User Interface Designer

Role Overview: As a UI/UX Designer with 4–6 years of professional experience, you will own the end-to-end design process—from user research and wireframing through high-fidelity mockups and interactive prototypes. You’ll collaborate closely with product managers, front-end developers and Project leads to ensure cohesive user journeys and polished visual interfaces. Key Responsibilities: User Experience (UX) ● Conduct user research, including interviews, surveys, and contextual inquiries, to uncover pain points and opportunities. ● Create user personas, customer journey maps, site maps, and information architectures to guide product strategy. ● Develop low- to mid-fidelity wireframes and interactive prototypes (Figma, Sketch, Adobe XD) for usability testing. ● Run A/B tests, analyze usability metrics, and iterate designs based on quantitative and qualitative feedback. User Interface (UI) ● Design pixel-perfect, responsive visual layouts and components adhering to brand guidelines and accessibility standards (WCAG 2.1). ● Maintain and evolve design systems (tokens, libraries, documentation) for consistency across web and mobile platforms. ● Collaborate with front-end engineers to translate designs into production-ready code (CSS-in-JS, Tailwind, Storybook). Cross-Functional Collaboration ● Partner with project leads and engineers in Agile ceremonies (sprint planning, reviews, retrospectives) to align on priorities and deliverables. ● Present design rationale and trade-offs to Project leads and Managers and team, championing user-centered decisions at every stage. ● Mentor junior designers and conduct peer critiques to elevate team design maturity. Required Qualifications UX Expertise: ● 4–6 years crafting end-to-end UX flows for web and mobile products, with a solid portfolio of research-driven projects ● Proficiency in user-centered design methods: user interviews, usability testing, card sorting, and heuristic evaluations. ● Advanced skills in wireframing and prototyping tools: Figma, Sketch, Adobe XD, Axure RP.. UI Mastery ● Strong visual design sensibility: typography, color theory, iconography, and layout principles. ● Experience building and maintaining component-based design systems and working knowledge of HTML/CSS and react fundamentals. ● Familiarity with responsive and adaptive design patterns across multiple breakpoints. Tools & Technologies ● Expertise with design hand-off tools: Zeplin, InVision, Abstract, or Figma Inspect. ● Basic understanding of front-end technologies (React, CSS-in-JS) to collaborate effectively with developers. ● Experience with version control for design files (Figma branching, Abstract workflows). Research & Analysis ● Skilled in qualitative and quantitative research methods, including analytics tools (Google Analytics, Hotjar, Mixpanel). ● Ability to derive insights from data, synthesize findings, and translate into actionable design improvements. Preferred Qualifications ● Experience designing for enterprise-grade or defense-critical applications. ● Familiarity with motion design principles and tools (Principle, After Effects, Lottie). ● Knowledge of accessibility audit tools (axe, WAVE) and inclusive design best practices. ● Exposure to service-design or content-strategy disciplines. Soft Skills ● Excellent communication and presentation skills, with the ability to articulate design decisions to non-design audiences ● Strong collaboration mindset: receptive to feedback and adept at negotiation and conflict resolution. ● Detail-oriented, with a passion for pixel perfection and polished user experiences. ● Self-driven and adaptable, thriving in fast-paced, Agile environments
