Job Description

We’re looking for a talented and creative UI / UX Designer with technical know-how to join our team on a part-time basis. This role is perfect for a creative professional who can bridge the gap between design and development. You’ll be responsible for creating eye-catching, modern, and beautiful web applications that don’t just look great but provide exceptional user experiences.

The ideal candidate is someone who can take a project from concept to production-ready design artifacts, and ideally has the front-end development skills to implement their own designs.

Responsibilities :

• Design stunning, modern user interfaces for web applications that captivate users and drive engagement.
• Create comprehensive UX designs including user flows, wireframes, prototypes, and interaction designs.
• Develop engaging animations and micro-interactions that bring interfaces to life.
• Design graphic assets including icons, illustrations, and branding elements.
• Produce production-ready design artifacts that developers can implement seamlessly.
• Create and maintain design systems, component libraries, and style guides.
• Collaborate closely with developers to ensure designs are implemented accurately.
• Conduct user research and usability testing to inform design decisions.
• Create responsive designs that work beautifully across all devices and screen sizes.

Technical Environment

You’ll be creating designs for modern web applications built with React, Next.js, and Tailwind CSS. Familiarity with these technologies is a significant advantage.

What We’re Looking For

We want someone who can create web experiences that make people say “wow”, designs that are not only beautiful but intuitive and delightful to use. Someone who obsesses over details, stays ahead of design trends, and can translate business requirements into compelling visual solutions.

We offer competitive compensation, fully remote work, flexible hours, a learning and certification budget, and a supportive, low-ego team that values work–life balance and growth.

Inclusive Hiring

We hire for skill, potential, and values. In South Africa’s diverse context, we welcome applicants from all backgrounds and aim to provide a fair, inclusive process. If you have the skills and drive, we’d love to hear from you.
