Design Engineer
Confirmed on the employer's own hiring board on Sep 28, 2026. First seen by Alion on Sep 26, 2026.
We've built something people want.
ComplyDo is a YC-backed startup based in Berlin building the AI-native operating system for enterprise compliance.
We're working with leading enterprise customers, processing hundreds of regulations and standards, and growing fast. We’re looking for a design-minded engineer to help us make complex compliance workflows simple, intuitive, and enjoyable to use.
You’ll join a small team with a lot of ownership, work closely with the founders, ship quickly, and have a direct impact on the product.
The Role
You’ll turn product requirements and customer problems into clear user journeys, thoughtful interfaces, and polished production experiences.
This is primarily a UI/UX and frontend role, with enough full-stack experience to connect your work to APIs and backend workflows. You’ll help shape how features work and then build them. You should care deeply about both how a product works and how it feels.
What You Will Work On
User-facing UI/UX. Design and build interfaces that make complex compliance workflows feel simple and intuitive.
The design system. Build and evolve our design system, including reusable components, typography, layout, and interaction patterns.
Prototypes and production interfaces. Turn early ideas and requirements into user journeys, prototypes, and production features. Implement responsive and accessible interfaces with React, Next.js, TypeScript, and Tailwind CSS.
Product storytelling. Define the product’s visual language so others can apply it consistently in their work. You will help drive product design and visual quality across the team.
Tech Stack
Design: Figma
Frontend: TypeScript, Next.js, React, Tailwind CSS
Backend: Python, MongoDB, Neo4j
AI layer: LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.), LangChain, LangGraph, …
You don’t need to know everything. We care about your ability to learn quickly and finish work end to end.
How We Work
- Small, focused teams.
- Continuous deployment to production.
- Strong ownership from idea to production.
- We use AI tools heavily: Cursor, Claude, Codex, whatever makes you faster.
What We Are Looking For
Must have:
- Strong frontend skills and experience with React and TypeScript.
- Ability to build UI/UX that feels good, not just functional. You care about how things look and feel, not just whether they work.
- The ability to turn vague problems into clear user journeys and shipped features.
- Enough full-stack experience to connect frontend work to APIs and backend services.
- Experience with Figma or a similar design tool.
Good to have:
- Experience building design systems.
- Experience with complex workflows, dashboards, or enterprise software.
- Side projects, hackathon projects, or open-source contributions.
- Familiarity with compliance, legal tech, or regulated industries, but not required.
We are not looking for:
- Someone who needs years of experience to feel confident. We care about drive and curiosity not a CV.
- Someone who prefers to be handed a detailed spec and execute. We want people who help write the spec.
Working Here
We work in person in Berlin. We believe hard problems get solved faster at a whiteboard than in a Slack thread.
