Product Designer – UX/UI, Figma & Design Systems | Remote Position Type: Full-Time, Remote Working Hours: U.S. Business Hours About the Role At Pavago, one of our clients is hiring a Product Designer to create intuitive, scalable, and visually polished digital experiences across web and mobile products. This is not a purely visual UI design role. You’ll own the product design process from user research and UX flows through wireframes, prototypes, high-fidelity interfaces, design systems, and developer handoff. You’ll work closely with product managers and engineers to simplify complex workflows and create experiences that are functional, accessible, user-friendly, and aligned with business goals. If you combine strong UX thinking, UI craftsmanship, product problem-solving, and Figma expertise, this role is a strong fit. What You’ll Own User Research & Product Discovery • Conduct user interviews, usability tests, surveys, and product research • Identify user pain points, friction, and product improvement opportunities • Create: • Personas • Journey maps • User flows • Interaction models • Analyze user behavior using tools such as: • Mixpanel • Amplitude • Hotjar • Translate research and product insights into actionable design decisions UX Design & Product Flows • Design intuitive workflows across web and mobile products • Translate product requirements into: • User flows • Wireframes • Interactive prototypes • Simplify complex interactions into clear, easy-to-use experiences • Consider edge cases and different user states throughout the design process • Iterate quickly based on user, product, and stakeholder feedback UI Design & Prototyping • Create polished, high-fidelity product interfaces using: • Figma • Adobe XD • Sketch • Design responsive experiences across: • Desktop • Tablet • Mobile • Establish clear: • Visual hierarchy • Interaction patterns • Micro-interactions • Interface consistency • Balance visual quality with usability and product functionality Design Systems & Scalability • Build and maintain scalable design systems • Develop reusable component libraries • Define standards for: • Typography • Spacing • Color • Icons • Components • UI patterns • Maintain consistency across products and features • Improve collaboration between design and engineering through structured systems Product & Engineering Collaboration • Partner closely with Product Managers to define requirements and priorities • Collaborate with engineers throughout implementation • Prepare developer-ready: • Designs • Assets • Specifications • Documentation • Use Figma Dev Mode or similar workflows for efficient handoff • Review implementations and help resolve design discrepancies • Support QA and refinement through development and release Testing & Continuous Improvement • Conduct usability reviews on existing and newly launched experiences • Gather user and stakeholder feedback after releases • Run or support A/B tests to validate design decisions • Analyze product performance and identify UX improvements • Continuously iterate to improve: • Usability • Engagement • Retention • Task completion Required Experience & Skills • 2+ years of professional Product Design or UX/UI Design experience • Strong proficiency with Figma, Adobe XD, or Sketch • Experience designing responsive web and mobile products • Strong understanding of: • UX principles • Interaction design • Usability • Accessibility • Responsive design • Experience creating: • User flows • Wireframes • Prototypes • High-fidelity interfaces • Experience collaborating directly with product and engineering teams • Strong portfolio demonstrating product thinking and UX problem-solving, not just visual design • Excellent written and verbal communication skills • Comfortable working remotely during U.S. business hours Preferred Experience • Experience designing: • SaaS platforms • B2B products • Consumer applications • Experience building or maintaining design systems and component libraries • Familiarity with product analytics and experimentation tools such as: • Mixpanel • Amplitude • Optimizely • Hotjar • Understanding of HTML/CSS or front-end development fundamentals • Experience working in Agile or sprint-based product teams What Makes You a Strong Fit You: • Think about user problems before pixels • Can simplify complicated workflows into intuitive experiences • Balance user needs with business and technical requirements • Think in systems, components, and scalable patterns • Communicate and defend design decisions clearly • Collaborate effectively with product managers and engineers • Care about implementation quality, not just the Figma file • Move quickly while maintaining attention to detail What a Typical Day Looks Like You may: • Review user behavior and identify UX opportunities • Map user journeys and product flows • Create wireframes and interactive prototypes • Design polished interfaces in Figma • Review requirements with Product Managers • Collaborate with engineers on implementation details • Review builds and resolve UX/UI inconsistencies • Maintain reusable components and design systems • Conduct usability testing and analyze feedback • Iterate on existing features based on user and product data In short: you turn product ideas and user problems into intuitive, scalable, and polished digital experiences that people can use effortlessly. Key Metrics for Success • Improved usability and task completion rates • Increased user engagement and retention • Design system consistency and adoption • On-time delivery of designs and prototypes • Reduced design-related implementation rework • Successful product and engineering handoffs • Positive user and stakeholder feedback Why This Role Stands Out • Own the complete product design lifecycle • Work directly with product and engineering teams • Solve meaningful UX and workflow challenges • Influence both product experience and design systems • Design across web and mobile environments • High ownersh
