About the Role
We’re looking for a Senior UX Designer to take ownership of end-to-end design across our mobile and web applications. You’ll be joining early in our product journey, helping to define not only our AI-powered user experiences but also our design culture and systems. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a startup environment, enjoys shaping process as much as crafting elegant, human-centered experiences, and can balance both execution and mentorship responsibilities.
What You’ll Do
- Independently lead end-to-end design projects from concept through execution.
- Collaborate with PMs and engineers to translate product requirements into user flows, wireframes, prototypes, and high-fidelity designs that are ready for development.
- Deliver both flow-level interactions and pixel-perfect UI polish with equal attention to detail.
- Design visualizations that are understandable and usable by diverse user groups, including those with accessibility needs
- Rapidly prototype and test ideas to inform product direction and decisions.
- Partner with research and product teams to validate solutions through usability testing and iteration; use metrics and feedback to continuously refine and improve designs for clarity, efficiency, and engagement
- Own and evolve our design system and visualization standards, ensuring consistency, scalability, and accessibility across applications, dashboards, and reports.
- Build frameworks and guidelines for data-heavy applications to support rapid growth and consistency
- Mentor, support, and empower junior design team members by fostering their growth in craft, confidence, and creative autonomy, while recognizing and valuing their unique contributions
- Contribute to shaping the design function within the company as one of its early design leaders.
What We’re Looking For
- Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience in a Design field (e.g., interaction, graphic, visual communications, product, industrial, etc), Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), a related field, or relevant practical experience.
- 7+ years of design experience for mobile and web applications, with demonstrated high user interaction and adoption.
- Ability to translate complex problems and flows into intuitive, purposeful designs that help users achieve their goals.
- Equal strength in designing for user flow and human interaction as well as delivering visual polish.
- Understanding that the way an app makes you feel is equally important as what the app does.
- Experience defining and expanding design systems, components, and patterns.
- Expertise in Figma and well-versed in compatible plugins to support asset interoperability, accessibility, and design throughput.
- Comfortable working in close collaboration with product managers, engineers, and customer advisories.
- Strong communication and storytelling skills when advocating for design concepts and decisions.
- Curious and adaptable, with a low-ego, team-oriented and customer-focused approach.
- Innate growth mindset that can thrive in a startup environment with evolving processes.
- A passion for mentoring, fostering an inclusive design culture across the organization, and bringing seasoned design expertise to customer engagements.
Nice to Have
- Experience with motion design and microinteractions.
- Experience with accessibility-first design.
- Familiarity with designing for AI-driven or agentic experiences.
- Experience with both consumer-facing and enterprise/workplace products.
Why Join Us?
- Early opportunity to shape the design function and influence product direction.
- Direct impact in a fast-moving environment where you’re able to reimagine stale workflows and your work quickly reaches users.
- Chance to work on a product that blends consumer-grade delight with enterprise impact.
