• Run user research, interviews, and usability tests to uncover high-impact improvements.
• Create user flows, wireframes, prototypes, and high-fidelity designs that are polished and refined.
• Own and evolve our cross-platform design system.

Brand & Visual Design

• Ensure the Peaks visual identity is consistently and beautifully applied across digital product and marketing.
• Strengthen, refine, and guard the Peaks brand across teams.
• Shape the visual evolution of Peaks and help define what “Peaks” looks and feels like in 2026 and beyond.

Cross-functional Collaboration

• Advocate for design thinking and customer-centricity across the organisation.
• Work closely with Marketing to align brand storytelling with product experience.
• Support campaigns with brand-aligned UI, visual assets, and creative direction when needed.

What You Bring

• 7+ years of UX/UI design experience, ideally in mobile consumer products.
• A strong portfolio showcasing intuitive flows, polished interfaces, and high-quality visual design.
• Comfortable bridging product, brand, and marketing, and confident in both worlds.
• Experience in designing for iOS and Android.
• Expert proficiency in Figma (components, systems, prototyping).
• Experience with motion design (Lottie, After Effects, Jitter, or similar).
• Strong understanding of how design translates into code, or eagerness to grow this skill.
• A sharp eye for detail, strong visual judgment, and high-quality standards.
• Excellent communication skills with the ability to guide stakeholders through design decisions.
