Job description

Partner with Aquent to join a leading organization at the forefront of innovation within the enterprise software space. This client is dedicated to developing cutting-edge, internal applications that empower operational efficiency and drive strategic initiatives. As a key contributor, you will be instrumental in shaping the user experience for their critical platforms, directly impacting how teams work and contributing to significant operational success.

About The Organization

Our client is a forward-thinking organization leveraging technology to optimize internal operations and enhance productivity. They are committed to building robust, user-centric enterprise solutions that make a tangible difference in how their teams work. Join a dynamic environment where your design expertise will directly contribute to impactful, high-visibility projects that drive operational success.

Shape the Future of Enterprise UI

Are you a highly skilled UI Experience Designer ready to make a significant impact on a high-visibility, AI-powered enterprise web application? This is an incredible opportunity to join a rapidly growing team, where your expertise will directly shape the user experience for complex internal workflows. You’ll be instrumental in translating intricate business logic into intuitive, data-dense interfaces, directly contributing to the operational success of a forward-thinking organization. If you thrive on hands‑on execution, solving complex problems, and delivering exceptional UI in a fast-paced environment, this role is for you!

What You’ll Do

• Produce high-fidelity UI designs and maintain design systems and components in Figma for a complex, desktop-focused web platform.
• Quickly grasp intricate, non-design business logic and translate technical workflows into intuitive, user-friendly interface designs.
• Collaborate closely with the Lead Designer to scale design production, execute interface updates, and ensure design consistency across expanding features.
• Build functional prototypes to effectively communicate interactive concepts, user flows, and complex data interactions.
• Partner with product and engineering teams to ensure visual hierarchy, technical feasibility, and seamless implementation via Figma Dev Mode.
• Incorporate feedback efficiently from stakeholders and user testing while adapting to evolving project priorities.

What You’ll Bring (Must-Have Qualifications)

• Exceptional proficiency in Figma, including auto-layout, component libraries, design systems, and developer handoff.
• A strong portfolio demonstrating experience designing complex, data-heavy desktop applications, B2B platforms, or internal enterprise tools (rather than marketing websites or brand campaigns).
• Proven ability to absorb non-technical or business-heavy concepts and translate them into clear, visual solutions.
• Experience with standard prototyping workflows (e.g., Figma, Adobe XD, or similar).
• Demonstrated ability to work autonomously, execute UI work rapidly under tight deadlines, and maintain strict attention to detail.

Preferred Skills & Characteristics (Nice-to-Have)

• Direct experience or interest in AI-assisted prototyping tools (e.g., Claude).
• Background in healthcare, financial services, or other highly regulated enterprise environments.
• A hands‑on execution mindset, thriving in a role focused heavily on UI execution, component creation, and visual production.
• A pragmatic problem-solver, comfortable with ambiguity and able to decipher complex operational workflows without needing hyper-detailed visual specs upstream.
• Adaptable and speed-oriented, able to “put on headphones and bang out UI” with high accuracy in a fast-moving, agile product team.

General Requirements

• Be authorized to work in the United States.
• Not require sponsorship of any kind for the duration of the assignment.
• Be able to work on a W-2 basis. C2C or 1099 is not permitted for this position.

Client Description

• Makes it their mission to guide people toward better health
• Is considered by Fast Company to be amongst the most innovative companies
• Is listed by Forbes as one of the world’s most admired companies
• This includes altering the products they offer at retail to more health-conscious offerings!

Our client has recently made a move toward a major merger, which means this is a great time to get involved! Two big industry brands coming together.

Working here gets you into a fast-paced environment, with tons of cross-functional working relationships. You’d have exposure to a number of teams related to any project you’re working on, and we sometimes see freelancers convert to permanent employees on teams they’ve had the opportunity to interact with. This is definitely a standout opportunity!
