SPINE - UX Designer

Client: SPINE

Location: Remote

Contract: Contract

Job Description

We are looking for a UX Designer to help us improve how users experience complex, content-heavy websites and digital products. This role focuses on usability, information architecture, and evidence-based design - not branding or visual styling.

You will work with designers, writers, developers, and clients to make digital experiences easier to understand, navigate, and use.

If you read Nielsen Norman Group, UX Planet, or Smashing Magazine and care more about task success and cognitive load than animations, you’re probably a fit.

Requirements

What We’re Looking For:

• 3+ years of UX, product design, or information architecture experience
• A portfolio showing:
• Wireframes, flows, and IA
• Problem-solving, not just visuals
• How your designs improved usability or performance
• Strong knowledge of:
• Usability principles
• Accessibility (WCAG)
• Content hierarchy and navigation
• Responsive web design
• Experience working on:
• Content-heavy websites
• B2B or complex digital products
• Comfortable working independently on part-time or contract projects

Nice to Have:

• Experience with:
• User testing platforms (Maze, UserTesting, Lookback, etc.)
• Data-driven UX or CRO
• Design systems

Responsibilities

What You’ll Do:

• Create:
• User flows
• Site maps and information architecture
• Wireframes and interactive prototypes (Figma)
• Turn complex business requirements and content into:
• Clear page structures
• Intuitive navigation
• Simple, usable interfaces
• Conduct and apply:
• Usability testing
• Heuristic evaluations
• Accessibility reviews (WCAG)
• Use analytics tools (GA4, Matomo, Hotjar, etc.) to:
• Identify friction and drop-off points
• Measure performance
• Validate design decisions
• Work with developers to ensure designs are practical, buildable, and maintainable.
• Iterate designs based on user feedback and real-world usage.

Why Join Us

We work with companies in technology, energy, finance, and other complex industries that struggle to explain what they do online. You’ll have real influence over how these businesses communicate and how users experience their products.

Flexible hours, remote-friendly, and project-based work available.

Pay: $30.00 - $40.00 per hour
