  • Contribute to frontend codebase in React, translating designs into production ready code
  • Partner with developers, product managers, analysts, and trading teams to refine designs and solve user problems
  • Apply UX principles while balancing technical feasibility, accessibility, performance, and delivery timelines
  • Contribute to and help maintain our design system components
  • Conduct QA testing on implemented designs to ensure they meet functional, visual, and usability requirements

Required Qualifications:

  • Bachelor’s degree in design, Computer Science, HCI, or related field
  • Working experience in Figma, with a portfolio showcasing process of designing and implementing web applications
  • Working experience in React, understanding of web development technologies (JavaScript/TypeScript, HTML, CSS)
  • Familiarity with accessibility, usability and best UX practices
  • Strong collaboration and communication skills
  • Ability to manage tasks independently and handle multiple projects

Why Join Us

  • Direct mentorship from a UX/UI Designer with a hybrid Design + Engineering background
  • Build expertise in both interface design and front‑end engineering
  • Work on high impact applications used in a global trading environment
  • Join a collaborative, technology driven organization with career flexibility
