About the Position
We are looking for a talented UI/UX Designer to join our team. The ideal candidate will have a strong understanding of user experience principles and a passion for creating beautiful, intuitive products.
You will work closely with developers, project managers, and clients, to design user-centered interfaces and experiences. You will be responsible for creating wireframes, prototypes, and high-fidelity designs, ensuring that the user experience is seamless, accessible, and aligned with the project goals.
The ideal candidate will excel at building highly interactive web and mobile applications. We don’t typically build marketing sites (although we sometimes do). We need someone who is able to condense client ideas into simple to use applications.
This is a contract-role to start, 3 months at 20+ hours per week.

- Wireframing & Prototyping: Create low-fidelity wireframes and interactive prototypes to validate user flows and client desired functionality
- High-Fidelity Design: Develop visually appealing, responsive designs for web and mobile platforms that align with client expectations and development restraints.
- Collaboration: Work closely with developers to ensure design consistency and adherence to best practices. Provide assets and design specifications for implementation.
Qualifications
- 5+ years of professional experience in UI/UX/product/web design
- Strong portfolio of work demonstrating ability to design beautiful, highly interactive web/mobile apps
- Experience with user research, prototyping, wireframing, designing, and testing
- Excellent communication and collaboration skills
