Remote

We are sharing a specialised part-time consulting opportunity for UK-based UX/UI product designers with experience delivering complex digital products and collaborating closely with web engineering teams.

This role supports a research initiative focused on creating, reviewing, and evaluating high-quality digital product design scenarios. Selected professionals will apply practical experience across user journeys, interface systems, responsive web design, technical constraints, and design-to-engineering handoff for functional web products.

Key Responsibilities

End-to-End Product Design

• Create and evaluate UX/UI scenarios for complex web-based products
• Design user journeys, product flows, wireframes, interfaces, and interactive experiences
• Assess whether proposed solutions support usability, clarity, accessibility, and commercial objectives
• Apply practical judgment across discovery, concept development, prototyping, validation, and delivery

Complex Web Product Evaluation

• Review experiences involving e-commerce, marketplaces, booking systems, onboarding, checkout, and account management
• Evaluate logged-in customer portals, self-service platforms, dashboards, and internal operational tools
• Identify gaps in navigation, information architecture, interaction design, and task completion
• Compare alternative design approaches and explain which solution performs more effectively

Design Systems & Interface Quality

• Evaluate component-based design systems, reusable patterns, and interface consistency
• Review typography, spacing, hierarchy, responsive behaviour, states, and visual polish
• Assess whether components scale effectively across screens, products, and user scenarios
• Identify inconsistencies that may affect usability, implementation, or product quality

Design-to-Engineering Collaboration

• Translate design intent into clear specifications and implementation-ready documentation
• Evaluate front-end constraints, responsive layouts, component behaviour, and web implementation trade-offs
• Collaborate effectively with product managers, engineers, researchers, and data teams
• Provide clear written feedback grounded in both design quality and technical feasibility

Ideal Profile

Strong candidates may have:

• Significant professional experience in UX/UI or digital product design
• Experience delivering end-to-end functional web products rather than brand-only or marketing-site work
• A strong portfolio demonstrating complex user flows, interface systems, and product outcomes
• Experience designing e-commerce platforms, marketplaces, portals, booking systems, onboarding journeys, or operational dashboards
• Strong understanding of responsive design, front-end constraints, and component-based development
• Experience working closely with product managers and engineering teams
• Excellent written communication and the ability to justify design decisions clearly
• Current residence in the United Kingdom with the right to work in the UK

Educational Background

• A degree in product design, interaction design, user experience, human-computer interaction, visual communication, or a related discipline is helpful
• Formal training in interface design, user research, information architecture, or digital product development is highly relevant
• Equivalent professional experience supported by a strong portfolio may also be considered
• Technical education or hands-on exposure to front-end web development may be especially valuable

Nice to Have

• Experience at a recognised digital product studio, UX consultancy, technology company, or product engineering agency
• Background in e-commerce, marketplaces, SaaS, fintech, travel, retail, or customer-service platforms
• Experience designing internal tools, admin panels, or operations dashboards
• Strong knowledge of design systems and reusable component libraries
• Familiarity with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, or modern front-end frameworks
• Experience working with analytics, experimentation, usability testing, or product performance data
• Previous involvement in structured design evaluation, research programmes, or AI-assisted product workflows

Why This Opportunity

• Apply senior product design expertise to advanced research and evaluation work
• Review realistic scenarios grounded in modern digital product development
• Work across UX, UI, product flows, technical constraints, and implementation quality
• Collaborate with experienced professionals across design, product, and engineering
• Participate in flexible remote work with highly competitive hourly compensation

Contract Details

• Independent contractor role
• Fully remote with flexible scheduling
• Candidates must be based in the United Kingdom
• Applicants must have the right to work in the United Kingdom
• Competitive rates between $145–$195 per hour depending on expertise and project scope
