The Challenge
You will join at a very interesting moment as we are in the process of completely rebuilding the look and feel of the Avira products on Windows. Instead of having many separate products installed, we will offer a well-integrated solution with a unique user experience.

The Team
The Windows Consumer Suites business unit is responsible for defining, architecting, developing and marketing Avira’s core offerings on the Windows platform. We are a cross functional team of 45 passionate and experienced colleagues.
Our unit consists of a team of Product Managers, Product Designers and User Experience Designers, responsible to define and market the product portfolio. Furthermore, our 6 development teams implement and maintain the product portfolio.
We apply state of the art methodology: We have an agile mindset and work in Scrum mode. We do user research and design sprints to approach new topics. Before implementing ,we do user testing. We strive to release new topics fast as MVPs to get early market feedback. We improve our existing implementations through experimentation (e.g. A/B testing). And we are data driven and take decisions based on statistical evidence.
