UX Designer

Roles & Responsibilities

• Design end-to-end user experiences, user flows, wireframes, interaction models, and high-fidelity, production-ready UI for operational (floor/terminal) and back-office contexts.
• Work within and contribute to a single brand design language, reusing shared components and design tokens; vary layout/component selection to fit context rather than creating divergent designs.
• Leverage AI-assisted design tools to accelerate the workflow, including rapid concept generation, variant exploration, prototype scaffolding, UX copy drafting, and design-system documentation while critically reviewing and refining all AI output to meet quality and brand standards.
• Use AI to generate and iterate on prototypes (including AI-driven UI/prototype generation such as Claude / Claude-based design and prototyping workflows) to validate concepts quickly with stakeholders.
• Partner with Business Analysts and Product to translate BRDs, Epics, and Features into clear, usable designs; participate in refinement and design-review cycles.
• Collaborate with engineering to ensure faithful implementation via design-system components (not bespoke restyling); provide specs, redlines, and design QA.
• Maintain and extend the design system (component states, patterns, tokens, accessibility guidance) and help limit design drift across designers, including exploring AI to keep documentation and patterns in sync.
• Help define and improve AI-in-the-design-process practices, prompt patterns, tool selection, and guardrails for using AI responsibly in a regulated, high-compliance environment.
• Ensure designs meet accessibility, responsiveness, and usability standards, including varied device/terminal form factors and light/dark modes.
• Document design decisions, rationale, and interaction patterns so work is maintainable and hand-off-ready.

Required Experience & Qualifications

• 5+ years of professional UX/UI design experience delivering complex, data-dense enterprise or operational software (SaaS, workflow, or transactional systems).
• Strong portfolio demonstrating end-to-end design: research/flows, wireframes, high-fidelity UI, and shipped products.
• Demonstrated, hands-on experience using AI tools in the design process, e.g., AI-assisted prototyping and UI generation (such as Claude / Claude-based design workflows), image/asset generation, and AI for UX writing, research synthesis, or design documentation.
• Ability to write effective prompts and critically evaluate, edit, and integrate AI-generated output rather than accepting it at face value.
• Hands-on expertise with modern design tooling (e.g., Figma), including component libraries, variants, auto-layout, and design tokens.
• Experience designing with and contributing to a design system / component library; understanding of how designs map to front-end component implementation (e.g., React/MUI-based systems).
• Solid grasp of interaction design, information architecture, and usability principles for high-throughput operational workflows.
• Working knowledge of accessibility standards (e.g., WCAG) and responsive/multi-device design.
• Ability to collaborate with product, business analysts, and engineering in an agile environment, including regular refinement and design reviews.
• Strong communication skills; able to present and justify design decisions and work within brand/design governance.
• Self-directed and able to deliver independently as a contractor with minimal ramp-up.

Nice to Have Experience

• Integrating AI tools into a team design system or standardizing AI-assisted workflows across designers.
• Experience in gaming, casino operations, financial, or other regulated/high-compliance domains.
• Familiarity with multi-tenant product design and localization/internationalization.
• Experience with design-token pipelines and cross-product brand kits.
