About the Role

This is a senior, hands-on UI/UX design role for someone who is genuinely strong across the entire design spectrum both UX (research, flows, information architecture, usability) and UI (visual craft, design systems, interaction detail). You will own design end-to-end for products and features across our SaaS portfolio, from problem through to polished, production-ready interface and developer handoff.

This is a senior role that combines hands-on design with team leadership. You will be the most experienced designer in the room, set the quality standard through your own work, and manage a team of around five designers owning their output, priorities, growth, and quality of work. You will still design directly; this is a hands-on leader role, not a pure management seat. You should be comfortable in a high-paced IT / product workplace, able to juggle multiple products, and self-directed enough to drive design without hand-holding.

Key Responsibilities End-to-End Product Design

- Own the full design process across products: research, flows, wireframes, prototypes, and final UI.
- Conduct user research and usability testing, and turn findings into clear design decisions.
- Design pixel-perfect, responsive interfaces for web and mobile, to a senior standard.
- Make and defend design decisions based on user needs and product goals.
- Design Systems Craft Standard
- Build and maintain design systems, component libraries, and standards across products.
- Set and hold the visual and interaction quality bar your work is the reference others follow.
- Drive consistency across a portfolio of products, not just individual screens.

Team Leadership Collaboration

- Manage a team of around five designers set priorities, review work, hold the quality bar,



and support their growth.
- Partner closely with product managers and developers for clean handoff and faithful implementation.
- Collaborate with the brand / marketing team to keep product and brand aligned.
- Balance your own hands-on design work with leading the team, at pace, across multiple products.

Required Skills Experience

- Experience: 5+ years of hands-on UI/UX / product design, with a strong portfolio that proves depth
- Full-spectrum UI/UX: genuinely strong across both UX (research, flows, IA, usability) and UI (visual craft, design systems, interaction) not specialized in only one side
- IT / product background: experience designing software / SaaS / digital products in an IT or product company
- Fast-paced environment: proven ability to deliver quality in a high-paced, multi-project setting
- Tools: advanced Figma (mandatory); plus Adobe XD / Sketch / Framer as relevant
- Design systems: real experience building and maintaining design systems and component libraries
- Team leadership: experience managing or leading a design team of around five setting priorities, reviewing work, and developing designers
- Communication: clear communicator who can present and defend design decisions to product and engineering

Nice to Have

- Working knowledge of graphic design tools (Photoshop, Illustrator, Canva) for supporting visual assets a plus,



not a requirement.
- Experience designing for AI-driven products (chat, agents, AI-output states).
- Familiarity with AI design tools (Figma AI, Uizard, Galileo, or similar).
- Basic understanding of front-end constraints (components, responsive behaviour, HTML/CSS) for clean handoff.

The Ideal Candidate

- Is a senior, full-spectrum product designer equally strong at UX thinking and UI craft.
- Comes from an IT / product / SaaS background and thrives in a fast-paced environment.
- Sets the quality bar through their own work and leads a small design team.
- Is self-directed, owns design across multiple products, and delivers without hand-holding.
- Can balance hands-on design with managing and growing a team of around five.

Portfolio Requirement

A strong portfolio is required; applications without one will not be reviewed. We want to see senior-level work that shows both your UX thinking (the problem, research, and decisions) and your UI craft (the final, polished interface). Relevant SaaS / product / AI work will stand out. Be prepared to walk us through one or two projects in depth.

Portfolio / Hiring Process

The process focuses on real design ability: portfolio review, an initial HR conversation, a practical design assignment (which you will present and defend), and a panel discussion with the product and engineering teams. The emphasis throughout is on your portfolio and the assignment—the actual work.
