Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Consertus is a global capital program management and advisory firm that leverages digital innovation to redefine how the world gets built. They are seeking a Senior UI/UX Designer to own the experience layer across their digital product suite, focusing on AI-agent-powered features and collaborating closely with engineering teams to ensure design intent is met throughout the development process.
Responsibilities
- Own end-to-end design for Consertus’ digital products, from early research and concept exploration through high-fidelity UI, prototyping, and engineering handoff
- Design the interaction layer for AI-agent-powered features, including conversational interfaces, exception-based workflows, confidence indicators, and trust-building patterns
- Collaborate with a vibe-coding engineering team—our devs build with Claude, Cursor, and other AI-assisted tools, and you’ll need to match their pace, speak their language, and design in a way that translates cleanly into their workflow
- Bring AI-native instincts to your own process—leveraging generative tools, AI-assisted prototyping, and emerging design workflows to move faster and think bigger
- Set and defend the quality bar across multiple product surfaces, ensuring consistency and delight even as we ship fast
- Apply deep product thinking to complex business systems
- Conduct user research to deeply understand the needs, pain points, and workflows of capital program managers, owners’ representatives, and project controls professionals
- Champion the user’s perspective in every conversation—from sprint planning to architectural decisions—and push back when something isn’t good enough
- Collaborate daily with engineering, product, and advisory teams across time zones
- Build and evolve a design system that scales across the product suite while allowing for the flexibility each product surface demands
- 80–85% hands-on design work; the remaining time spent on research, design system stewardship, and cross-functional collaboration
Skills
- 7–10+ years of product design experience, with a portfolio that demonstrates strong taste and end-to-end ownership
- AI-native design fluency — you use AI tools as a core part of your workflow (generative prototyping, AI-assisted research synthesis, LLM-powered design exploration) and can articulate where they help and where human judgment is irreplaceable
- Ability to work alongside AI-assisted developers — our engineering team uses tools like Cursor and Claude to build; you'll need to understand their workflow, communicate design intent with precision, and keep up with their pace without sacrificing quality
- Proven ability to take complex, data-heavy workflows and make them feel simple—and even enjoyable
- Deep product understanding of complex business systems — you can internalize multi-step approval chains, audit trails, cost control hierarchies, and compliance frameworks, and translate that understanding into designs that are smart without being overwhelming
- Experience shipping production software (not just concepts or case studies)
- Strong product thinking: you rethink what an experience should be, not just how it looks
- Track record of defining and defending a quality bar, especially when there's pressure to cut corners
- Proficiency in Figma and modern design tooling
- Experience collaborating closely with engineering teams through implementation
- Bachelor's in design (Interaction Design, HCI, Visual/Communication Design) or equivalent practical experience
- Experience designing AI-powered, AI-agent-driven, or conversational interfaces
- Background in AEC, construction tech, or similar complex B2B domains (financial services, logistics, legal tech, or any domain with multi-step approval workflows and dense data)
- Experience building or scaling design systems
- Motion design and micro-interaction skills
- Front-end fluency—enough to prototype in code, read a pull request, or communicate directly in the language of the codebase
- Startup or early-stage experience where you wore multiple hats and shipped under constraints
- Familiarity with AI-assisted development environments (Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Claude Code)—not as a developer, but as a collaborator who understands how they shape the build process
Benefits
- Comprehensive health coverage (medical, dental, and vision)
- Company-paid life and disability insurance
- Optional benefits like pet insurance, legal, and supplemental health plans
- 401(k) with day-one eligibility, 3% safe harbor, plus up to 2.5% company match
- Generous time off: 10 paid holidays and PTO starting at 15 days, growing up to 25
- Access to Consertus Academy for continuous learning and development
