Frontend Design Engineer | Remotive
Job Description
The role that makes everything intuitive (and lets the team focus on impact)
This is partnership, not decoration. Be the champion of user experience across our digital platforms. Own design—research, wireframes, prototypes, and accessibility—so every interaction is simple, engaging, and secure. You’ll turn complex healthcare workflows into delightful, usable products that empower both patients and providers.
Values & vibe (who you are)
We want a velvet advocate: empathetic, curious, and practical—who also ships designs. You defend the user perspective with kind authority, make accessibility approachable, and help the team deliver products that truly work. You’re the amplifier for a creative, mission-driven team that never compromises usability or patient safety.
A day in flow (the feel, not a script)
- Two-minute check-in—user insights gathered, prototypes iterated, one design risk escalated.
- During design sprints: convert research → wireframes + mockups + actionable feedback before the day ends.
- After: Figma/Sketch updates, developer handoff notes live, usability findings documented, polite nudges sent. Quiet impact, zero drama.
What you’ll own
- User research & testing: interviews, surveys, and usability sessions to uncover patient and provider needs.
- Interaction & visual design: wireframes, prototypes, and flows that simplify complex processes.
- Accessibility & inclusivity: ensure designs meet WCAG and healthcare accessibility standards.
- Collaboration: work closely with engineers, product managers, and clinicians to ensure design feasibility and quality implementation.
- Design system & standards: maintain and evolve consistent design patterns across products.
- Advocacy: represent the user in product strategy and roadmap discussions.
- Continuous learning: stay up to date on best practices in UX, UI, and healthcare technology design.
Authority (ramped on purpose)
You’ll set UX standards from day one. Scope ramps as you deliver: approve or decline design implementations, enforce accessibility and usability guidelines, and escalate issues early—with our full backing.
Schedule (India)
Works daytime hours with 4–8 hours of overlap to US Pacific (e.g., 11:00am–7:00pm CT / 9:00am–5:00pm PT), with flexibility for critical design reviews or research sessions.
What success looks like
- User feedback positive, adoption high, errors minimized.
- Design handoffs smooth and developer-friendly.
- Accessibility compliance met consistently.
- Products that feel intuitive, engaging, and mission-aligned.
What you’ve done
- 3+ years as a UX Designer, Product Designer, or similar role.
- Strong portfolio demonstrating user-centered design outcomes.
- Proficient with Figma, Sketch, Adobe XD, or similar tools.
- Experienced in user research and usability testing.
- Knowledge of responsive design, mobile-first principles, and accessibility standards.
- Excellent communication and collaboration skills.
- Preferred: healthcare IT, telehealth, HIPAA knowledge, Agile product development experience, UI design contributions.
