As the leading platform for non-professional football in Europe, we bring professional experiences — from news and data to gamification — directly to a community of over 190 million footballers and fans.
We are Prematch, founded in 2021 in Cologne — a dynamic startup with a smart and ambitious team. Our marketing and business teams are based in Cologne, Berlin, and London, while our tech and product teams work remotely across Europe.
We’re backed by strong partners such as adidas, Krombacher, NIVEA MEN, and Techniker Krankenkasse — with a couple of exciting collaborations still in the pipeline. Successful investors like Ralf Reichert (CEO of ESL) and Verena Pausder are supporting us on our journey.

Full-time
Permanent employee
Hey, You! Nice to meet you!
Already a good match if you....
- Location: 100% remote: you’re excited to work either from one of our offices (London, Berlin or Cologne) or fully remote - whatever suits you best.

For this we need you
As our team grows, so does our need for senior design capacity – we're looking for someone to permanently strengthen our product team and scale with us long-term.
Your mission
- User Research: Plan and run user interviews, usability tests, and product discovery sessions to ground design decisions in real user behaviour
- User Flows: Define, analyse, and continuously improve core user flows (e.g. onboarding, key engagement loops)
- Collaboration: Work closely with the Product Manager and Engineering to translate product goals into well-reasoned, shippable design solutions
- Design System: Evolve the design system to ensure consistency and scalability across the entire product

What do you need
- Experience: 5+ years as a Product Designer, with a portfolio demonstrating strong UX thinking across mobile products (iOS/Android)
- User-Centred Design: Deep expertise in user-centred design – framing problems, structuring research, synthesising insights, and turning them into product decisions
- UX Process: Hands-on experience across the full UX process – from discovery and wireframing to usability testing and iterating on shipped features
- Interaction Design: Strong interaction design skills with a solid sense for how UI serves UX – aesthetically strong, but always in service of usability
- Tools & Ways of Working: Proficient in Figma (design, prototyping, design system management); comfortable working in fast-moving, cross-functional teams
Advantage but not a must
- Experience with quantitative UX methods (e.g. analytics-driven design decisions, A/B testing)
