Position: (Senior Technical Consulting – Specialist): Designer

Location: Mainz/Koblenz, Germany

Field: IT

Type: Full-time/Mostly remote

Project Overview

The project focuses on the technical development, maintenance, and optimization of central web platforms and collaboration systems within a public sector environment.

It includes migration to modern TYPO3 versions (12.4 LTS / 13.4 LTS), operation and enhancement of Nextcloud environments, and the implementation of accessible digital services in line with digital transformation objectives.

Services are primarily delivered remotely, with occasional on-site assignments as required.

In screen design, layouts are created that are primarily focused on presenting content on monitors and mobile devices. Screen design is purely graphical design, creating visually appealing layouts for screen surfaces. It may incorporate interface design principles but is not required to.

Screen designers create or follow design guidelines and adapt them to aesthetics, usability, and target audiences. They specialize in user guidance, navigation, and audience-specific design (e.g., usage context, age groups, accessibility needs such as visual impairments or illiteracy). They define or implement style guides, color schemes, and fonts, and adapt them to different cultural contexts (colors, text direction, text volume). Screen design results from the interaction of interface design, usability criteria, and technological constraints (e.g., implementation options such as mouse, touch, keyboard control).
