Job Summary:
We are looking for a creative, strategic, and detail-oriented UX/UI Designer to join our team, with a specialist focus on designing interfaces for LLM-based chat applications and AI-powered chatbots. The ideal candidate will combine deep user experience expertise with a strong grasp of conversational UI patterns, applying structured design thinking — including empathy mapping, ideation, wireframing, and prototyping in Figma — to craft intuitive, engaging, and human-centred AI chat experiences.
Key Responsibilities:
- Gather and evaluate user requirements for LLM-based chat interfaces and AI chatbot products, working in close collaboration with product managers, AI/ML engineers, and conversational designers.
- Illustrate design ideas using storyboards, conversation flows, process flows, and sitemaps, with particular focus on mapping human-AI dialogue journeys and chatbot interaction patterns.
- Design graphic user interface elements for AI chat products, including message bubbles, response cards, prompt suggestion panels, feedback mechanisms, loading states, and multi-turn conversation layouts.
- Create low-fidelity wireframes and high-fidelity UI mock-ups and interactive prototypes in Figma that clearly illustrate how LLM chat applications function, behave, and look across web and mobile platforms.
- Plan and conduct user research and usability testing specifically for conversational AI interfaces, including task analysis, think-aloud sessions, and evaluation of AI response comprehension and trust.
- Create original graphic designs (e.g., images, sketches, and tables).
- Identify and troubleshoot UX problems specific to AI chat interfaces, such as response latency handling, error states, prompt disambiguation, and conversational dead-ends.
- Adhere to style standards on fonts, colours, and images.
- Stay current with the rapidly evolving landscape of AI/LLM products, conversational UI patterns, and emerging best practices for designing human-AI interaction experiences.
Qualifications:
- Proven work experience as a UX/UI Designer or similar role.
- Strong portfolio showcasing design projects, ideally including examples of conversational UI, chatbot interfaces, or AI-powered product design.
- Advanced proficiency in Figma (including components, auto-layout, prototyping, and collaborative design workflows); familiarity with Adobe XD, Sketch, or InVision is a plus.
- Demonstrated ability to produce wireframes at multiple fidelity levels, from rapid paper sketches and low-fidelity digital wireframes through to fully interactive Figma prototypes.
- Excellent communication and collaboration skills.
- Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail.
- Bachelor’s degree in design, Computer Science, or a related field.
Preferred Skills:
- Experience with user research and usability testing for AI or conversational products, including methods such as contextual inquiry, cognitive walkthroughs, and AI-specific evaluation frameworks.
- Familiarity with HTML/CSS and JavaScript for rapid prototyping; exposure to LLM APIs (e.g., OpenAI, Anthropic Claude) to understand AI capabilities and constraints from a design perspective.
- Knowledge of Agile development methodologies.
Design Requirements and Methodologies:
- User-Centered Design (UCD): Apply UCD principles specifically to AI chat products, ensuring LLM responses and interface behaviours align with real user goals, mental models, and expectations of conversational AI systems
- Design Thinking: Apply the full Design Thinking process — Empathise, Define, Ideate, Prototype, and Test — within the context of UX/UI for LLM-based chat products. This includes empathy mapping for AI users, ideation of novel conversational interaction patterns, rapid wireframing in Figma, and iterative testing of chatbot flows to validate design decisions
Preferred Project Experience
- Experience designing AI, chatbot, or conversational interfaces; background in Retail, Consumer Goods, or Utilities sectors is a bonus
- Experience collaborating with cross-functional, multi-geography teams including AI/ML engineers, product managers, and conversational designers in fast-paced Agile environments
