Role Overview: We're looking for a creative yet analytical UI/UX Designer to join our team. This is not a purely visual role — we need someone who can think like a designer and communicate like a consultant.

• Collaborate closely with business analysts, developers, and QA teams to ensure designs are technically feasible and aligned with requirements
• Conduct usability testing and iterate based on feedback
• Maintain and evolve design systems and component libraries
• Support the broader team in producing polished client-facing presentations and materials

Requirements

• 4–6 years of experience in UI/UX design, ideally within a technology delivery or consulting context Proficiency in design tools such as Figma (required)
• Exceptional English communication skills — both written and verbal — with the ability to present and defend design decisions to diverse audiences
• Proven ability to engage stakeholders, run discovery sessions, and translate ambiguous briefs into clear design outcomes
• Strong portfolio demonstrating user-centered design thinking across real-world products
• Experience working in a startup or small business environment
• Comfortable working independently and managing priorities across multiple concurrent projects

Nice to Have:

• Background or demonstrable experience in Business Analysis — requirements elicitation, user story writing, gap analysis, or process mapping
• Familiarity with Agile delivery, JIRA, or Confluence
• Experience supporting or collaborating within cross-functional product or technology teams
• Hands on experience with AI assisted Design methods and technologies.

What We Offer:

• Competitive salary
• Working hours: Monday to Friday, 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM AEST/AEDT
• Partnership approach ("work with us, not for us")
• Contractors responsible for their own taxes and business expenses
