UpTop is seeking an experienced Product Designer to join one of our client’s cross-functional product teams on a long-term, embedded basis. This is an opportunity to shape impactful digital experiences alongside a dedicated team that includes product managers, UX designers, a research manager, and software engineers.

As a partner designer through UpTop, you’ll apply a human-centered, data-informed approach to drive clarity, alignment, and quality within an agile product development environment. You’ll collaborate closely with both client stakeholders and the UpTop team to bring thoughtful, well-crafted solutions to life.

You’re Smart, Hungry, Humble, and Curious—someone who takes initiative, communicates clearly, and thrives in collaborative, fast-paced environments. You care deeply about the people you design for and the teams you design with.

What You'll Do:

  • Collaborate within a cross-functional client team (Product Management, Research, UX, and Development) to design and deliver high-quality product experiences.
  • Balance user needs, business objectives, and technical constraints throughout the design process.
  • Translate research insights into user flows, interaction models, and intuitive interface designs.
  • Create mid- to high-fidelity designs and interactive prototypes using Figma. Leverage and evolve design systems to ensure visual and functional consistency across products.
  • Work with the dedicated Research Manager to plan, observe, and synthesize usability studies and user feedback.
  • Deliver detailed design specifications and collaborate with developers during implementation.
  • Present design rationale clearly to stakeholders, fostering alignment and shared understanding.
  • Contribute to a culture of continuous improvement, curiosity, and collaboration within the team.

What We’re Looking For 

  • Independent contractor or freelancer with excellent communication and client partnership skills.
  • 5+ years of experience in product design (UX/UI) for web and mobile applications.
  • Strong proficiency in user-centered design principles, design systems, and iterative design workflows.
  • Demonstrated ability to work in agile or lean product environments, ideally within cross-functional teams.
  • Strong visual design fundamentals (layout, typography, color) and attention to detail.
  • Comfortable engaging with user research and data to inform design decisions.
  • Self-directed with strong collaboration skills—able to contribute confidently while supporting shared goals.
  • Experience in agency, consultancy, or embedded client roles preferred.

Requirements:

  • This is a 40hr/wk contract opportunity, not a full-time employment position.
  • Work is fully remote (U.S.-based only); Seattle-based residents a plus
  • You must be authorized to work in the U.S. We cannot sponsor or assume sponsorship of employment visas
  • Experience working remotely with distributed teams.
  • 5+ years of experience in UX/UI or Product Design roles.
  • Strong portfolio demonstrating end-to-end design process and outcomes.
  • Proficiency in Figma
We pride ourselves as having a relaxed, fun and rewarding work environment. If you are passionate about all things technology and crave making an impact on a daily basis, please send your resume along with any compensation requirements to jobs@uptopcorp.com
