Our mission is to ensure that they are reliable, accessible, and efficient.

Join Charlie Tango, a specialised unit within KMD
Charlie Tango is a multidisciplinary consultancy within KMD, bringing together around 40 specialists across design, strategy, technology, AI and innovation.

Together, we combine Charlie Tango’s hands-on approach to design and innovation with KMD’s deep domain knowledge and experience developing critical digital solutions that help shape the future of society.

AI is transforming how we explore ideas, create experiences and build digital products. At the same time, growing complexity demands stronger design systems, smarter processes and a more systematic approach to design.

We are looking for a Senior Product Designer who is excited by both. Someone with excellent visual and UI design skills, a strong understanding of UX, and a genuine passion for design craft, combined with a deep interest in the systems, processes and practices that enable great design at scale.

You will join our Product Design team, part of Charlie Tango’s Experience Design department of approximately 15 designers, spanning UX, Service Design, UI, Motion Design and Branding. Your primary focus will be on UI, interaction design and design systems, working closely with our Service & UX Design team, frontend developers and product owners.

As a Senior Product Designer, you will take a leading role in shaping digital products, experiences and the practices behind them.

You will take ownership of the design process, working from user needs and business challenges through concepts, interactions and high-quality visual execution. You are a hands-on designer who can navigate complex challenges, facilitate collaboration and advise clients on how to improve their design practices.

With a particular focus on Process Design, Design Systems, DesignOps and Accessibility, you will help organisations develop and implement better ways of working, while remaining closely involved in the design work itself.

• Creating digital products and interfaces. Develop high-quality visual and interaction design,
  from concepts and prototypes to detailed UI and production-ready designs.
• Designing processes and ways of working. Map workflows, identify challenges and develop
  practical processes that improve collaboration, decision-making and delivery.
• Building and evolving Design Systems. Develop components, design standards and governance models, and help organisations implement and adopt them.
• Advancing DesignOps and Accessibility. Help clients establish effective design practices,
  accessibility standards and processes that support consistent, inclusive digital experiences.
• Facilitating and advising. Lead workshops, collaborate with stakeholders and translate complex needs into clear design directions and practical solutions.
• Exploring AI in design. Use AI-assisted tools and automation in your own work, experiment with new workflows and help clients identify opportunities to improve their design processes.
• Developing our design practice. Share knowledge, challenge existing methods and contribute to the development of our Experience Design team.

We imagine you have 5+ years of relevant experience, ideally from a consultancy, agency or
complex product organisation. You are first and foremost a skilled visual and digital product designer,
with a portfolio that demonstrates strong UI craft, attention to detail and experience creating digital
products and working with large-scale design systems.

In detail:

• Excellent visual and UI design skills, including typography, colour, layout, interaction patterns, prototyping and detailed interface design.
• A strong understanding of UX, user behaviour and the principles of human-centred design.
• A systematic and analytical mindset, with a genuine interest in Process Design, workflows and improving how teams work.
• Practical experience with Design Systems and DesignOps, including components, governance, implementation and cross-functional collaboration.
• Deep accessibility expertise, including WCAG and the ability to independently advise on inclusive design and its implementation.
• Strong facilitation and consultancy skills, with the confidence to work directly with clients and
  multidisciplinary teams.
• Advanced Figma skills, and an active interest in AI-assisted design workflows and emerging
  technologies.
• Excellent communication skills in Danish and English, both written and spoken.

At Charlie Tango, you become part of a close-knit specialist environment with the reach and
opportunities of a major technology organisation as part of KMD.

You will work on meaningful digital challenges across public and private sectors, including solutions that
support essential functions in Danish society. You will collaborate with experienced designers, advisors
and engineers in an environment that values craft, curiosity, precision and new ideas.

You will also join at a time when AI and emerging technologies are changing both what we design and
how we design it, creating opportunities to explore new approaches and influence the future of our
practice.

We offer a high degree of professional autonomy, varied challenges and opportunities for professional
development and knowledge sharing.

You will be employed by KMD in a full-time position, based at Charlie Tango's office in Østerbro,
Copenhagen, with a competitive salary package, pension and employee benefits in accordance with
KMD's employment terms. You will report to the Head of Design.

We would love to see how you think, how you work, what you have created and how you envision an
AI-driven future.

If you have any questions, you are welcome to contact Manager, Head of Design, Frederik Aagaard at [email protected] or
+45 51 22 99 02.

We review applications on an ongoing basis, so send us your CV (or LinkedIn profile) and a link to your portfolio, ideally including examples of digital product design as well as work involving Design Systems, Process Design, DesignOps or Accessibility.

Applications are handled through KMD's recruitment process. We welcome qualified candidates from
different backgrounds and experiences.

Come help us design digital experiences that matter, and shape how we design them.
