Job Description:

Our client is seeking a UI/UX Designer to support the continued expansion of its SaaS product suite. You will own UX improvements for either the Records or Licensing & Tax product, partnering closely with Product Managers and Engineers to identify user pain points, redesign workflows, and deliver intuitive, user-centered experiences. The ideal candidate is a product-focused designer who leverages user research, analytics, and customer feedback to solve real business problems—not someone who simply creates visually appealing interfaces.

Day-to-Day Responsibilities:

Own UX/UI improvements across one of the company's core software products. Analyze product analytics, user research, customer feedback, and support tickets to identify usability issues and workflow bottlenecks. Investigate existing user journeys to determine where users struggle and why. Design improved user flows, wireframes, prototypes, and high-fidelity interfaces using Figma. Create entirely new user experiences when existing workflows require redesign. Validate design decisions through usability testing and user feedback. Iterate designs based on testing results and stakeholder input. Partner closely with Product Managers and Engineering teams throughout implementation. Participate in Agile ceremonies, including product standups and sprint planning. Independently manage Jira tickets and drive design initiatives with minimal oversight. Ensure designs align with usability, accessibility, and product best practices. Support developers during implementation by providing design specifications and clarifications.

Minimum Requirements:

3-5 years of UI/UX or Product Design experience. Expert-level proficiency with Figma. Experience designing digital products—not marketing websites or landing pages. Experience using product analytics, user research, customer feedback, and usability testing to identify UX problems. Experience owning the full design lifecycle from research and discovery through implementation and iteration. Strong portfolio containing detailed case studies that demonstrate problem-solving, research methodology, design decisions, and measurable outcomes. Experience creating both enhancements to existing products and entirely new user workflows. Strong understanding of UX principles, interaction design, and usability best practices. Experience collaborating closely with Product Managers and Software Engineers in Agile environments. Experience managing work through Jira. Excellent communication and presentation skills. Self-starter capable of owning projects without extensive management oversight.

Preferred Requirements:

Experience with Records Management software. Experience designing software for business licensing or tax applications. Experience working within government technology (GovTech) products. Experience with accessibility standards and inclusive design. Familiarity with product analytics tools such as Mixpanel, Amplitude, Pendo, or Google Analytics.
