Job Description - UX/UI Designer
We need a designer who thinks in systems, obsesses over how people actually use things, and can move fluidly between enterprise complexity and consumer simplicity. You'll own end-to-end experience design across our products - from the first wireframe sketch to the pixel-perfect handoff.
What you'll actually do
You'll design user experiences across web and mobile for both our enterprise tools and B2C marketplace. That means you're comfortable navigating a dense workflow one week and optimizing a conversion funnel the next. Specifically:
- Own the full design arc - research > UX flows > wireframes > high-fidelity UI - in Figma
- Partner daily with Product, and Engineering to shape what gets built and why
- Run and synthesize user research and usability testing (not just request it - actually do it)
- Build and evolve a component library and design system that scales without getting brittle
- Make hard tradeoffs between user needs, business goals, and technical reality - and articulate why
What we're looking for
- 2 to 6 years designing digital products, with real depth in UX fundamentals - information architecture, interaction design, usability principles.
- Figma is your primary tool and you're fast and in-depth in it.
- You've shipped enterprise products with real workflow complexity (not just dashboards).
- You've designed for B2C marketplace dynamics - search, discovery, conversion, trust signals.
- You think in systems: reusable components, consistent patterns, responsive behavior.
- You communicate design decisions clearly to people who aren't designers.
- A portfolio that shows your process, not just your pixels.
Bonus points
- You've worked in an agile product team where design runs ahead of engineering, not behind it.
- You can read (or write) HTML/CSS/React well enough to speak engineering's language.
- You have a point of view on - not just compliance, but inclusive design & accessibility as a practice.
- You've used analytics and A/B testing to validate design decisions with data, not just instinct.
- You’ve built or worked on a design system and built UIs with those components.
