UI/UX Designer

Location: Remote (ET/CT/MT preferred) · Hybrid if NY or South Florida

Working primarily in US time zones and collaborating with a distributed team.

Reports to: VP of Product

Role Overview

We're hiring a UI/UX Designer to sit at the center of how ProphetX is built and experienced. You'll report to the VP of Product and work directly with Engineering, Product, Marketing, and Executive teams on a frequent basis . You'll be expected to drive the conversation, challenge decisions, bring your own ideas to the table, and build the case for design as a strategic function.

Portfolio required. Please include a link or attachment with your application. There will also be a take home design project in the final stages of the interview.

What You'll Own

• End-to-end product design across desktop and mobile, from early-stage concept through polished, production-ready delivery
• User research strategy and execution: personas, competitive analysis, user interviews, usability testing, and synthesis into actionable insight
• Design system ownership: building, evolving, and maintaining a coherent, scalable system across all product surfaces
• Cross-functional partnership: you are in the room when product decisions are made, not handed the outcome after the fact
• AI-augmented design workflow: you treat AI tooling as a natural force multiplier, not a novelty
• Raising the bar: you bring a point of view into every critique, push back when something is not right, and make the work around you better
  

What We’re Looking For

• 5+ years in product design, with a portfolio that demonstrates both systems thinking and exceptional craft
• Deep experience designing complex, data-rich, or transactional products: fintech, sportsbook, prediction markets, or similarly high-stakes environments strongly preferred
• Full double diamond fluency: as comfortable running a research sprint and defining the problem space as you are delivering a pixel-perfect prototype
• Figma mastery: components, variables, auto-layout, and prototyping at a level that moves fast without creating chaos
• Experience with prototyping and usability testing tools, and working familiarity with product analytics to inform and validate design decisions
• A track record of influencing product direction, not just executing it: you have opinions and you know how to make the case for them
• Comfort with ambiguity: you do not need a fully defined brief to do great work, and you can build structure where none exists

Nice to Have

• Experience in prediction markets specifically
• Graphic design background that shows up in the polish and craft of your visual work
• Familiarity with CFTC-regulated or financial services product environment
