Your Profile

We are always on the hunt for talented designers of any proficiency: Working Students, Juniors and Seniors. Depending on your experience we surely have different benchmarks on your skills and overall profile. But independently from your experience we are looking for the same traits.

About us

We are a small team of ambitious digital creatives aiming to revolutionize the employee experience of our customers from all over Europe. Our products empower organisations to define well thought incentives structures and peer to peer recognition for their staff.

We are an organically growing team with only 15 people currently. We have a very flat hierarchy where everyone has a say independently from their role and experience. Our core values are transparency, teamwork, authenticity, refinement, openness, diversity and innovation. We are looking for long term relationships with our employees which means we want everyone to identify with our values.

Buben & Mädchen is our beloved partner with whom together we are crafting all our products. They are located in Mainz which is our second co-working space, besides Saarbrücken. Even tho we offer full remote positions we very much appreciate when everyone comes together for at least the team events we host regularly. These are events like "Learn & Lunch", Strategy Workshops and most importantly once a year a whole weekend in the blue all together.
