Remote Part-Time UX/UI Designer for B2B Life Sciences

Life Science Connect; United States; Remote; USD 55,000 - 96,000; Part time

Job summary

Life Science Connect is hiring its first dedicated UX/UI designer. You'll partner with product, not only an executor of requirements: you'll help imagine and shape new experiences, products and interfaces for both our readers and our customers, then turn them into finished, buildable designs across web, email and SaaS.

You'll work day-to-day with our Senior Product Manager, Audience & Data, alongside engineering, editorial and commercial teams.

Qualifications

• 5–7 years of professional UX/UI design experience.
• Portfolio showing work in at least two of these areas: B2B SaaS or web application UX, content or media websites, and email or newsletter design.
• Strong Figma skills, including working inside another team's design system.
• Responsive design and clean developer handoff.
• Working knowledge of accessibility (WCAG 2.x AA).
• AI fluency: you already use AI tools in your design workflow and can show how.

Responsibilities

• Partner with product to brainstorm and shape new experiences, products and interfaces for readers (life science professionals) and customers (sponsors and clients).
• Turn PM requirements, briefs and rough prototypes into wireframes and high-fidelity Figma designs: desktop, tablet and mobile, with all states (empty, loading, error, logged-in vs anonymous).
• Present options and iterate with the PM, usually two or three review rounds per page type.
• Work within the existing design system (Figma plus our Storybook component library in Chromatic): reuse what's already built, and add new components back to the shared library.
• Spec designs for developers: layout, spacing, type, color tokens, interactions, responsive rules, content and data rules, accessibility (WCAG 2.2 AA) and analytics events.
• Answer developer questions and review built pages against the designs before release.
• Use AI tools to move faster, and help the team adopt them.
