We are hiring a full-time UI/UX Designer to join our product team. This is a high-impact role for someone who wants to design meaningful user experiences, set the tone for design culture, and directly influence the way our products evolve.

As our founding designer, you’ll be shaping how we approach user research, design systems, and product storytelling across mobile, web, and data-rich environments.

What You’ll Do

User-Centered Product Design

  • Conduct user research (interviews, surveys, usability testing) to understand customer needs and pain points.
  • Translate research insights into user journeys, personas, and workflows.
  • Create wireframes, prototypes, and polished UI designs that balance usability, aesthetics, and technical feasibility.
  • Define design patterns and contribute to building a scalable design system.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

  • Work with Product to explore concepts, iterate quickly, and validate solutions before development.
  • Partner with Engineering to ensure designs are implementable, responsive, and consistent across platforms.
  • Support Sales and Marketing by creating product collateral (sales decks, sheets, clickable demos) that communicate value to customers and prospects.

Data Visualization & Complex Interfaces

  • Design intuitive ways to present complex datasets, dashboards, and analytics.
  • Focus on clarity, interactivity, and storytelling in data-heavy contexts.

Leadership & Practice Building

  • Introduce and champion best practices in UI/UX design (design systems, accessibility standards, usability testing frameworks).
  • Educate and guide internal stakeholders on user-centered design principles.
  • Lay the foundation for future designers to join and thrive as the team grows.

RequirementsWhat We’re Looking For
  • 3–6+ years of professional experience as a UI/UX designer (startup or enterprise).
  • Strong portfolio showcasing end-to-end design process: research → wireframes → prototypes → final UI.
  • Proven experience in mobile and responsive web applications.
  • Hands-on experience with data visualization, dashboards, or analytics tools.
  • Proficiency in design tools like Figma, Sketch, Adobe XD, or similar.
  • Excellent communication and facilitation skills — able to bridge product, engineering, and business teams.
  • Comfortable taking initiative, making design decisions, and being the voice of design in the company.
Nice to Have
  • Experience in healthcare, enterprise SaaS, or regulated industries.
  • Familiarity with design systems, accessibility standards (WCAG), and responsive frameworks.
  • Motion design or micro-interactions expertise to enhance user delight.

Benefits
  • Health insurance
  • Business travel when needed
  • 3 weeks of vacation
  • 10 sick days
  • Flexible work hours
  • Hybrid in Toronto or Montreal
