UI/UX Designer

We’re not going to pretend this is “the most innovative blockchain/web3/ai/sustainability/soulbound-identity/metaverse startup ever”. It’s a mid-sized product company that prints decent money, ships consumer-facing mobile & web apps people actually use every day, and has more budget than most “mission-driven” teams that pay in pizza and RSUs worth $0.02 tomorrow.

What we actually need right now:

• You draw clean, modern, feminine-leaning interfaces that make 18–34-year-old women say “ooooh I want that” instead of “okay I guess”
• You care about micro-interactions, motion, hover states, scroll-jacking-that-actually-feels-good, glass-morphism done right, neumorphism that doesn’t look like 2020 cancer
• You can defend “this button needs 1 more px of padding and 4% more border-radius” with actual user testing numbers or at least a vibe check that holds up in a 30-second video call
• Figma is your main weapon (bonus: you also bully people in principle about why “we should migrate everything to FigJam + Variables + Dev Mode”)
• You’re fast when we need fast, obsessive when we need pretty, and diplomatic when the PM is pushing Comic Sans “because it tests better with our audience in tier-3 cities”

Realistic weekly mix (not the corporate-lie version):

• 40% new features / big redesigns
• 30% making existing shitty screens not look like they were designed in 2018
• 15% “can you make this 20% sexier by Tuesday?”
• 10% arguing with backend guys about why 48×48 px icons are not “good enough”
• 5% posting process porn / before-afters in the company Telegram that get 40+ 🔥 reactions

Who usually kills it here (anatomy of our best recent hires):

• Very online aesthetic taste (you know exactly which Pinterest boards / Beige/Balletcore/S Clean Girl / coquette / mob wife / indie sleaze / whatever wave we’re on right now)
• Portfolio that makes straight guys pause scrolling for 3+ seconds
• Zero tolerance for ugly gradients and 2016 Material shadows
• Can speak in zoom without turning into a potato web-cam gremlin
• Doesn’t die inside when asked to design yet another auth / onboarding / subscription screen

What you get besides money:

• No daily stand-ups longer than 7 minutes
• Designers outnumber PMs 2:1 (rare)
• MacBook Pro + 4K monitor + whatever chair / lamp / plant / diffuser makes you feel like a Pinterest girl
• Zero dress-code / zero “corporate core” energy
• Team that actually uses the apps we build so feedback is fast & savage
• Budget for courses / conferences / Dribbble pro / whatever if you can justify it

How to apply so we actually open your portfolio:

Just send:

1. Link to your Figma / Behance / personal site / whatever (no 38-page PDFs please)
2. One sentence: what kind of aesthetic / product vibe turns you on the most right now

CV is optional if the portfolio already slaps.
