Lead UI/UX Designer

About the Role

We're seeking a visionary Lead UI/UX Designer to pioneer the next generation of AI-powered enterprise solutions. This is a unique opportunity to shape how large-scale organizations leverage AI to transform their operations, streamline complex workflows, and better serve their stakeholders.

Key Responsibilities

1. Design End-to-End AI Workflows

• Understand existing workflows

  in complex organizations through immersive research

• Reimagine processes

  using AI capabilities while respecting compliance requirements

• Design human-in-the-loop systems

  that maintain accountability and transparency

• Create adaptive interfaces

  that guide users through context-setting, AI interaction, and output verification

2. Pioneer Enterprise AI Interaction Models

• Invent new UX paradigms

  for probabilistic systems with no existing precedents

• Design for uncertainty

  by creating interfaces that communicate confidence levels and alternatives

• Develop trust mechanisms

  that help users confidently leverage AI recommendations

• Create verification workflows

  that make it easy to validate AI outputs before implementation

3. Translate Complex Organizational Processes into Intuitive Interfaces

• Convert dense operational workflows

  into clear, step-by-step guided experiences

• Design for diverse user bases

  from field workers to executives

• Ensure accessibility compliance

  with industry standards (WCAG, ADA)

• Minimize training requirements

  through intuitive, self-explanatory designs

4. Conduct Deep Contextual Research

• Embed with client teams

  to understand daily workflows and pain points

• Interview stakeholders

  across organizational hierarchies

• Map existing processes

  and identify AI transformation opportunities

• Create personas and journey maps

  specific to enterprise roles

5. Collaborate Across Multidisciplinary Teams

• Partner with AI/ML engineers

  to understand model capabilities and limitations

• Work with domain experts

  to ensure compliance with industry regulations

• Collaborate with business analysts

  to align designs with organizational goals

• Advocate for user needs

  while balancing technical and compliance constraints

6. Rapid Prototyping and Validation

• Create low-fidelity prototypes

  to test AI interaction concepts quickly

• Develop high-fidelity mockups

  for stakeholder buy-in

• Conduct usability testing

  with actual end users

• Iterate rapidly

  based on feedback and AI model improvements

7. Establish and Maintain Design System

• Define design tokens

  (typography, color, spacing, motion), component specs, and usage guidelines aligned to WCAG 2.2 AA and enterprise compliance needs (audit trails, provenance indicators)

• Build reusable UI components

  - Create and maintain a

  Figma library

  and

  code-aligned component library

  (e.g., Storybook) that developers can adopt across products

• Governance & contribution model

  - Set versioning, review gates, and contribution workflow with PM/Engineering (changelog, deprecation policy)

• Handoff excellence

  - Provide redlines, component APIs, empty/error/loading states, and telemetry hooks; partner with engineers to ensure high-fidelity implementation

• Theming & localization

  - Ensure tokens/components support theming (CSS variables) and i18n/RTL-LTR considerations

• Experience measuring

  component adoption

  ,

  time-to-ship

  reduction, and

  UX consistency

  metrics
• Ability to create and present component case studies showing tokens, states, accessibility considerations, and code/API handoff
