This is a generalist role for someone who thrives on variety and wants to touch every part of the design process, and will be the first full time UX and design hire at Kipsu. You will be instrumental in shaping our user experience, from high-level strategic thinking to pixel-perfect execution of design deliverables. You will be a champion of our users, taking ownership of our new design system, leading design for key product delivery teams (collaborating closely with product, engineering and QA) and kickstarting our formal UX research practice.

Your deliverables will include user flows, wireframes, interactive prototypes, and high-fidelity mockups for features across the product. Design System Leadership: Own, maintain, and evolve our existing web and mobile design systems. You will create new components, establish usage guidelines, ensure consistency and coherence across all digital platforms, write documentation, and work with engineering to ensure consistency and quality across all our products. Foundational UX Research: Establish and lead our UX research discipline. You will plan and conduct user interviews, usability tests, surveys, and other research methods to uncover user insights and validate design decisions. Synthesize & Evangelize: Turn raw research data into actionable insights, creating artifacts like personas, journey maps, and research reports. You will partner with Product Managers to be the voice of the user, effectively communicating findings to stakeholders across the company. Collaboration & Strategy: Actively participate in product strategy, roadmap planning, and design critiques. You will be a key partner to product and engineering, championing a user-centered design approach in everything we do. What We\'re Looking For
