ABOUT BABBEL LABS

Babbel Labs is building the future of language learning. We are an AI-first, independent company within the Babbel group, based in Berlin. Our teams bring AI, research and product together to ship experiences that set a new standard for how people learn.

THE ROLE

We're a small, fast-moving team rethinking how people learn languages with AI. We're looking for an experienced product designer to take over hands-on design leadership: shaping the product's direction, running discovery, and getting work delivered.

This is a design leadership and mentoring role, not a people management role. You'll guide the craft and direction of the design team. Speed, precision and quality are how we work. You'll set the pace. You'll work AI-first, using various ways to test ideas quickly and turning the best ones into experiences that are ready to hand off.

HOW YOU'LL MAKE AN IMPACT

Lead design across discovery and delivery, owning key design decisions for AI-first language learning experiences.
Design AI-powered learning experiences. Shape how learners interact with AI, from conversation and voice to feedback that stays clear and trustworthy even when the AI gets things wrong.

Work as an AI builder. Use AI tools first to speed up research, exploring ideas, prototyping and delivery.

Prototype in code. Build prototypes in SwiftUI and HTML to test ideas and produce vision prototypes that are ready to hand off.

Design with Claude Code and Figma together. Figma is one tool among several here, not where every project starts.

Coach and mentor the small, experienced design team, who also work as AI builders, and help them share one set of AI-first design principles.

Work across disciplines with engineers, product managers, linguists and language learning specialists.

YOUR SKILLS AND QUALIFICATIONS

Proven design leadership. Solid experience leading product design, with a record of shipping work that users actually adopted.
Excellent UI craft and motion design. Learning happens moment by moment, so polished interfaces and purposeful motion are essential to a great learning experience.
Hands-on prototyping in code. You're comfortable in SwiftUI and HTML/CSS/JS and can build things people can use and test.
AI fluency. You use AI tools like Claude Code as a real part of how you design, not an add-on.
Design systems know-how. A working knowledge of design systems and how they make teams faster and more consistent.
A coaching mindset. Experience coaching designers and raising a team's standards through example, feedback and shared practices.
Clear communication. You work well with technical and non-technical partners, including specialists like linguists and learning designers.
Comfort with ambiguity. You thrive on fast iteration and figuring things out as you go.

Room to learn new tools as they arrive. Try them on real work as soon as they come out, and help decide what the team adopts.
A consumer product used around the world. Design for a live product that real learners use every day, globally.
A competitive salary.

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE

Delivery-ready prototypes. Prototypes that give engineering and stakeholders a clear vision to build from.
Faster, better design work. Quality and speed improve through AI tools and design systems.
An aligned design team. A team that is coached, confident and aligned on AI-first design principles.

This is a hands-on design leadership role on a small, experienced design team that works AI-first. AI tools are built into how the whole team works every day, from discovery to delivery. It is hybrid: a mix of time together in the office and working remotely.
