About the Role
You'll be working alongside our Lead Desktop Designer day-to-day, while also collaborating regularly with the larger design team, motion graphics team, and user acquisition team to bring ideas to life from wireframes to polished UIs. While the lead drives the vision, you'll turn concepts into reality with speed, precision, and polish. You'll also stay responsive to shifting priorities, adapt to quick turnarounds, and always design with developer feasibility in mind. This is not a research- or strategy-heavy role. We're looking for someone who's happy to execute, tweak, and finesse. If you love clean pixels, smooth systems, and being the reliable engine behind great product design this is your role.
Key Responsibilities
Translate wireframes and rough concepts into crisp, production-ready designs
Build and maintain high-quality UI components for browser extensions and desktop apps
Collaborate closely with our lead designer and developers to ensure fast, clean handoff
Make smart decisions about when to polish vs. when to ship
Adapt to shifting priorities and irregular work cadences without missing a beat
Keep designs tight, lean, and respectful of developer constraints
Bring taste and craft, even to tight-turnaround projects
Contribute to a shared design system and maintain consistency across platforms
Who You Are
3+ years of UI/UX experience with a strong emphasis on desktop design
A portfolio that shows clean, dev-friendly UI work—bonus for any
browser-related experience or browser extension examples
Deep proficiency with Figma and an efficient, systemized approach to
design
Ability to take direction, iterate fast, and not get precious
Strong eye for detail and consistency
Comfort working in ambiguity and shifting strategies
Respect for dev workloads—your work should make their lives easier, not
harder
Reliable, communicative, and fun to work with under pressure
Nice to Have
Experience designing responsive layouts for desktop applications, with
consideration for mobile and adaptive views
Light working knowledge of HTML/CSS/JS (enough to understand
constraints)
Comfort using AI tools (e.G., ChatGPT, Midjourney) for speed and
inspiration
Familiarity with accessibility and internationalization basics
