** About the Role Seeking a Junior UX Designer on a long-term contract to support mission-critical digital products for real-time drilling operations. You will embed directly with the UX team, working within an established design system alongside senior designers and cross-functional engineering teams to deliver clear, efficient interfaces for field engineers and operations personnel.

What You’ll Do
• Design wireframes, user flows, interaction models, and high-fidelity prototypes for enterprise web applications
• Collaborate with product owners, engineers, and subject matter experts to translate complex operational workflows into intuitive UI
• Participate in user research, usability testing, and design critiques
• Contribute to and maintain components within the Design System (Figma + Angular/Prime

NG)
• Use AI-assisted coding tools to rapidly prototype and validate design concepts in-browser — Git Hub Copilot (required);
Claude (preferred); familiarity with browser-based AI builders such as Bolt or v0 a plus
• Deliver design specs, annotations, and developer handoff documentation via Figma
• Support accessibility reviews and ensure designs meet WCAG 2.1 AA standards
• Participate in agile ceremonies within a sprint-based development environment

What We’re Looking For
** Required*
* • 2–5 years of UX/product design experience, preferably in enterprise or SaaS environments
• Strong Figma proficiency — components, auto layout, variables, prototyping
• Demonstrated ability to produce wireframes, user flows, and interactive prototypes
• Experience working with or contributing to a design system
• Working knowledge of AI-assisted prototyping — Git Hub Copilot (required); ability to generate functional HTML/CSS/JS prototypes; familiarity with browser-based AI builders such as Bolt or v0 a plus
• Understanding of front-end fundamentals sufficient to prototype and collaborate effectively with engineers

• Exposure to Token Studio, Figma Variables, or design token pipelines
• Background in industrial, O&G, or engineering software

Skills & Competencies
• User research & synthesis — interviews, usability testing, affinity mapping
• Information architecture & interaction design
• Visual design fundamentals — typography, spacing, hierarchy, color
• Design system contribution — not just consumption
• AI-assisted prototyping — core expectation, not a bonus
• Clear communication and ability to present and defend design decisions
• Comfortable operating in ambiguity and iterating quickly
