- Balance quick UX/UI fixes on the live product with structured design initiatives and contributions to the design system.
- Own projects end-to-end from research and exploration through implementation and iteration.
Requirements
Must-haves
- 2–4 years of product design experience with a portfolio showing end-to-end process (research → wireframes → shipped outcomes).
- Strong proficiency in Figma (Design, FigJam, Figma Make) for wireframing, prototyping, and UI design.
- Solid UX fundamentals: information architecture, interaction design, usability heuristics, and user flows.
- Experience designing B2B SaaS or data-dense products (cybersecurity, compliance, multi-tenancy preferred).
- Hands-on experience designing UX for AI agentic workflows and using AI tools (e.g., Claude, Figma Make) as part of the design process.
- Experience contributing to and designing within a design system.
- Proven ability to move from ambiguous problems to working prototypes and to partner with engineering/product to ship features.
- Strong communication skills and ability to defend design decisions.
Nice-to-haves
- Experience conducting or synthesizing user research and usability testing.
- Familiarity with Adobe Creative Suite.
- Motion design or micro-interaction experience.
- Familiarity with accessibility standards (WCAG) or designing for regulated, compliance-heavy industries.
