UX/UI Designer

We are hiring a UX/UI Designer who can plug into live build teams and move quickly. This position will take rough requirements and turn them into a clean, buildable interface within a short timeline. There will rarely be a perfect brief and a long runway. This role sits right next to engineers, owns the UX/UI surface end to end, and raises the bar on how our work looks and feels.

The engagement will begin as a flexible structure and can grow into something bigger as the work grows and we find fit. If this sounds good to you, we would love for you to apply.

What You’ll Do

• Design and ship the UI/UX for AI products we build with clients, from core app flows to brand-new features
• Work shoulder to shoulder with engineers in fast build cycles, turning rough requirements into usable product quickly
• Own the full surface: information architecture, interaction design, and high-fidelity UI in Figma
• Design for AI-native experiences, reading and review views, agent interactions, chat versus structured surfaces, and the states that come with probabilistic output
• Jump across multiple product builds at once and keep quality high without slowing the team down
• Translate messy stakeholder input into clear, shippable design, and know when to push back on scope
• Establish lightweight design patterns and a reusable system so we stop redrawing the same things across projects
• Own end-to-end user flows and information architecture for complex, data-dense products
• Decide what to surface and what to hold back, apply progressive disclosure so users aren’t buried under information-heavy AI output, Design user-centered enterprise application experiences through wireframes, mockups, prototypes, journey maps, user research, and usability testing. Collaborate with product, engineering, business, and mission stakeholders to translate requirements into accessible interfaces. Maintain design systems, style guides, component libraries, and documentation; support accurate implementation and participate in Agile ceremonies. Use feedback and usage data to iteratively improve usability while ensuring WCAG and Section 508 compliance. Top Skills: Adobe XdFigmaSection 508SketchWcag IRIX Solutions
