We have an immediate need for a hands-on Front End UI/UX Developer to work on the transformation of enterprise applications that have struggled with user adoption. This is not a greenfield role — you'll be handed real products with real friction, and your mandate is to diagnose why users aren't engaging and rebuild experiences that they actually want to use. You'll work at the intersection of design, engineering, and data, embedding your work into AI/ML, analytics, and cloud-native platforms.
