Job description

We are a small, fast-moving product team building web-based B2B SaaS applications. We are hiring a senior UX designer on a freelance / part-time basis to design and maintain the UX across our products. You will own end-to-end product design (flows, wireframes, high-fidelity screens, and a reusable design system) for data-dense interfaces. Scope of Work Refine and evolve the product UX: audit the interface, iterate on usability, and raise the bar on visual polish. Design end-to-end product flows for data-dense screens: dashboards, tables, multi-step workflows, search, and settings. Produce wireframes, interactive prototypes, and high-fidelity screens in Figma. Build and maintain a reusable design system aligned to shadcn/ui and Tailwind (tokens, components, states, responsive behaviour) so designs translate cleanly into code. Support the design-to-code handoff with annotated specs and clear component structure, working closely with the build side. Apply the same design system and UX standards to additional products and internal tools as they come online. Keep the work accessible (WCAG AA) and visually consistent across products.

Skills & Experience Required 5+ years of product / UX design for B2B SaaS, with a portfolio of shipped work. Strong experience designing complex, data-dense interfaces (dashboards, tables, multi-step workflows), not primarily marketing pages or consumer mobile apps. Expert in Figma: auto-layout, variables and tokens, components, and prototyping. Proven design-system experience, building and maintaining component libraries. Familiarity with modern component-driven front-ends (React / Next.js) and design-to-code workflows; comfortable designing to a Tailwind / shadcn-style system. Solid information architecture, interaction design, and ownership of flows end to end. Self-directed and reliable in an async, remote, part-time engagement.

Portfolio & Proof Of Work (required) A live portfolio link. Applications without one are considered incomplete. 2 to 3 case studies covering B2B SaaS or data-dense product work, showing problem, process, and outcome, not only the final screens. At least one example of a design system or component library you built or maintained. A Figma file (view access or a representative sample) so we can see structure, auto-layout hygiene, and component thinking. Strong to have: work on complex, multi-feature products, and evidence of collaborating directly with developers on handoff.
