Working Student / Intern Product Associate focused on UX/UI Design

Construction software looks like it was designed in 2000. Because most of it actually was.

We're building something different. AI-powered, yes. But also: Actually intuitive. Actually something a 55-year-old office project manager and a young Azubi want to use at the same time.

Construction deserves software that doesn't suck. You'll help build it.
