With your strong background in UX/UI design, you have proven experience designing complex systems, flows, and interfaces for web and mobile platforms. You have a deep understanding of design systems, typography, color theory, and user-centered design principles.

You enjoy collaborating with others and bringing fresh ideas to the table. You’re familiar with industry tools such as Figma, Sketch, Adobe XD, or similar, and are always exploring the latest trends and technologies in design. You are comfortable working in an agile environment and have a keen ability to communicate design decisions effectively to non-designers.

As a designer, you’re always striving to improve your craft, welcoming feedback, and sharing your knowledge with your team. You thrive in a remote-first environment, with the ability to manage your time, communicate clearly, and collaborate effectively with a globally distributed team.

You’ll be collaborating closely with cross-functional teams including engineers, product managers, and marketing specialists to craft compelling, user-centric designs. This is an opportunity to have a direct impact on the success of our products, guiding their visual identity and design language as we continue to scale.

You’ll be responsible for everything from ideation to implementation, ensuring design integrity across all touchpoints. Your work will contribute to shaping our product’s overall strategy, user flow, and long-term vision. We’re looking for a designer who is both creative and analytical, someone who can make design decisions based on data, user feedback, and business goals.

Things You Might Do

In this role, you’ll likely take on a variety of exciting challenges. Here are some things you might do on a day-to-day basis:

  • Lead the design of new features and products from concept to execution.
  • Work alongside product managers and engineers to ensure that design decisions align with the product roadmap.
  • Collaborate with the marketing team to create cohesive branding and digital assets.
  • Conduct user research and usability testing to gather valuable feedback and refine designs.
  • Mentor junior designers and contribute to growing our design culture.
  • Stay on top of the latest design trends and continuously improve our design processes.

At our company, we’re all about growth, creativity, and making an impact. We’re looking for a designer who is eager to collaborate, ingithubte, and grow with our team!
