• Lead end-to-end UX design for client applications and products, from discovery and research through wireframes, prototypes, and final handoff to development
• Use AI-powered design tools (Figma AI features, Google Stitch, Claude, and others) to rapidly generate wireframes, UI mockups, and interactive prototypes
• Conduct and synthesize user research using AI-assisted methods—analyzing interview transcripts, survey data, and behavioral analytics with intelligent tools to surface insights faster

Required Qualifications

• 3–7+ years of professional UX/UI design experience, with a strong portfolio demonstrating user-centered design across web and mobile applications
• Proven, hands‑on experience using AI tools in the design process—not just awareness, but active daily use of generative AI for prototyping, content generation, research analysis, or design iteration
• Expert‑level proficiency in Figma, including familiarity with AI‑powered plugins and features
• Strong foundation in design thinking, product thinking, and human‑centered design methodologies
• Experience working in a consultancy, agency, or multi‑client environment where you’ve adapted design approaches to different industries and user bases
• Ability to conduct and synthesize qualitative and quantitative user research into actionable design decisions
• Excellent communication and presentation skills—comfortable leading client‑facing design reviews and workshops
• A growth mindset and genuine enthusiasm for experimenting with new AI tools and workflows

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with Google Stitch, Claude, FigmaMake, ChatGPT, Midjourney, or similar generative AI platforms in a design or product context
• Background in service design, information architecture, or UX strategy
• Familiarity with front‑end development concepts (HTML, CSS, React) to facilitate seamless designer‑developer collaboration
• Experience with design tokens, accessibility standards (WCAG), and responsive design best practices
• Knowledge of prompt engineering techniques for extracting high‑quality design outputs from AI tools
• Prior work designing AI‑powered products or interfaces that incorporate machine learning features

We encourage experimentation if a new AI tool can make our design process better, we want you to find it, test it, and share it with the team.

What We Offer

• Competitive salary and benefits package
• Remote‑first culture with flexible working hours
• Access to cutting‑edge AI tools and technologies—we invest in the best tools so you can do your best work
• Diverse, challenging client projects across multiple industries
