Job description
- Build Figma files to a professional standard: clear page structure, named layers, organized components, auto layout, variables, tokens, variants, and proper use of styles.
- Build and maintain component libraries and design systems that scale across multiple client brands.
- Apply visual design fundamentals (typography, hierarchy, color, composition, contrast) with intention and precision.
Prototype, present, and iterate
- Craft clickable Figma prototypes that communicate flow, interaction, and motion clearly to clients and developers.
- Define and document micro-interactions and motion behavior (hover states, transitions, scroll behaviors) so developers can implement without guesswork.
- Tell the story of your work through clear, confident design walkthroughs for internal teams and clients, explaining decisions and trade-offs.
- Give and solicit feedback in design reviews, raising the bar for the team's work and your own.
- Iterate quickly based on client feedback, user input, and validation, treating design as a loop rather than a final deliverable.
Design for accessibility and developer handoff
- Design to WCAG accessibility standards (color contrast, focus states, keyboard navigation, semantic structure) and apply inclusive design principles by default.
- Produce clean developer specs for spacing, typography, component states, breakpoint behavior, and asset exports.
- Partner with developers through implementation, reviewing builds and flagging anything that drifts from design intent.
Source and create visual assets
- Source and generate imagery using AI tools (Higgsfield, Nano Banana, or similar) when stock or client-supplied imagery is not available.
- Adapt your visual approach across multiple client brand systems with sensitivity and consistency.
Stay sharp
- Stay current on design trends, tools, and standards, especially in AI-assisted design and web craft.
- Bring new ideas, techniques, and references back to the team.
Requirements
Do you have experience in WCAG?, An exceptional portfolio of shipped websites and digital products that demonstrates strong UI craft, interaction design, design system thinking, and considered information architecture.
- 5-7 years of professional UI/UX design experience, ideally including some time in an agency or multi-client environment.
- Expert-level Figma proficiency: prototyping, auto layout, variables, tokens, variants, components, and design system maintenance.
- Strong visual design fundamentals: typography, hierarchy, color, composition, and contrast.
- Strong information architecture, user flow, and mobile-first responsive design skills.
- Demonstrated ability to design motion and micro-interactions, and communicate them clearly in prototypes or specs.
- Working knowledge of WCAG accessibility standards and inclusive design principles.
- Comfort working with ambiguity and turning broad briefs into strategic, considered design decisions.
- Proven developer handoff practices and effective collaboration with front-end developers.
- Proficiency in Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator.
- Comfort sourcing and generating imagery with AI tools.
- Self-directed and reliable in a fully remote environment.
Bonus Points
- Local to the Chicagoland area
- Experience designing for medical aesthetics, healthcare, wellness, or other regulated industries.
- Webflow experience or familiarity with low-code build environments.
- Light user research or usability testing experience.
- UX writing or content design experience.
- Comfort presenting work to non-design stakeholders, including clinical and executive audiences.
