  • Mentor and guide cross-functional teams, advocating for design best practices and user-centric thinking across the company.
  • Conduct user research and usability testing to inform data-driven design decisions. This includes engaging directly with customers to learn about customer problems, understand how they currently perform work, and present design ideas and prototypes.
  • Create interactive prototypes, wireframes, and high-fidelity mockups to communicate design intent.
  • Ensure responsive, accessible, and scalable design across multiple devices and form factors.
  • Contribute to front-end implementation (HTML, CSS, JavaScript/Bootstrap) to bridge design and development.
  • Support executives and marketing teams with design input for sales presentations, collateral, and events. 

Required Skills: 

  • 10+ years of hands-on experience in UI/UX or Product Design, ideally in SaaS or B2B enterprise software.

  • A strong portfolio demonstrating elegant, intuitive design solutions and clear reasoning behind them.
  • Deep experience with Figma, Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator), and modern design tools.

  • Familiarity with Agile development environments and iterative product delivery.
  • Exceptional communication skills — able to clearly articulate design decisions to technical and non-technical audiences.
  • A self-starter mindset with strong attention to detail and the ability to balance multiple projects in a fast-paced environment.
  • Must be a U.S. Citizen, able to pass a background check, and subject to random workplace drug testing.
