  • Collaborate with engineering and product teams to deliver feasible, scalable solutions
  • Build and test interactive prototypes using Figma and/or code
  • Advocate for user-centered design principles and contribute to research and usability testing

What We’re Looking For

  • Experience in both UX design and front-end development
  • Proficient with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and modern frameworks (React, Vue, etc.)
  • Familiarity with Figma and design system documentation
  • Solid understanding of accessibility standards and UI performance optimization
  • Experience working in cross-functional teams with product and engineering
  • Strong problem-solving skills and a user-first mindset

Bonus Points

  • Experience with AI-driven tools (e.g., Copilot, Cursor, Lovable)
  • Familiarity with design tokens and system automation
  • Experience with the MUI component library and Storybook
  • Knowledge of animation and micro-interactions in UI design

  • Fully paid health insurance (employee + dependents)
  • Life assurance
  • Wellness perks
  • Flexible workplace: remote, hybrid, or office-based options

Work Location
While this is a remote-friendly role, you're welcome to work from our Dublin office in the CHQ Building—just two minutes from Connolly Station and close to major transport links, shops, and cafes.
