UX Designer

Evlo AI; Austin (TX); On-site; USD 100,000 - 150,000; Full time

Job summary

Evlo AI in Austin seeks a product designer to translate complex problems into intuitive software interfaces. You will own design from initial sketches to shipped pixels for dashboards, onboarding flows, and multi-step workflows, collaborating closely with PMs, engineers, and researchers.

You will plan and run usability tests, build interactive prototypes in Figma (and ProtoPie/Framer when needed), and contribute to a growing design system.

Qualifications

• Shipping software at scale with a strong portfolio.
• Experience planning and running usability tests independently.
• Strong interaction design fundamentals across breakpoints.

Responsibilities

• Own end-to-end design for core product surfaces from problem framing to high-fidelity UI.
• Conduct usability testing and translate findings into design recommendations.
• Build interactive prototypes to validate concepts before engineering.
• Contribute to and evolve the design system with engineers.
• Partner with researchers on discovery work to ground roadmap decisions.
• Define and track success metrics and iterate based on feedback.
• Present design rationale to leadership with supporting data.

Job description

About The Role

The role sits at the center of product development, translating ambiguous business problems into interfaces that millions of users interact with every day. This is a hands-on design position focused on complex product surfaces - dashboards, onboarding flows, and multi-step workflows - not marketing sites or static mockups.

The designer will work directly with product managers, engineers, and researchers in a tightly integrated product trio model, owning design quality from first sketch through shipped pixel. The impact is measurable: reduced task completion times, higher activation, and fewer support tickets.

Key Responsibilities

• Own end-to-end design for core product areas - from problem framing and user flows through high-fidelity UI, prototyping, and engineering handoff in Figma
• Conduct regular usability testing sessions (5-8 participants per round), synthesize findings, and translate insights into prioritized design recommendations
• Build and maintain interactive prototypes in Figma (and tools like ProtoPie or Framer when fidelity demands it) to validate concepts before engineering investment
• Contribute to and evolve the design system - components, patterns, and documentation - working closely with frontend engineers on implementation quality
• Partner with UX researchers on discovery work: diary studies, contextual inquiries, and survey design to ground roadmap decisions in user evidence
• Define and track success metrics for design work (task completion, time-on-task, error rates) and iterate based on quantitative and qualitative feedback
• Present design rationale to leadership and cross-functional stakeholders, defending decisions with research data and usability evidence

What We Are Looking For

• 3-6 years of product design experience shipping software used at scale, with a portfolio demonstrating complex interaction problems - not just visual polish
• Deep proficiency in Figma, including auto-layout, variables, and component architecture for design systems
• Hands-on experience planning and running usability tests, including writing discussion guides, moderating sessions, and synthesizing findings independently
• Strong interaction design fundamentals: information architecture, navigation models, form design, and responsive layout across breakpoints
• Comfort working in an agile environment - participating in sprint planning, writing specs, and doing weekly QA with engineers on shipped work
• Bachelor's degree in HCI, Design, Psychology, or equivalent practical experience; formal research training is a plus but not required
• Bonus: Experience with data-heavy interfaces (analytics tools, admin consoles, B2B workflows), familiarity with SQL or product analytics tools (Amplitude, Mixpanel), or motion design skills
