insightsoftware is seeking a User Interface Designer to join the newly established UX team within the Certent Equity Management (CEM) product organization. Reporting to the UX Manager, Equity, this role is responsible for designing intuitive, visually consistent, and production-ready interfaces across the CEM platform—translating complex equity compensation workflows into clean, usable experiences for plan administrators, finance teams, participants, and broker partners.

Interface Design & Execution

• Design wireframes, high-fidelity mockups, interactive prototypes, and final UI specifications for features and enhancements across all CEM product domains—including equity plan administration, ESPP, batch processing, broker integrations, admin reporting, financial reporting, and participant experiences.
• Translate PRDs, user stories, and functional requirements into thoughtful interface designs that account for the complexity of equity compensation workflows.
• Design for the full spectrum of interaction patterns required in an equity management SaaS platform—data entry, inline editing, bulk operations, search and filtering, drill‑down navigation, scheduled job monitoring, and export/print formatting.
• Iterate rapidly on designs based on feedback from UX Researchers, Product Managers, Engineering, and customer input, maintaining a bias toward evidence‑informed refinement over assumption.

Design System & Component Library

• Partner with the UX Manager to create and maintain a unified design system and component library for the CEM platform, ensuring visual and interaction consistency across all modules and domains.
• Design and document reusable UI components—including form controls, data tables, navigation patterns, status indicators, modal dialogs, notification systems, and reporting layouts—with clear usage guidelines, states, and accessibility annotations.
• Define and evolve the visual language of the CEM platform—including typography, color systems, spacing, iconography, and elevation—balancing brand alignment with the functional demands of a data‑intensive financial application.
• Maintain the design system as a living resource, updating components as new patterns emerge and ensuring consistency as the platform scales across existing work streams.

Research Collaboration & User‑Centered Design

• Partner with UX Researchers to incorporate research findings, usability test results, and customer feedback directly into design decisions.
• Participate in research sessions—usability tests, customer interviews, contextual inquiries—to build firsthand empathy for how equity administrators, finance teams, and participants interact with the platform.
• Use research insights to inform design direction, validate design hypotheses, and refine interfaces through iterative testing cycles.
• Apply domain knowledge of equity compensation workflows to anticipate user expectations and design for scenarios that generic usability principles alone would not surface.

Product Collaboration & Engineering Handoff

• Partner with Product Managers across all CEM domains to understand feature requirements, business logic, and user workflows, translating complex specifications into clear, implementable interface designs.
• Deliver detailed design specifications and annotated mockups that provide engineering with unambiguous guidance on layout, spacing, interaction behavior, component usage, states, error handling, and responsive breakpoints.
• Collaborate with front‑end engineering to ensure design intent is preserved through…
