Who You Are

You have 5+ years of professional experience in a UX/UI design role, ideally at an agency or in a fast-paced, client-focused environment, with a strong portfolio showcasing intuitive, visually compelling, and user-centered digital experiences.

You are proactive, highly organized, and capable of independently managing complex design assignments, balancing multiple priorities, and meeting deadlines.

You have strong communication and presentation skills, with the confidence to articulate design decisions and explain your creative rationale to internal stakeholders and clients.

You have a proficient level of English and Spanish, both written and spoken.

You are highly proficient in Figma, with extensive experience in wireframing, prototyping, high-fidelity UI design, and scalable design systems.

You have a strong understanding of UX/UI principles, information architecture, interaction design, and responsive design, paired with a keen eye for typography, layout, visual hierarchy, and detail.

You have a solid understanding of web development principles, including HTML5, CSS3, front-end capabilities and limitations, and web accessibility standards (WCAG AA).

You are a strategic and creative problem solver who can balance user needs, business objectives, and technical requirements to develop thoughtful design solutions.

You thrive in a collaborative environment, enjoy giving and receiving constructive feedback, and are comfortable guiding fellow designers while remaining adaptable to other creative disciplines, including graphic and editorial design.

Participate in and help guide internal design reviews and client presentations, communicating design concepts, rationale, and recommendations.

Guide fellow designers through specific projects or design challenges, providing constructive feedback and helping maintain high standards of design quality and consistency.
