Job Description

Lead UX Designer at insightsoftware, focusing on complex workflow design in enterprise SaaS applications. Responsible for driving design quality and evolving the design system.

Responsibilities:

  • Lead heuristic evaluations of the current CEM platform, documenting usability, accessibility, workflow, and consistency issues across core functional domains, and synthesizing findings into actionable design priorities
  • Translate qualitative and quantitative research findings into workflow models, interaction patterns, and validated design directions
  • Help establish, govern, and evolve the CEM design system including branded component variants, interaction patterns, accessibility standards consistently across all design output
  • Collaborate with the UX Manager and Engineering to contribute new components, patterns, and documentation to the design system as new workflows surface design needs not yet covered by existing standards
  • Maintain design file hygiene and Figma library alignment ensuring design work is structured to support clean handoff to Engineering and reduce implementation ambiguity
  • Own end-to-end UX design for high-complexity CEM workflows from initial concept through validated prototype to production-ready specification.
  • Produce interaction models, annotated wireframes, high-fidelity prototypes, and design specifications sufficient for engineering implementation without loss of design intent
  • Lead iterative design reviews with Product, Engineering, and senior stakeholders communicating design rationale clearly and incorporating feedback without compromising user experience quality
  • Operate within a Lean UX model paired closely with engineering through dual-track collaboration: running design discovery ahead of delivery sprints to provide just-in-time designs that are validated before engineering commitment
  • Define and maintain a clear MVP design scope in partnership with Product Management establishing success metrics that enable a ship-and-measure approach for well-understood, lower-risk features
  • Contribute to post-delivery UX evaluation using application analytics to assess adoption, identify friction points, and inform the next design iteration
  • Leverage AI prototyping tools to accelerate design exploration, concept validation, and the generation of design artifacts across the product development lifecycle
  • Partner with the UX Manager to establish design delivery processes, file organization standards, handoff conventions, and quality gates that support consistent, high-quality output as the team scales
  • Contribute to the CEM design repository maintaining organized Figma libraries, component documentation, and reusable pattern documentation that reduces redundant design work across the team

Requirements:

  • 8+ years of UX design experience, with progressive responsibility leading complex workflow design across enterprise SaaS applications
  • Demonstrated experience owning or making major contributions to a design system in a production SaaS environment.
  • Proven ability to produce high-fidelity interaction designs and prototypes for dense, data-intensive enterprise applications with a portfolio demonstrating mastery of information hierarchy, workflow efficiency, and accessibility in dense, data-intensive enterprise UI contexts
  • Experience in a Lean UX or dual-track agile delivery model, validating with users iteratively, and delivering just-in-time specifications
  • Strong cross-functional collaboration skills with Product Management and Engineering, including contributing to discovery, shaping requirements, and communicating design rationale to non-design audiences
  • Bachelor's degree in Interaction Design, Human-Computer Interaction, Graphic Design, Information Science, or a related field required; equivalent professional experience considered
