Product Designer
Full-timeJohannesburg (hybrid)Design
You will take client products from discovery workshop to shipped interface: research, flows, high-fidelity design, and the design-system work that keeps it consistent. You will work in Figma daily and with engineers hourly.
What you will do
- Run discovery activities: user interviews, journey mapping, and usability tests on prototypes
- Design end-to-end flows and high-fidelity screens for web and mobile products
- Build and maintain Figma component libraries wired to each project's design tokens
- Check contrast, focus states, and keyboard behaviour before every handoff
- Pair with engineers during build to resolve edge cases the mocks did not cover
- Present design decisions to clients and defend them with evidence, not taste
What you bring
- 4+ years designing shipped web or mobile products, with a portfolio that shows process, not just final screens
- Strong Figma skills: auto layout, variables, and component variants are daily tools
- Hands-on experience running usability tests and turning findings into design changes
- Working knowledge of WCAG 2.1 AA and how to design for it from the start
- Experience working directly with engineers in an agile delivery cycle
- Able to explain a design decision to a non-designer in two sentences
Nice to have
- Basic HTML/CSS literacy, enough to know what is cheap and what is expensive to build
- Experience designing data-dense B2B interfaces: tables, dashboards, admin tools
- Motion design or prototyping beyond click-throughs
The process
Portfolio review, one technical conversation about work you have shipped, and a session with the pod you would join. About two weeks end to end, and every application gets a human reply.
