Position Overview: 

We’re looking for a Junior UX/UI Engineer - a hybrid creative technologist who combines strong design skills with a solid technical foundation in front-end development.

In this role you will be working closely with the team to create intuitive experiences for our web-based trading and enterprise platforms. You’ll help bring complex, data rich interfaces to life in Figma and React. Your coding expertise will enable you to collaborate seamlessly with engineers, design with technical constraints in mind, and contribute to front-end development when needed.

This is a fantastic opportunity to develop into a well-rounded UX/UI Engineer - deepening your UX/UI design expertise while building on your technical engineering skills. You’ll gain exposure to the full end‑to‑end product development process, from translating ideas into polished deliverables, iterating based on business feedback and technical constraints, through to QA before release — all within a fast‑moving financial technology environment.

  • 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
