THE TEAM YOU'LL JOIN - DESIGNING THE INTERFACE BETWEEN HUMANS AND AI AGENTS IN PROCUREMENT Tacto builds AI-powered software for strategic procurement teams in manufacturing. Our customers manage millions in spend, negotiate with hundreds of suppliers, and make decisions that directly affect their company's bottom line. We're entering a phase where the product fundamentally changes shape. Instead of dashboards users click through, we're building agentic capabilities that take larger units of work off our users' shoulders - monitoring markets, preparing negotiations, flagging risks, executing workflows end-to-end. The agent handles the work. Humans make the decisions and review the results. How that actually shows up in the app - especially for non-technical procurement professionals who are the majority of our users - is one of the hardest design challenges we face. That's where you come in. You'll join a small design team and you'll work alongside product managers, engineers, and domain experts who understand procurement deeply. Your job is to make AI capabilities feel natural, trustworthy, and genuinely useful to people who've never thought of themselves as "tech users." WHY THIS ROLE MATTERS The shift from "tools you operate" to "agents that work for you" is happening across the industry - but most teams are still figuring out what that means in practice. For our customers, the stakes are high: a misunderstood recommendation or a confusing workflow doesn't just frustrate users, it costs real money. If we get this right, procurement teams will trust Tacto to handle the heavy lifting while they focus on the decisions that matter. If we get it wrong, the most powerful AI capabilities in the world won't get adopted. Design is the difference. YOUR IMPACT In this role, you will: * Shape how agentic capabilities surface in the product - from "the agent is working on this" to "here's what it found, here's what you should decide." * Design flows where AI and human judgment work together, not in parallel. Think less "copilot sidebar" and more "the product just handles it and comes back when it needs you." * Create short-horizon vision work (3-6 months out) that points the team in a direction - not as polished decks, but as prototypes and tangible artifacts the team can react to and build toward. * Raise the bar for craft and coherence across the product, especially as engineering velocity increases 10x and more features ship faster. * Work directly in code for last-mile polish - checking out PRs, tweaking interactions, making things feel right before they ship. WHO YOU ARE We're looking for a block-shaped designer. Not a T-shape with one deep skill and broad awareness, but someone who is genuinely strong - 80th percentile good - across multiple disciplines: visual design, interaction design, product thinking, and prototyping in code. This matters because the role stretches. You'll think like a PM when shaping what to build. You'll think like an engineer when prototyping and polishing in code. And you'll think like a designer when making it all feel coherent, clear, and worth trusting. You'll be a great fit if you: * Are a senior designer with a strong portfolio of shipped product work - ideally in B2B SaaS, complex workflows, or data-heavy products. * Have real opinions about how AI should show up in products - not just "add a chat interface," but genuinely thoughtful about trust, transparency, and when AI should get out of the way. * Prototype in code as part of your regular workflow. Figma is still valuable, but you move past it when a real prototype communicates the idea better. * Think in systems, not just screens. You care about how 20 features feel together, not just how one flow looks in isolation. * Can operate with ambiguity. The problems we're solving don't have established patterns yet - you'll have to invent some of them. * Organize your day using AI tools. You use Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, or similar as core leverage in your work - for research, ideation, prototyping, creating developer handover artifacts, and more. Bonus points if you: * Have designed for non-technical users in complex B2B domains, * Have experience with agentic or autonomous AI features (not just chat), * Have strong opinions about what makes AI output trustworthy and actionable. OUR BACKGROUND Tacto is building the intelligence layer that connects AI to the physical world of manufacturing, starting with procurement. AI is transforming every industry, but it stops at the factory gate. The knowledge that holds manufacturing together - part costs, suppliers, materials - is scattered across systems and people. Over 50% of a product's cost originates from suppliers, making procurement the single largest cost lever in manufacturing and the missing connection between the digital and the physical world. Yet it still runs on Excel and legacy systems. We're changing that with our Procurement Intelligence Platform, trusted by hundreds of companies running billions of Euros of material. Based in Munich, we are 100+ passionate builders who are in-office, with high expectations, fast growth, and a lot of fun. We are supported by >€50m from Sequoia, Index, and Europe's leading tech entrepreneurs and industry veterans. WHY IT MATTERS Manufacturing forms Europe's economic backbone, driving a fourth of Europe's GDP and providing over 30% of jobs. These hidden champions and global market leaders manufacture the physical world around us, from the machines that build our cities to the medical devices that save lives. But the world is changing. The US dominates the digital world of bits. China is scaling the world of atoms, manufacturing at unprecedented speed and scale. Geopolitics are more uncertain than ever. Europe's strength lies in its deep industrial knowledge through generations of engineering. Manufacturing worldwide runs on European machines and software. But that heritage is only an advantage if we leverage it in the age of AI. Tacto builds the AI that connects Atoms and Bits, empowering our Industrial Base to Stay Stronger and building a lighthouse for European tech. WHAT WE OFFER The people at Tacto are passionate about building the organization, growing themselves, and our product while having fun and being real. We have high expectations, great talent density, and a culture where your ambition, performance, and agency are what count - not where you come from or how big your ego is. You'll grow at the forefront of AI, have real ownership and impact, and be surrounded by the best people in their field who challenge you and make you better every day. That is demanding and rewarding, but that's where we thrive. Besides that you have: * Money: Competitive salary & equity in the company with real upside, so you are invested in our success * Workplace: A vibrant in-office culture (> 4 days/week) in a beautiful office in central Munich * Development: A development budget and regular exposure to exceptional people, e.g., Lunch & Learns, peer mentoring, external speakers * Time off: 26 + 4 vacation days per year (4 fixed “company rest days”) as well as regular off-sites and team events * Health: Wellpass membership, of course, a fruit basket (!), and access to Jobrad, for your health * Family & Social Security: Voluntary pension contribution, voluntary KITA subsidy for your children Tacto is an equal opportunity employer. We are committed to equal employment opportunity regardless of race, religion, sexual orientation, age, marital status, disability, or gender identity. Please do not submit personal data revealing racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, trade union membership, data concerning your health, or data concerning your sexual orientation.
