Job description

Zlan Creations is a Kochi-based strategy, growth and creative firm. We're now building a current consumer tech venture: a peer-to-peer marketplace app, pre-seed funded and in active build. We're looking for a senior designer to own the product's entire design experience from the ground up.

The role
You'll be the lead designer on the product. You'll shape how users discover, trust and transact with each other on the platform, from the first screen to the last. This is a zero-to-one role with real ownership: your decisions will define the product.

What you'll do
Own the end-to-end UX/UI for a mobile-first marketplace app serving two sides of the marketplace
Run user research, interviews and usability tests, and turn the findings into design decisions
Map user flows, information architecture and key journeys such as onboarding, profiles, search, matching and communication
Design for trust: verification, profiles, safety features and transparent communication between users
Create wireframes, prototypes and high-fidelity designs in Figma




Build and maintain a scalable design system from scratch
Work closely with developers on handoff, and review builds for design accuracy
Iterate quickly based on data, feedback and testing

Who you are
3+ years of UX/UI experience, with at least 2–3 years on mobile apps
A strong portfolio showing shipped products, your process and your thinking, not just polished screens
Experience with marketplace, consumer or two-sided platforms (strongly preferred)
Expert in Figma, including prototyping, auto-layout and design systems
Comfortable with user research and usability testing
Understands development constraints and works well with engineers
Thrives in ambiguity and moves rapid without losing quality
Ownership mindset: you care about outcomes, not just deliverables

Why join
Lead design on a new product from day one
Direct collaboration with the founder
Your work will define the product's look, feel and experience
Early-stage ownership with room to grow as the team scales

Pay: ₹30,000.00 - ₹50,000.00 per month

Work Location: In person
