• Assist with design handoff to developers, keeping files tidy, clear, and easy to implement.
• Collaborate with designers, developers, and product teammates in a supportive environment.

Requirements:

• Up to 2 years of experience as a UX/UI, Product, or Digital Designer.
• Comfortable working in Figma, especially with Auto Layouts and components.
• Basic understanding of UX principles and visual design fundamentals.
• Familiarity with design systems or experience working within one.
• Willingness to learn, ask questions, and grow as a designer.
