to 83% of their time on a process that is critical to get right.
Trusted by leading brands like BMW, RIMOWA, OBI, Edeka, we've achieved 3x growth over the past 12 months – and we're just getting started.

Your tasks

Own the full loop. Take a user problem from rough idea to shipped interface: partner or write the brief, design the flow, prototype it, partner with engineering, ship it with as few handoffs as possible.
Use AI as a force multiplier. Explore and prototype with AI tools, Figma, or code, whatever gets there fastest. Your taste is the editorial layer: you know when AI-generated UI is wrong even when it looks right, and you fix it.
Solve from first principles. Reason about the right interaction for the user problem instead of reaching for a component library.
Sweat the final 10%. Craft the details others miss, the ones that make a compliance product feel trustworthy.
Work in small, focused pods. No layers, no waiting. You'll work closely with two or three others who share the same model.
Be accountable to outcomes. Know the metric your team is moving. Measure your week by what changed for users, not by screens delivered.
Stretch beyond design. Read the API spec, engage users directly, build in code when it's faster than Figma.

Who we’re looking for

Craft is the baseline here, not a nice-to-have. What sets you apart is range and judgment: you know what good looks like, you know when something looks right but feels wrong, and you can get a team there with you.

Fluency in English (C1+) is required. German (C1) is a plus, but not a must-have.
Genuine design craft with a track record: you've shipped interfaces real users navigated without explanation, and you can point to the metric that moved.
Strong visual sensibility, high standards, and an eye for detail.
Range across Design, Product, and Engineering: you've gone from user problem to testable prototype without waiting for a brief, and used AI coding tools to build something real. You're not dependent on an engineer to realize your vision.
You've built personal AI workflows that make you meaningfully faster, and you know when to trust, edit, or reject AI output.
Comfortable in ambiguity: you ship, collect signal, and iterate rather than waiting for full clarity.
You are excited to show your work (portfolio or examples).
Ideally you've worked on products where getting it wrong has real consequences (fintech, healthtech, logistics, compliance), but that's not a must-have.
Berlin-based or willing to relocate.

This role is not for you if…

You want a PM to define the problem and an engineer to implement the solution.
You resist working in code or with AI.
You hand off polished Figma files and believe your job is done.
You judge yourself on taste alone, not outcomes.
