We are currently searching for a UX Designer to complement our team. The ideal candidate will be MSI's internal hands-on UX champion who can own our design system, drive continuous user-research, and act as the daily point-of-contact for the agency. If you’re a driven individual contributor who loves turning insights into elegant, scalable interface patterns - and can win peers over with evidence-backed opinions - this is your playground. 

Key Responsibilities: 

• Own & evolve the MSI Design System.  

• Audit UI across web & mobile products 

• Build, document, and govern a Figma component library mapped to our React/Material-UI codebase 

• Be the internal “client” for our external design agency 

• Translate product briefs into design tickets & feedback cycles 

• Review deliverables for usability, consistency, and feasibility 

• Run lean user-research end-to-end 

• Plan, recruit, moderate, and synthesize usability tests & interviews 

• Share insights that directly inform roadmap priorities 

• Gather continuous internal feedback 

• Facilitate lightweight design reviews with Product Owners, Customer Success, and Execs 

• Champion evidence-based decisions and “show, don’t tell” prototypes 

• Deliver hands-on UX/UI 

• User flows, wireframes, hi-fi comps, interactive prototypes (Figma) 

• Annotated specs & close partnership with engineers 

Requirements: 

• 4+ years’ pragmatic UX/UI experience within SaaS products 

• Expert-level Figma chops; familiarity with Material Design / MUI a plus 

• Proven ability to plan & run usability tests, interviews, surveys, and synthesis solo 

• Comfortable steering external vendors while staying hands-on with your own designs 

• Strong, constructive opinions - backed by data, user empathy, and crisp storytelling 

• Working knowledge of front-end constraints (React, HTML/CSS) to speak dev’s language 

• Self-starter mindset: you create momentum and achieve buy-in with minimal oversight
