We’re looking for a thoughtful, detail-driven UX Designer to join our growing team at Kmotion Design. You’ll play a key part in building out beautiful, high-performing web experiences (not product design).
You’ll lead research efforts, conduct user interviews and testing, and present key findings and recommendations to our internal team. Based on those insights, you’ll help shape strategic direction and work closely with stakeholders to define project scope and priorities. From there, you’ll support execution by building out components, applying and evolving style guides, creating wireframes, and collaborating with developers to bring designs to life.
This is a highly collaborative role. You won’t be expected to set the full creative vision, but you will be instrumental in shaping what gets built and why. If you’re passionate about thoughtful digital design, have a sharp eye for consistency and details, and love translating strategy into clean, intuitive user experiences, we’d love to hear from you.
