koppla is building the next-gen collaborative scheduling platform for construction, helping project managers keep projects on time by identifying delays and disruptions before they impact timelines. 

We are looking for a Visual Designer to become the guardian of koppla's brand - owning and evolving our visual presence across every single marketing touchpoint, from trade fair booths to website landing pages to LinkedIn posts. You'll step into an established brand with a solid design system, and make a real impact as a core in-house team member in a fast-moving B2B SaaS startup that's transforming one of the world's largest industries.

We want someone who genuinely cares about koppla's brand - who takes pride in nurturing and evolving it over time, and who brings the seniority and confidence to help shape how we show up to the world.

Compensation: €65-80k gross annual salary for 100% FTE + 15-25% of your base salary in equity on top
Location: Berlin, hybrid with 2+ office days/week

Activities

You'll own everything visual on the marketing and brand side - print, digital, video, events, web. The scope is broad by design, and we need someone who thrives across the full range and knows how to navigate it.

• Presentations & one-pagers: Design compelling sales decks, one-pagers, and custom info materials from scratch - you own quality end-to-end, not just template maintenance
• Website: Build new landing pages and optimize existing ones in Framer; collaborate closely with the team on structure, content, and SEO
• Trade fair & event design: Develop booth concepts (or brief external suppliers), create print-ready files, and manage full stakeholder communication - including project coordination for larger events
• Print production: Design and adapt print materials from scratch (brochures, business cards, merch, banners, etc.) and prepare production-ready files
• Brand ownership & collaboration: Work closely with product designers, provide clear brand feedback, and actively contribute when deliverables don't meet CD standards
• Brand development: Beyond maintaining the existing brand, you'll have the opportunity to continuously evolve it together with the team - bringing fresh thinking while staying true to what makes koppla, koppla
• Social media (LinkedIn): Create on-brand post visuals based on provided copy; own design quality across all LinkedIn content
• Photography & video: Edit video content (intros, outros, subtitles), accompany shoots, capture footage on construction sites when needed - and be comfortable picking up a camera yourself
• Special & ad-hoc projects: Jump into spontaneous creative tasks (team photo shoots, event branding, site banners) - you're comfortable with "just make it happen" moments

Requirements

You're a mid-level to early senior, insanely versatile visual designer who combines strong craft with a pragmatic, hands-on attitude. You cover the full spectrum - print, digital stills, motion, video, photography, presentations - and you're comfortable being the one person who owns it all. Most importantly, you have a strong brand sensibility and the confidence to speak up for it.

In practice, this means you'll work closely with colleagues who don't have a design background, and you'll need to advocate clearly and constructively for what's right for the brand - even when it means saying no or proposing a better direction. You're not just executing briefs; you're shaping how koppla looks and feels to the world.

You are likely a great fit if:

• ​You have multiple years of experience as a Visual or Graphic Designer, ideally in a B2B SaaS or agency context
• You bring genuine seniority - you can work autonomously, set your own quality bar, and confidently push back on off-brand requests
• You are proficient in Figma and have hands-on experience with Framer (or are eager to learn it quickly) and are a pro in Adobe Creative Suite
• You're comfortable across the full creative spectrum: pixel-perfect digital assets, print-ready production files, motion graphics, video editing, and photography
• You have strong instincts for brand consistency and take personal ownership of how the brand shows up - in every format, every channel
• You can work independently and reliably, managing your own time across multiple concurrent projects without losing quality
• You have experience with LinkedIn content design and understand what performs on the platform
• Experience with SEO-informed design decisions or web content is a bonus
• You communicate clearly in German (C1) and/or English and enjoy working closely with a small, cross-functional team
• Beyond the role-specific requirements, you also see your own values reflected in our culture playbook.

Team

What we offer

• A company of co-owners through tax-optimized equity grants.
• A culture with a focus on transparency, respect, ownership, collaboration and the well-being of each team member on this exciting journey.
• An environment that values hard-work while still allowing work-life/family integration through 28 days PTO, flexible working hours, workation and a hybrid setup.
• Dog-friendly office in Berlin with free lunch, besides beverages and snacks as well as a home office budget at start.
• And more: Annual personal training budget of 1,500€, Company supported pension Scheme (”BAV”, 30% contribution), Urban Sports Club Membership, Home Office budget and more.

Application Process

• Initial Interview (with People & Culture - basic culture fit, expectations, general screening)
• Case Study / Take-Home Task & Technical Interview (with the Hiring Manager)
• Founder Interview (meet the founders - mindset, strategy, culture fit)
• Reference Call (we’d like to speak with one of your line managers; we’ll ask you for their contact details)
