Role Overview

Shae Group is seeking a world-class Senior Product UI/UX Designer to lead the end-to-end design strategy for our white-label, medically and education-focused app ecosystem.

This role blends UX strategy, elite visual craft, and practical execution. You will audit existing designs, define a scalable white-label design system, and elevate the user experience so it is intuitive, beautiful, and clearly communicates value from the first interaction.

This is not a “screen mover” role. We’re looking for a designer who thinks in systems, layers, and journeys—and who can simplify complexity into experiences users instantly understand and love.

Key Objectives (First 4–6 Weeks)

• Audit existing UI, UX flows, and planned designs
• Define the overall UX strategy across products
• Build a white-label-ready design system in Figma
• Establish scalable visual, interaction, and UX standards
• Provide clear creative direction to the internal design team

Core Responsibilities

1. UX Strategy & Product Thinking

• Lead top-to-bottom UX strategy across the ecosystem
• Simplify user journeys and remove unnecessary screens
• Translate complex AI-driven functionality into intuitive experiences
• Design flows that clearly communicate value, not just functionality

2. White-Label Design System (Non-Negotiable)

• Design and document a scalable white-label design system
• Use centralized variables and tokens to avoid redundancy
• Define what is customizable vs fixed across brands
• Enable fast brand changes via a small number of “design dials”
• Prior experience designing white-label applications is mandatory.

3. Elite Visual & Interaction Design

• Create refined, premium UI with exceptional attention to detail
• Apply glassmorphism, depth, opacity, blur, gradients, and shading intentionally
• Design subtle micro-interactions and motion concepts
• Maintain a luxury baseline aesthetic that scales across brands

4. User Experience That Explains Value

• Design UX that helps users understand why the product works
• Present insights, AI outcomes, and science in clear, trust-building ways
• Propose innovative onboarding approaches (interactive flows, video, audio, prompts)
• Ensure users feel confident and empowered, not confused

5. Cross-Platform Design Excellence

• Deliver consistent experiences across:
• Mobile
• Tablet
• Desktop
• Web

• Ensure responsiveness, accessibility, and parity across devices

6. Team Leadership & Communication

• Provide daily guidance to the internal design team
• Communicate via Figma, screen recordings, and voice notes
• Clearly explain design decisions and trade-offs
• Collaborate closely with product, engineering, and leadership

Closing note
We seek an A-player who raises the bar for product UI/UX in health technology. We will move quickly for outstanding candidates.

Requirements:
Required Skills & Experience (Must-Have)

• Proven white-label product design experience (non-negotiable)
• Portfolio showing world-class UI/UX across mobile, tablet, and desktop
• Expert-level Figma skills (design systems, variables, tokens, components)
• Strong visual craft and attention to layered detail
• Excellent UX judgment and system-level thinking
• Experience with gamification, engagement loops, or feedback systems
• Fluent, professional English communication (written & spoken)
• Comfortable working with globally distributed teams
• Open-minded, collaborative, and low-ego

Nice-to-Have

• Health, behavioral health, education, or medically inclined product experience
• Motion design or Lottie animation experience
• Experience partnering closely with engineering on scalable systems

Tools & Working Style

• Figma only (mandatory)
• Occasional Google Docs for documentation
• Most work delivered visually and systemically in Figma

What Success Looks Like

• A clean, scalable white-label design system
• Fewer screens, clearer flows, stronger UX clarity
• A premium, memorable UI users instantly trust
• Internal designers confidently executing within your system

Benefits:
Compensation & performance bonuses

• USD $2,500 fixed short-term contract (project-based). Bonus for rapid delivery.
• Additional engagements negotiable on successful delivery.
