ppCelonis is the global leader in Process Intelligence and the pioneer of Process Mining technology. As one of the world’s fastest-growing enterprise SaaS companies, we are changemakers pushing the boundaries of what’s possible. We invest heavily in advanced AI capabilities—specifically our Process Intelligence Graph—to turn data insights into immediate business action. We believe there is a massive opportunity to unlock integral productivity and sustainability by placing intelligence at the core of every business process. Join our mission to make processes work for people, companies, and the planet. /p h3Why this role matters /h3 pAt Celonis, design has to scale across a complex, enterprise-grade process intelligence platform, and increasingly, it has to scale to machines as well as people. AI coding agents now generate a growing share of the UI our engineers ship, and our design system is the contract that keeps that output on-brand, accessible, and consistent. /p pThis role sits at the intersection of design, engineering, and product, with a strong emphasis on craft, usability, and scalability. You'll design and build the system itself, owning interaction decisions and front‑end architecture, and translating complex process data and AI-driven behaviors into intuitive, high-performance experiences. It's a senior role: you'll often operate with minimal design oversight, set standards, lead initiatives, and mentor others while staying deeply hands‑on in both design and code. /p h3About The Team /h3 pYou'll join the team that owns Celonis's design system and the operations behind how design gets done. We sit at the intersection of design and engineering, and we treat the system as a living product with real users, internal designers, product engineers, and the AI agents that now consume it. /p ul liDesign and build production components in Angular and TypeScript, our design system is built in Angular and we may adopt React over time, on a foundation of rock-solid HTML and CSS (semantic markup, ARIA, and modern CSS custom properties driving design tokens). /li liOwn interaction decisions, component design, and front‑end architecture end‑to‑end, independently translating ambiguous requirements into thoughtful, usable UX. /li liTranslate complex process‑intelligence data and AI‑driven behaviors into clear, intuitive, high‑performance operator experiences. /li liSet the technical and craft standard for front‑end quality, polish, motion and animation, performance, and accessibility, across the team. /li liDrive rapid prototyping to explore novel interaction concepts and turn ambitious design visions into distinctive, testable experiences. /li liCollaborate with designers, PMs, and engineers to derive and evolve the design system through a healthy contribution model. /li liMake the system agent‑ready:



maintain tokens‑as‑code in the W3C DTCG format (Style Dictionary or similar) and structure component metadata, docs, and APIs so AI coding agents can consume them as reliable context. /li liAuthor and maintain Figma Code Connect mappings so Figma components link cleanly to their coded counterparts for engineers and agents alike. /li liBuild evals as guardrails, visual‑regression, accessibility, and token‑compliance checks in CI, so generated and contributed UI meets the bar before it ships. /li liUse AI tooling daily (Figma Make, v0, Cursor, Claude Code, Copilot, or similar), applying senior design and engineering judgment to critique and correct the output. /li liLead system initiatives and mentor designers and engineers contributing to it. /li /ul h3What You'll Bring /h3 ul liAround 5–8 years across design engineering / UX engineering / front‑end, including significant hands‑on work building a design system or component library in a SaaS or B2B environment. /li liExcellent UX instincts with strong attention to interaction detail and usability, you can own design decisions independently, with minimal oversight. /li liStrong production front‑end skills in Angular and TypeScript with rock‑solid HTML and CSS fundamentals; experience with (or genuine openness to) React is a plus. /li liDeep understanding of design token architecture (primitive → semantic → component tiers) and modern token pipelines. /li liStrong Figma fluency and comfort moving fluidly between design and code. /li liDemonstrated accessibility expertise (WCAG 2.2) implemented in code. /li liHands‑on fluency with AI design and coding tools, and an opinionated, responsible point of view on using them. /li liA strong product mindset and bias toward ownership, plus the communication and leadership of a senior IC. /li /ul h3Bonus points /h3 ul liExperience with Figma Code Connect in production. /li liExperience building or integrating MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers e.g. the Figma Dev Mode MCP server or a custom design‑system MCP server. /li liExperience building evals for AI‑generated UI, or writing specs/prompts for AI generation. /li liBackground working on complex, data‑dense, or real‑time interfaces (a strong fit for our process‑intelligence product). /li liToken‑pipeline experience with Style Dictionary, Tokens Studio, or equivalent. /li /ul h3How We Work /h3 pThis is a senior role: you'll own major areas of the system with full autonomy, design and ship with a high bar for craft,



set the standards others build to, lead initiatives, and mentor. We pair design craft with engineering depth and high curiosity about AI, building a system that’s faster and safer for humans and agents alike. /p h3What Celonis Can Offer You /h3 ul liPioneer Innovation: Work with the global leader in Process Mining and the Process Intelligence Graph to shape the future of AI‑driven business operations. /li liOwnership from Day 1: Every full‑time "Celonaut" is an owner, receiving Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) and merit‑based refresh grants. /li liUnrivaled Family Support: Benefit from our inclusive parental leave policy—24 weeks of fully paid leave for primary carers and 12 weeks for supporting carers, available from your first day of employment. /li liWork‑Life Integration: Enjoy Unlimited PTO (in applicable regions) and generous PTO globally, as well as a flexible hybrid work model that balances remote focus with vibrant office collaboration. /li liContinuous Growth: Elevate your skills through our 70‑20‑10 learning framework, mentorship programs, and access to a dedicated learning platform. /li liHolistic Well‑being: Prioritize your health with subsidized Wellhub memberships, mental health counseling, and dedicated "Wellness Weeks" that prioritize work/life balance. /li liDrive Sustainability: Participate in annual Impact Days, where you receive paid time off to volunteer for community and environmental causes with your local office, or virtually. /li liGlobal Inclusion Belonging: Find community through our Inclusion Think Tank and participate in our annual Inclusion Days, ensuring every voice is heard and valued. /li liValue‑Driven Impact: Join a mission‑led organization where our core values—Live for Customer Value, The Best Team Wins, We Own It, and Earth Is Our Future—drive every decision. /li /ul h3About Us /h3 pCelonis makes processes work — for people, companies, and the planet. Powered by process mining and AI, the Celonis Process Intelligence Platform integrates process data and business context to create a living digital twin of business operations.
