Job description

Design user interfaces for mobile applications, responsive web applications, admin portals, dashboards, and internal systems.

Translate business and product requirements into clear user flows, wireframes, mockups, and interactive prototypes.

Review existing product flows and identify opportunities to improve usability, consistency, and overall user experience.

Work closely with Product Managers and Business Analysts to understand requirements and clarify user journeys before development begins.

Collaborate with frontend and mobile developers to ensure designs are technically feasible and implemented accurately.

Conduct design reviews during development and provide feedback on UI implementation.

Create and maintain reusable design systems, UI components, styles, patterns, and design guidelines.

Ensure consistency across different modules, platforms, screen sizes, and product releases.

Design clear experiences for important system states such as loading, empty states, error handling, validation, success/failure messages, permission handling, and confirmation flows.

Consider accessibility, readability, usability, responsive behaviour, and localisation when designing interfaces.

Support UX improvements using feedback from users, stakeholders, QA findings, production issues, and product analytics where available.

Prepare design specifications and assets required for development handoff.

Maintain proper Figma structure, naming conventions, components, variants, and design documentation.

Participate in requirement discussions, design reviews, sprint planning, and product improvement discussions.

Proactively identify UX gaps rather than only designing based on predefined requirements.

Good visual design fundamentals, including typography, spacing, hierarchy, colour, layout, and consistency.

Able to convert complex workflows into simple and understandable user experiences.

Able to explain and justify design decisions based on usability and product requirements rather than visual preference alone.

Good communication skills and ability to work with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

Detail‑oriented and able to identify inconsistencies between design and actual implementation.

Able to manage multiple features or projects within delivery timelines.

Preferred Qualifications

Experience in any of the following would be an advantage:

User flows and UX problem-solving

Wireframes to final UI progression

Interactive prototypes

Design systems or reusable components

Examples explaining the candidate's individual contribution to the project

We are particularly interested in understanding how you think and solve product problems, not only the visual of the final screens.
