The posting

About The Role:

The Senior UI Designer will lead the visual and interaction design of the Lightspeed platform — Citi's mission-critical CI/CD developer platform serving over 10,000 engineers globally. Partnering closely with the Product Owner on UX strategy and product vision, you will translate high-level direction into refined, high-fidelity visual designs, cohesive user journeys, and robust interactive prototypes.

This role thrives on a close, highly collaborative, and agile partnership with Product. We are looking for a designer who embraces rapid ideation, actively engages in creative problem-solving, and iterates swiftly from feedback to deliver polished, production-ready design artifacts.

You will champion and apply Citi's enterprise design system across all workflows, with ample opportunity to actively contribute to its evolution by designing and proposing reusable components, tokens, and scalable design patterns.

Work is orchestrated in Jira leveraging Kanban and agile frameworks. To bring complex interactions to life, you may occasionally build lightweight coded UI prototypes, with full encouragement to leverage modern AI-assisted design and coding workflows. An accessible portfolio (personal website, Behance, Dribbble, or public design profile) showcasing your craft and problem-solving approach is highly valued.

Key Responsibilities

  • Product Partnership & Rapid Iteration: Partner closely with the Product Owner to co-create intuitive product solutions, rapidly exploring concepts and driving prompt, iterative enhancements based on stakeholder and user feedback.
  • End-to-End Design Ownership: Own the end-to-end visual and interaction design lifecycle for Lightspeed features, from initial wireframes and user flows to pixel-perfect, high-fidelity Figma deliverables.
  • Prototyping & Interaction Design: Create rich, multi-state interactive Figma prototypes (and occasional lightweight coded prototypes using AI tools where beneficial) to effectively demonstrate complex interaction behaviors to engineers and product leaders.
  • Design System Stewardship: Identify opportunities to expand Citi's enterprise design system, authoring net-new components, interaction standards, and token architectures.
  • Developer Collaboration & Handoff: Produce comprehensive, clear design specifications and handoff documentation; partner directly with Technical Leads and frontend engineers to ensure high-fidelity implementation.
  • Design Consistency & Quality: Define and maintain consistent design patterns, visual hierarchy, and cohesive UX standards across all developer tooling touchpoints.
  • Feedback & Critique: Lead and participate in design reviews and critiques alongside Product Owners, engineering teams, and end-user communities.
  • Inclusive Design: Apply accessibility standards (WCAG 2.1 AA) proactively at every stage of the design process.
  • AI-Enabled Workflows: Incorporate AI-assisted design tooling into daily workflows for accelerated ideation, asset generation, and rapid prototyping.
  • Agile Delivery: Manage design deliverables transparently in Jira, maintaining clear status visibility and proactively resolving dependencies or blockers.

Required Skills & Qualifications

  • Experience: At least 7 years of professional UI, product, or interaction design experience, with a proven track record in complex enterprise or developer-facing products.
  • Angular Ecosystem Familiarity: Minimum 2 years of design experience partnering with Angular-based applications, demonstrating a solid grasp of Angular component structures and frontend implementation considerations.
  • React Ecosystem Fluency: Significant experience designing for modern React applications and working within component-driven architectures.
  • Advanced Figma Mastery: Expert-level command of Figma, including advanced components, nested variants, auto-layout, design tokens, variables, interactive prototyping, and structured developer handoff workflows.
  • Interactive Prototyping: Demonstrated ability to build sophisticated, multi-state interactive prototypes that convey nuanced workflows and micro-interactions with clarity.
  • Agile Collaboration: Proven ability to operate in a high-velocity, iterative environment with Product Managers, turning conceptual ideas into high-quality visual solutions efficiently.
  • Demonstrated Portfolio: A compelling portfolio showcasing data-dense interfaces, developer tooling, or enterprise-scale platforms (hosted via personal domain, Behance, Dribbble, or equivalent).
  • Design Systems & Token Architecture: Deep understanding of design system governance, component libraries, and token-based theming within enterprise ecosystems.
  • Frontend Literacy: Working knowledge of HTML and CSS to bridge the design-engineering gap and design with technical feasibility in mind.
  • Accessibility (a11y): Practical expertise in applying WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility guidelines to UI components, color contrasts, and focus states.
  • AI Tooling Adoption: Hands-on experience leveraging AI-powered tools for enhanced design productivity and rapid prototyping.
  • Delivery Frameworks: Experience navigating Kanban continuous delivery and agile product team rhythms.
  • Communication: Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to articulate design rationale clearly to cross-functional partners.

Nice to Have (Preferred Qualifications)

  • Experience crafting CI/CD dashboards, DevOps platforms, or cloud infrastructure tooling (familiarity with Tekton, Jenkins, Harness, or TeamCity is a plus).
  • Familiarity with Storybook or similar component documentation and design-to-code platforms.
  • Experience contributing to major enterprise design systems (e.g., Citi, IBM Carbon, Google Material, Atlassian Atlaskit).
  • Background in financial services, fintech, or other regulated enterprise environments.
  • Experience defining motion guidelines, transitions, and micro-interaction specifications.
  • Exposure to sprint-based Scrum frameworks and cross-functional agile rituals.
  • Ability to build functional, lightweight code prototypes (HTML/CSS/JavaScript) independently or with AI assistance.
  • Jira proficiency in managing backlog grooming, Kanban boards, and cross-functional release tracking.

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
