About the Role:

We’re seeking a highly versatile UX Designer who can seamlessly support product, marketing, and executive teams. This role is ideal for a designer who enjoys owning a wide range of creative work—from website UX to conference presentations to polished product demos.

You’ll be responsible for shaping how agents experience our tools, how customers engage with our brand, and how our leadership presents our vision. If you thrive in a fast-paced environment and love switching between product design, marketing design, and storytelling, this role will feel like home.

- Ensure consistency across all UX touchpoints, including demos, internal tools, and agent experiences.

Website & Marketing Design

- Lead UX and visual design for the company website, ensuring clarity, usability, and brand alignment.
- Produce marketing materials including landing pages, digital assets, and campaign visuals.
- Support marketing initiatives with design for events, announcements, and promotional content.

Executive & Conference Presentation Design

- Design and refine executive presentation decks, including executive decks for internal and external audiences.
- Create visually compelling materials for conferences—both UX and technical—including slides, signage, and demo visuals.
- Ensure all conference design aligns with product messaging, brand identity, and audience needs.

Demo Experience Design

- Own the UX and visual design for all product demos.
- Develop cohesive demo flows that clearly communicate product value and functionality.
- Collaborate with product and engineering to ensure demo environments reflect real-world use cases.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

- Work closely with product managers, engineers, and marketing leads to understand needs and translate them into thoughtful UX solutions.
- Maintain and evolve design systems and brand guidelines across product and marketing surfaces.
- Manage multiple projects simultaneously while meeting deadlines in a dynamic environment.

Qualifications:

- 3–5+ years of UX or product design experience (contract or full-time).
- Strong portfolio showcasing UX thinking, visual design, and multi-surface work (web, product, presentations).
- Proficiency with modern design tools (Figma preferred).
- Ability to work independently, take initiative, and adapt quickly to shifting priorities.
- Experience designing for both product and marketing teams is a strong plus.
- Excellent communication skills and comfort presenting design decisions to stakeholders.

​​​Compensation: $140,000-$200,000. This represents the typical range for this position based on experience, skills, and other factors.
