Job Description: We are seeking a talented UI/UX Interaction Designer who is passionate about crafting elegant, intuitive, and delightful digital experiences. The ideal candidate will bring static designs to life through thoughtful microinteractions, seamless transitions, and dynamic prototypes that enhance usability and brand expression.

You will partner closely with product, engineering, and brand teams to create interaction patterns, prototype user flows, and design motion that improves both experience and functionality. While a strong visual and motion sense is valued, this role primarily focuses on how users move, interact, and feel across our digital products.

If you thrive in fast paced environments designing elegant human-computer interactions, enjoy sweating the details of motion in service of UX, and are excited to prototype the future of modern interfaces, we'd love to meet you.

Responsibilities:

• Design microinteractions, UI transitions, page flows, and feedback states that enhance usability.
• Build high-fidelity interactive prototypes using tools like Figma, Principle, ProtoPie, or similar.
• Translate wireframes and static screens into dynamic, animated interaction experiences.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with product managers, UI/UX designers, engineers, and brand teams.
• Apply motion thoughtfully to guide user attention, reinforce action feedback, and build emotional connection.
• Define and document interactive patterns and behaviors for design systems and developer handoff.
• Push creative boundaries while staying aligned with our evolving brand identity and design standards.
• Create motion studies and prototypes to validate interaction concepts.
• Stay current on UX design patterns, microinteraction trends, and emerging prototyping tools.

Required Qualifications:

• 5+ years of professional experience in UI/UX design with a focus on interaction and motion.
• Deep understanding of UX principles, usability heuristics, and user-centered interaction design.
• Proficiency in prototyping tools (Figma, Framer, Principle, ProtoPie, or similar).
• Experience creating high-fidelity, interactive prototypes that demonstrate behavior, not just visuals
• Strong grasp of motion design principles as they apply to user experience (ease, timing, feedback).
• Strong visual design skills: layout, typography, color theory, component design.???????Experience working in agile or cross-disciplinary product teams.
• Ability to clearly articulate interaction rationale to both technical and non-technical audiences.
• Comfortable preparing prototypes for handoff to developers and guiding implementation quality.
• Familiarity with Lottie/Bodymovin for lightweight UI animation.
• Experience with accessibility best practices for animations and interactions.
