Job summary

Asepha in Manhattan, NY is seeking a UX Engineer to own end-to-end design for AI-powered workflows, from research and journey mapping through wireframes, prototypes, and high-fidelity specs handed off to engineering.

You will design intuitive interfaces for AI-enabled processes, conduct user research with pharmacists, clinicians and operations staff, and build a design system that scales across user personas while partnering closely with engineering, product, and pharmacy teams.

Qualifications

• 4+ years of product/UX design experience, with a portfolio demonstrating shipped AI-powered products.
• Deep experience designing for AI platforms: you understand how to communicate model confidence, handle errors gracefully, and keep humans appropriately in control.
• Experience working directly with engineers and shipping designs into production.

Responsibilities

• Own end-to-end design from initial research and journey mapping through wireframes, prototypes, and high-fidelity specs handed off to engineering.
• Design intuitive interfaces for AI-native workflows including agentic task flows, human-in-the-loop escalations, and real-time updates that make complex automation feel simple and trustworthy.
• Conduct user research with pharmacists, clinicians, and operations staff; synthesize findings into design decisions.
• Build and maintain a design system that keeps the product consistent as it scales across multiple user personas and workflow types.
• Partner closely with engineering, product, and our pharmacy team to turn ambiguous clinical problems into clear, shippable experiences.
• Support sales and customer success with demo environments, pitch materials, and lightweight UI improvements that reflect our product vision.

Job description

UX Engineer

Manhattan, NY

Engineering

Hybrid

Full-time

Asepha builds advanced AI tools that re‑imagine how medications are prescribed, verified, and supported across the pharmacy ecosystem. Backed by $4M in funding and trusted by multiple Fortune 50 healthcare organizations, we’re scaling rapidly and looking for a UX Designer who has shaped the experience of AI-powered products. Your work will have a direct impact on how clinicians, pharmacists, and patients interact with our platform.

Join our mission:

We’re building a world where medication delays are impossible. From the moment a prescription is written, the path to therapy start is clear, fast, and predictable. Asepha is the context graph for the therapy-start journey, connecting the fragmented steps that slow down medication access: intake, coordination, utilization management, and clinical services.

Role and Responsibilities:

• Own end-to-end design from initial research and journey mapping through wireframes, prototypes, and high-fidelity specs handed off to engineering.
• Design intuitive interfaces for AI-native workflows including agentic task flows, human-in-the-loop escalations, and real-time updates that make complex automation feel simple and trustworthy.
• Conduct user research with pharmacists, clinicians, and operations staff; synthesize findings into design decisions.
• Build and maintain a design system that keeps the product consistent as it scales across multiple user personas and workflow types.
• Partner closely with engineering, product, and our pharmacy team to turn ambiguous clinical problems into clear, shippable experiences.
• Support sales and customer success with demo environments, pitch materials, and lightweight UI improvements that reflect our product vision.

Qualifications:

• 4+ years of product/UX design experience, with a portfolio demonstrating shipped AI-powered products.
• Deep experience designing for AI platforms: you understand how to communicate model confidence, handle errors gracefully, and keep humans appropriately in control.
• Experience working directly with engineers and shipping designs into production.

Nice-to-haves:

• Experience in healthcare, pharma, or regulated industries.
• Familiarity with LLM output interfaces, chat UX, or structured data visualizations.
• Front‑end development experience appreciated.
• Based in Toronto Canada or Manhattan US preferred but open to remote for the right candidate.

Perks:

• Competitive compensation package, including $120-170k annual salary + stock options
• Full medical, dental, vision, and extended health benefits
• Unlimited days off to maintain a healthy work-life balance + 2 weeks of company‑wide office closure during the holidays
• 2 annual off‑site trips with the team
• Complimentary breakfast and lunch provided daily in the office. Dinner also provided if staying past 7pm.

Note: Only candidates selected for an interview will be contacted.
