Senior UI​/UX Engineer

Job Description Summary

We're looking for a Senior UI/UX Designer with 5–8 years of experience to join our product team. In this role, you'll own end-to-end design work — from discovery and research through to high‑fidelity prototypes and design system contributions — for our suite of screening and compliance products. You'll partner closely with product managers, engineers, and stakeholders to deliver intuitive, accessible, and modern user experiences.

• Lead UX research, journey mapping, and usability testing to uncover user needs and pain points
• Design wireframes, interactive prototypes, and high‑fidelity mockups for web and mobile experiences
• 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
• Work within an Agile Kanban framework — writing clear acceptance criteria, participating in sprint planning, and managing your own work through Jira
• Present design decisions and rationale to cross‑functional stakeholders
• Champion user‑centered design practices across the organization

• 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

• 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

• User‑Centered Thinking – Naturally advocates for the end user in every design decision, balancing business goals with real human needs
• Visual & Interaction Design – Strong craft across layout, typography, color, and motion with a keen eye for detail and consistency
• Cross‑Functional Collaboration – Works effectively with product, engineering, and business stakeholders to align on goals and deliver cohesive experiences
• Systems Thinking – Designs with scalability in mind, contributing to and leveraging design systems rather than one‑off solutions
• Agile Adaptability – Thrives in a fast‑moving Agile environment, managing priorities and iterating quickly based on feedback
• Communication & Storytelling – Clearly articulates design rationale and influences decision‑making through well‑structured presentations and documentation
