Contribute to and maintain a scalable design system
Conduct and synthesize user research and usability testing to inform design decisions
Collaborate with engineers to ensure pixel‑perfect, accessible implementation

Present design decisions and rationale to cross‑functional stakeholders
Champion user‑centered design practices across the organization
Required Qualifications

5–8 years of UI/UX design experience in a product environment
Strong portfolio demonstrating end‑to‑end design work across web and/or mobile products
Proficiency with modern design tools such as Figma, including components, auto layout, and design tokens
Experience with a modern tech stack environment — comfortable working alongside VueJS or similar front‑end frameworks
Experience with front‑end technologies (HTML, CSS, VueJS) to facilitate smoother developer handoff
Hands‑on experience with Jira for task and workflow management
Solid working knowledge of Agile/Kanban methodologies
Strong communication and storytelling skills — you can clearly articulate design decisions to both technical and non‑technical audiences
Preferred Qualifications

Experience designing for enterprise SaaS or B2B platforms
Experience conducting end‑to‑end user research including interviews, surveys, and A/B testing
Exposure to data‑heavy or compliance‑driven product environments
Experience building or scaling a design system from the ground up
Experience with accessibility standards (WCAG 2.1) is a plus
Background in HR tech, compliance, or enterprise SaaS is a plus
