Role Description
- Design flows, wireframes, high-fidelity screens and clickable prototypes in Figma.
- Design the core experiences: onboarding, snippet creation and editing, trigger setup, search, settings and sync status.
- Design the in-between states too: empty, loading, error, offline and sync-conflict screens.
- Adapt designs to each surface: browser extension, Windows, macOS and responsive web.
- Build and maintain a small, consistent design system with reusable components, Figma variables and light and dark themes.
- Design keyboard-first interactions and document shortcuts and focus behaviour.
- Check accessibility: contrast, readable text, clear labels and visible focus.
- Run quick usability tests with a few users and turn the findings into clear, prioritised changes.
- Hand designs to developers with specs, assets and every interaction state, then review the built screens.
Required
- Figma: components, Auto Layout, variants and interactive prototyping.
- Design basics: typography, spacing, color, layout and visual hierarchy.
- A portfolio with at least one or two projects showing your process. Academic and personal projects are fine.
- Clear written communication and the ability to work independently while remote.
- Figma variables and design tokens, and FigJam.
- Basic HTML and CSS knowledge, so you know what developers can build.
- Familiarity with WCAG accessibility basics.
- Usability testing tools such as Maze.
- Basic React or Git awareness.
What you get
- Real work on a live product, with direct mentorship and design feedback from the founder.
- A certificate of completion and a reference letter for strong performance.
