Senior / Lead Product Designer (UX/UI)

We are building an end-to-end digital ecosystem for insurance market participants. By bringing disparate services together into a single product, we are rethinking core functionality and creating next-generation digital services. You’ll face complex interaction scenarios, work with large volumes of data, and tackle non-trivial problems where product logic meets interface design.

We are looking for an experienced Lead UX/UI Designer who can join research efforts, interface design, and the adoption of cutting-edge AI tools into the team’s day-to-day practice from day one.

PROJECT TERMS

• Duration: 4 months (part-time/full-time contract), with the possibility of extension.
• Workload: 40 hours per week.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Full UX/UI cycle: from initial analytics and scenarios to high-fidelity interactive mockups.
• User research: conducting interviews, usability tests, and custdevs, and turning feedback into concrete product decisions.
• Involvement in product strategy: jointly formulating problems with the Product and Dev teams, and assessing risks and assumptions.
• Developing information architecture: maintaining consistent navigation logic as new modules are integrated.
• AI process optimization: using neural networks to speed up research, prototyping, and routine documentation.
• Design system work: maintaining, evolving, and documenting components.
• Product culture: actively participating in design reviews and exchanging constructive feedback.

CANDIDATE REQUIREMENTS

• 6+ years of experience in product design, with a portfolio that shows your thought process, decisions made, and business results.
• English: conversational B2+ or higher (confidently delivering presentations and defending design decisions and research).
• Solid background in B2B / Enterprise SaaS: complex analytics, dashboards, multi-step forms, and data-dense interfaces.
• Hands-on product research skills (interviews, usability tests), with examples of how the results influenced the final product.
• Ability to justify design decisions in terms of business goals and metrics.
• Experience using AI services in a real workflow and an understanding of their limitations.
• High level of autonomy: able to manage your own priorities, flag risks early, and propose solutions.
• Ability to work under uncertainty and with flexible, shifting priorities.
• Deep proficiency in Figma (variants, auto layout, tokenization, design systems).
• Experience in FinTech, Insurance, or other regulated industries.

NICE TO HAVE

• Experience in mentoring or running design critiques.
• Knowledge of product analytics (Amplitude or similar) for formulating and validating hypotheses.
• Prototyping with code or AI platforms.
• Experience building scalable information architecture.
