About [REDACTED]

At [REDACTED], we connect exceptional talent with top opportunities at leading companies across the UK, US, Canada, Europe, and Australia. Our clients include high-growth startups, digital agencies, and innovative product-led companies across industries such as SaaS, FinTech, eCommerce, AI, and EdTech.

Role Type: Full-time

Engagement: Independent Contractor

Job Summary

We are looking for a Senior Product Designer with 5+ years of experience in UI/UX and product design to lead the creation of user-centric digital products. This is a remote product design role where you will own the full design lifecycle—from discovery and research to high-fidelity design and iteration.

You will collaborate closely with product managers, engineers, and stakeholders to deliver seamless, impactful user experiences that drive engagement and business outcomes.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead end-to-end product design processes: user research, wireframing, prototyping, and UI design
  • Define user flows, journey maps, and interaction patterns for web and mobile applications
  • Design high-fidelity interfaces that align with brand and usability best practices
  • Conduct usability testing and leverage data to inform design decisions
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with product, engineering, and marketing teams
  • Build, maintain, and evolve design systems and component libraries
  • Ensure designs are responsive, accessible, and scalable
  • Present design concepts and rationale clearly to stakeholders

Requirements

  • 5+ years of experience in Product Design, UI/UX Design, or Interaction Design
  • Strong portfolio demonstrating end-to-end product design work
  • Proficiency in tools such as Figma, Sketch, Adobe XD, or similar
  • Solid understanding of user-centered design principles and UX best practices
  • Experience with design systems and scalable UI frameworks
  • Familiarity with data-driven design and experimentation (A/B testing)
  • Basic understanding of front-end technologies (HTML, CSS, JavaScript) is a plus
  • Strong problem-solving, communication, and collaboration skills
  • Experience working in remote, cross-functional teams

Benefits

  • 💻 Fully Remote: Work from anywhere with international teams
  • 🚀 Career Growth: Join companies in SaaS, MarTech, and B2B services
  • 🤝 Peer Community: Connect with high-performing sales professionals in our network
  • 🧭 Ongoing Support: Receive guidance from [REDACTED] before and after placement
  • 💰 Tailored Compensation: Salaries vary by client and candidate preference — we’ll match you with options that fit your goals
