In this role, you'll take ownership of complex, ambiguous problems end-to-end, help shape our mobile design strategy, and partner with cross-functional teams and leadership to design intuitive, user-centered experiences that solve real problems. You should bring deep expertise in mobile UI/UX principles, strong instincts for ambiguity, and the judgment to set direction rather than just execute against it. You're someone who can turn a loosely defined problem into a clear point of view, then rally a team—including other designers—around it. ## RESPONSIBILITIES - Own the end-to-end design process for complex, high-impact mobile initiatives, from problem framing through shipped experience. - Set design direction and strategy for the mobile platform, partnering with product and engineering leadership on roadmap and prioritization. - Mentor other designers on the team, providing feedback and helping raise the bar for craft, process, and rigor. - Actively participate in design critiques and reviews at a high level, modeling best practices for the broader design team. - Collaborate closely with product managers, developers, and fellow designers to align design work with business goals and technical feasibility. - Embed with agile teams to deliver user experiences that are both beautiful and functional. - Create wireframes, prototypes, and high-fidelity designs to communicate ideas and iterate quickly. - Design seamless mobile (and web) experiences, ensuring consistency across platforms. - Engage with users to understand needs, gather feedback, and validate design decisions. - Plan and conduct user research, turning insights into actionable design outcomes. - Partner with product management to shape requirements and translate ambiguous problems into compelling, user-centric designs. - Collaborate with developers to test and validate that implemented features match design specifications and meet quality standards across iOS and Android platforms. - Contribute at a high level to our design system's consistency, scalability, and speed—including setting standards other designers build on. - Stay current on design trends, tools, accessibility guidelines, and other best practices, and help the team adopt AI to increase overall efficiency and quality. ## REQUIREMENTS - 5–7+ years of experience in product design or UX/UI roles, with a track record of increasing scope and ownership. - Strong portfolio showcasing end-to-end mobile-first design work, including at least one example of leading a project from ambiguity to shipped, measurable outcomes. - Demonstrated experience mentoring or leading other designers, formally or informally. - Proficiency in Figma and modern prototyping tools, with fluency in AI-assisted design and dev workflows (e.g., Claude, GitHub Copilot, Git/GitHub, VS Code, Xcode, Android Studio). - Deep understanding of user research methods, with experience designing and running research independently—not just applying others' findings. - Experience designing responsive interfaces across multiple devices and platforms. - Strong UX writing and communication skills, including comfort presenting design rationale to leadership and cross-functional stakeholders. - Familiarity with native mobile UI frameworks (SwiftUI, Jetpack Compose). - Familiarity with iOS (Human Interface Guidelines) and Android (Material Design). ## NICE TO HAVE - Experience contributing to or scaling a mobile design system across multiple platforms. - Familiarity with designing AI-based experiences, including agentic workflows. - Comfort using command-line tools and terminal basics. - Awareness of mobile app development processes and constraints. - Experience designing for GIS/map-centric platforms. - Prior experience with audio, photo, or AR-driven UI/UX patterns—interfaces that go beyond the mobile screen. - Experience influencing product strategy or roadmap decisions as a design partner, not just an executor. - Basic understanding of front-end technologies (HTML/CSS/JS). ## SOFT SKILLS - Empathetic and user-driven; you design with people, not just pixels, in mind. - Self-directed and comfortable setting your own priorities under ambiguity. - Highly detail-oriented, with an eye for visual consistency and polish. - Open to feedback and eager to grow—comfortable iterating quickly. - Strong communicator who can explain design rationale clearly and concisely, including to leadership. - Comfortable with candor—we value honest, constructive conversations. - Assertive in your ideas but collaborative in your approach. - A generous mentor—invested in raising the level of the whole design team, not just your own output. ## OTHER - Ability to work effectively across multiple remote, cross-functional teams. - Portfolio and case studies demonstrating your design process and the scope/impact of your ownership. - English proficiency: B2–C1 level. ## About DevSavant Inc. ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: DevSavant is a nearshore talent and product engineering partner that connects top LATAM and Asian professionals with US-based B2B tech and AI companies, helping startups turn ideas into revenue-driving software. - **Entity Type**: Private (privately held;
