Job description

Samyang America is launching a strategic digital transformation initiative to build a Business Partners Portal that will serve as a centralized platform for distributors and internal business functions across North America, Canada, and LATAM.

Today, distributor order management and communication processes are largely handled through emails, spreadsheets, attachments, and manual follow-ups. As the business continues to grow, this creates operational inefficiencies, communication delays, duplicate work, limited visibility, and increased risk of human error.

The Business Partners Portal will provide distributors with a single platform to submit purchase orders, monitor order status, upload supporting documents, receive notifications, and interact with standardized business workflows. Internally, the system will support Sales, SCM, TQR, SS&OP, Finance, and LATAM COE teams by improving visibility, workflow automation, and operational efficiency.

The UI/UX Designer will play a critical role in designing an intuitive, scalable, and user-friendly experience for both external distributors and internal business users. This individual will be responsible for creating the overall user experience strategy, interface design, user journeys, design standards, and supporting documentation for the project., * Partner closely with the Full-Stack Developer and the QA & Technical Documentation Analyst throughout the project lifecycle on a daily basis to ensure alignment between user experience design, technical feasibility, implementation, testing, and final delivery.

  • Participate in UAT sessions and incorporate stakeholder feedback
  • Collaborate closely with developers, IT, Sales, SCM, TQR, SS&OP, and LATAM COE teams, * All work performed throughout the project must be fully documented and maintained from project initiation through final delivery
  • User manuals, design standards, workflow diagrams, and support documentation are required deliverables
  • Participation in operational handoff and knowledge transfer activities is required

  • User manuals and training materials are delivered
  • UAT feedback is addressed and approved
