Role Overview & Context

We are seeking a Lead UX Designer to drive the end-to-end UI and UX delivery for a large-scale digital transformation programme. The role is based in Calgary, Toronto, or Winnipeg and works in close partnership with the UX Architect, product owners, and engineering teams to ship high-quality, production-ready experiences. The current programme is being delivered for an enterprise client in the logistics and transportation space.

The Lead UX Designer owns the craft - translating the experience vision, journey maps, and architectural frameworks into pixel-perfect, production-ready designs. The successful candidate will be a strong individual contributor who also leads a small pod of designers, ensuring consistent, high-quality UI and UX output across onboarding journeys, operational dashboards, and data-rich product experiences.

  1. Key Responsibilities
  • Own the day-to-day UI and UX design delivery for assigned modules within the programme
  • Translate UX strategy, wireframes, and journey maps from the UX Architect into detailed, high-fidelity, production-ready designs in Figma
  • Design intuitive screens and interaction flows for complex onboarding journeys, operational dashboards, and data-heavy experiences
  • Conduct design reviews, usability walkthroughs, and iterate based on stakeholder feedback and user testing inputs
  • Ensure all design outputs adhere to WCAG accessibility standards, usability heuristics, and the established design system
  • Collaborate with product owners and business analysts to refine requirements and resolve design ambiguities during execution
  1. Skills, Experience & Profile

Required Experience & Skills:

  • 6-7+ years of hands-on UX/UI design experience, with a strong portfolio of shipped enterprise or B2B products
  • Demonstrated experience leading design delivery for complex, data-heavy digital platforms
  • Expert-level proficiency in Figma - components, auto-layout, variants, design tokens, prototyping, and library management
  • Strong UI craft - typography, layout, visual hierarchy, interaction patterns, and motion
  • Proven ability to design intuitive screens for complex workflows onboarding flows, form-heavy experiences, and dashboards with dense data
  • Experience working within and contributing to design systems at scale
  • Solid understanding of responsive and adaptive design principles across web and tablet form factors
  • Strong working knowledge of accessibility standards (WCAG), usability heuristics, and inclusive design practices
  • Experience collaborating with developers and managing design handoff, QA, and post-release iteration
  • Ability to lead and mentor a small design pod while remaining hands-on in execution

Nice to Have:

  • Exposure to logistics, transportation, rail, or supply-chain platforms
  • Familiarity with AI-assisted design tooling and AI-driven product experiences

Personal Attributes:

  • Execution-first mindset - takes ownership of delivery quality and pace
  • Strong eye for detail with a high bar for craft and consistency
  • Collaborative team player who thrives in cross-functional delivery teams
  • Clear communicator who can articulate design decisions to peers, engineers, and product stakeholders
  • Comfortable operating in a fast-paced, onsite client environment
