About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Work within our established Figma design system and component library to design and refine screens, flows, and UI elements for our core software application.
Maintain consistency across the product UI, applying existing patterns and flagging gaps or inconsistencies in the design system.
Support product and engineering teams with design updates, annotations, and production-ready handoff assets.
Use AI-assisted tools — including Claude for generating and pressure-testing UX and UI concepts — to accelerate ideation and explore design options quickly.
Design, build, and maintain Webflow pages; execute content updates; and use analytics, SEO, and AI-driven discovery insights to improve site performance and visibility.
Resize, adapt, and optimize digital assets for web use, including images, icons, and graphics.
Produce polished slide decks for executive briefings, client presentations, conferences, and internal communications using our established presentation templates.
Translate data, research findings, and written content into clear, visually organized slides — making complex information accessible.
Manage a library of reusable slide components and keep templates up to date.
Produce print-ready files for brochures, one-pagers, event materials, and signage using existing brand templates in Adobe InDesign and Illustrator.
Coordinate with print vendors to ensure accurate specs, proofing, and on-time delivery.
Maintain an organized asset library and keep brand files clean, version-controlled, and accessible to the team.

Requirements

What you’ll need

1–3 years of professional design experience, ideally with exposure across digital and print.
Working proficiency in Figma — comfortable navigating a component library, building within a design system, and preparing handoff files.
Hands-on experience with Adobe Creative Suite: InDesign, Illustrator, and Photoshop for production work.
Some experience with Webflow, or strong motivation and aptitude to learn it quickly.
Solid fundamentals in layout, typography, and color — an eye for when something is off, and the patience to fix it.
Strong organizational habits: clean files, clear naming conventions, and a tidy handoff are as important to you as the design itself.
A portfolio that demonstrates care and craft, even in production-level work.
