What are the responsibilities and job description for the Senior Product Designer position at Pandektes?
Do you spend as much time in Claude Code as in Figma?
At Pandektes, we're building the largest AI-powered legal database that 350 legal teams across Europe rely on every day - and we're looking for a Senior Product Designer who's as excited about that mission as we are. AI isn't just what we build. It's how we build. We'd love to find someone who works the same way.
About the role
Legal research hasn’t changed much in decades. Lawyers still spend countless hours navigating fragmented sources, outdated systems, and complex databases just to find the information they need.
At Pandektes, we’re changing that.
Our ambition is to build the leading global platform for legal research and the largest AI-powered legal database. By combining artificial intelligence, intelligent search, and continuously updated legal sources, we’re redefining how legal knowledge is accessed, understood, analyzed, and applied.
Pandektes has raised more than €4 million and most recently closed a €2.9 million seed round (Feb 2025) led by People Ventures, Interface Capital, and leading angels. Pandektes already serves more than 350 customers across Denmark, Germany and Switzerland.
We’re still early in the journey, and joining our team now means you’ll have big impact on shaping how we scale.
What you'll do
Design product end-to-end, from feature concept to the last micro-interaction - like rendering 60-page judgments so a lawyer can scan, cite, and trust them in 90 seconds
Prototype with AI tools: Claude Code, v0, Cursor, whatever moves you forward fastest - instead of static mockups
Optimally implement your own designs in code, including production-ready React components, when the work calls for it
Own and evolve a design system that holds up across deep-information UIs, AI flows, and editorial-style content
Shape AI search and chat that surfaces the right precedent and makes lawyers trust it
Talk to lawyers regularly, watch how they actually work, and read product data to spot what users aren't telling you
Decide what not to build - and defend that call.
What you bring
A portfolio of shipped product work, including AI products. You've designed for LLM-driven flows and know where the patterns are still being invented
Comfort writing production-quality frontend code. You don't need to be the strongest engineer in the room, but you ship
A systems-first mindset. You design the system, then apply it; not the other way around.
AI deeply embedded in your workflow. Claude Code is a daily tool, not a curiosity
Curiosity about users. You'd rather talk to five lawyers than guess at what they need, and you can read product data and feedback to find what nobody's told you yet
Ruthless prioritization. You know "everything is important" means nothing is
A point of view. You can defend your work and update it when the pushback is right.
Nice to have
Experience designing for legal, compliance, or other dense professional domains
Hands-on experience working alongside ML/data teams
Open-source work or side projects that show how you think.
