About the Role

We are looking for an experienced UI/UX Designer to join a major development project where a team of approximately 10 people is building an advanced, business-critical application.

This is not a developer role. The focus is on creating UI/UX deliverables that serve both as design documentation for developers and as requirements documentation in collaboration with the client.

The application operates in a complex environment with large volumes of information, multiple user roles, and high demands for clarity, usability, and a consistent user experience.

Responsibilities

As a UI/UX Designer, you will work closely with developers and other team members in an agile, cross-functional environment. You must be able to understand both business requirements and technical constraints and translate them into effective design solutions.

A key part of the assignment is to create a consistent, purpose-driven, and polished user experience throughout the application.

You will:

• Create requirements and design documentation together with the team.
• Develop wireframes, user flows, prototypes, and final UI designs in Figma.
• Design user experiences for different user roles within the application.
• Explore creative data visualization solutions to make complex information more accessible and easy to understand.
• Work iteratively with developers in an agile team.
• Contribute to the development and enhancement of design systems and visual guidelines.
• Communicate, explain, and justify design decisions to both technical and business stakeholders.

Requirements

• Several years of experience in UI/UX design.
• Strong and extensive experience with Figma.
• Experience designing desktop applications and/or Single Page Applications (SPAs) for desktop users.
• Experience working iteratively in agile, cross-functional development teams.
• Strong understanding of user-centered design principles and modern UI practices.
• Ability to collaborate closely with developers and understand technical possibilities and limitations.
• Ability to independently take designs from requirements and concepts to prototypes and final UI deliverables.

Preferred Qualifications

• Understanding of design principles that reduce cognitive load, particularly in information-intensive applications.
• Experience with user stories and/or journey mapping.
• Experience with, or strong interest in, data visualization.
• Interest or experience in graphic design for printed materials, reports, or presentations.
• Basic experience with Microsoft PowerPoint.
