Working Student – UX & Product Design (w/m/d)
SpotmyEnergyYour Mission
We’re SpotmyEnergy – an energy tech startup based in Cologne and Berlin, helping solar installers sell more and make energy flexible.
Our tools turn installers into providers of complete smart energy solutions — combining their hardware with our software and energy products (metering, tariffs, and home energy management). We’re growing fast and backed by leading investors such as Picus Capital and Norrsken VC (€10M seed).
It’s a hands-on, end-to-end design role where your work will go live fast and make a visible impact.
Your Key Responsibilities
Design end-to-end UX flows for new partner-facing features — from concept to pixel-perfect UI.
Shape our B2B platform to empower solar installers and improve their daily workflows.
Turn real user problems into intuitive, elegant experiences, collaborating closely with Product, Design, and Tech.
Work directly with developers — your designs won’t sit in Figma; they’ll ship.
Your first month at SpotmyEnergy:
Week 1: Explore our product and user journeys.
Week 2: Take on your first feature — own UX & UI from idea to prototype.
Week 3: Test and iterate based on feedback from the team and real users.
Week 4: Finalize and hand over your design to frontend.
Your Profile
A strong design sense — you’ve built something you’re genuinely proud of.
You move fast from problem → concept → design.
Independent, proactive, and detail-oriented, with high standards for quality.
Ideally, you’ve gained experience in a high-growth startup or fast-paced environment.
Bonus: Experience in frontend implementation (React, Next.js, etc.).
Based in Berlin, currently enrolled in a degree in Product Design, HCI, Computer Science, or a related field.
Our Offer
In-person collaboration: Work directly with Product and Design — fast feedback, no silos.
High impact: Join a small, high-context team where your work shapes what thousands of users see and use.
Growth & learning: Get hands-on experience in UX, Product, and Energy Tech — and grow with us.
Purpose with ambition: We’re building products that make the energy transition smarter and more accessible.
