About the RoleAt Pavago, one of our clients is hiring a Product Designer (UX/UI) to own the end-to-end product design experience across web and mobile applications.

This is not a purely visual design role. We’re looking for someone who combines UX research, product thinking, UI design, prototyping, and design systems to solve real user problems and create intuitive, scalable digital products.

You’ll work closely with Product Managers and Engineers throughout the product lifecycle — from understanding user needs and mapping workflows to designing polished interfaces, maintaining design systems, and supporting implementation.

If you think in user journeys, flows, systems, and outcomes — not just individual screens — this role is a strong fit.

• Analyze user behavior and identify friction across the product experience.

• Translate research into:

• User flows

• Journey maps

• Personas

• Wireframes

• Interaction models

• Use qualitative and quantitative insights to recommend product improvements.

• Work with analytics tools such as Mixpanel, Amplitude, or similar platforms to support design decisions.

• Create:

• User flows

• Wireframes

• Interactive prototypes

• High-fidelity UI

• Design intuitive experiences across web and mobile applications.

• Build and maintain scalable design systems and reusable component libraries.

• Establish and document standards for:

• Typography

• Color

• Spacing

• Components

• Interaction patterns

• UI behavior

• Maintain consistency across products, features, and platforms.

• Improve collaboration and efficiency between Product, Design, and Engineering.

Accessibility & Usability

• Design accessible experiences aligned with WCAG 2.1 principles.

• Consider accessibility throughout the design process rather than as a final-stage requirement.

• Ensure interfaces work effectively across devices, browsers, and screen sizes.

• Identify usability issues and continuously reduce friction across key workflows.

Testing, Analytics & Optimization

• Conduct usability testing to validate design decisions.

• Support A/B testing across:

• User flows

• Features

• Interaction patterns

• Analyze user behavior and product feedback.

• Engagement

• Retention

• Developers

• Other product and business stakeholders

You will:

• Translate product requirements into clear design solutions.

• Participate in product discussions and feature planning.

• Communicate design decisions and rationale clearly.

• Review implementations and help resolve UX/UI inconsistencies before release.
