ux/ui designer for an AI-native financial platform

EPAM Design Studio is building an AI-native product end-to-end for a global financial-services client. The product aims to make complex decisions clear, transparent, and human-centered.

• Design and refine end-to-end product experiences from concept to production-ready UI as part of a global design team
• Build, evolve, and govern a Figma design system, including tokens, components, variants, and documentation, and keep it aligned with its coded counterpart in the repository and Storybook
• Connect Figma and the repository using AI and LLMs so design decisions flow reliably into code
• Structure AI context in the repository, including Markdown-based guidance files and component routing and linkage, so AI output follows design principles, standards, accessibility requirements, and front-end conventions
• Define where AI performs design work and where human review and hands-on craft are required, and establish quality gates
• Work within an AI-native SDLC alongside engineers, product owners, and QA; contribute to agile ceremonies where needed and shared definitions of done
• Present design rationale to client stakeholders, gather feedback, and iterate quickly
• Prototype flows and interactions to test ideas with users and stakeholders
• Share learnings across the team and help improve AI-enabled design workflows

• 5+ Years of UX/UI or product design experience at senior or lead level
• A portfolio demonstrating complex product work and hands-on design-system contributions
• Proven experience building and scaling Figma design systems, including variables and tokens, component architecture, documentation, and governance
• Solid understanding of design systems in repositories, including tokens, components, and versioning, and hands-on Storybook experience
• Hands-on experience connecting AI/LLMs to Figma and codebases, including building routers, prompts, or Markdown-based guidance to keep AI output consistent with design systems
• Strong command of design principles and accessibility standards, including WCAG 2.2
• Web-coding knowledge sufficient to work fluently with engineers, including HTML, CSS, and component-based frameworks
• A clear, evidence-based perspective on what AI does best in design and where human intervention remains essential
• Proven experience working with development teams across the SDLC; AI-native SDLC experience is preferred
• Comfortable working in cross-functional, distributed teams across design, engineering, product, and QA, including with US-based colleagues
• Able to own a workstream, make decisions under ambiguity, and deliver in a fast-paced environment
• Expert-level written and spoken English, with the ability to articulate complex ideas, design rationale, and strategic thinking
• Будет плюсом: financial-services domain knowledge, including investment, wealth management, or fintech products; design-token pipeline experience, such as Tokens Studio or Style Dictionary; hands-on use of AI-assisted coding tools, such as Cursor, Windsurf, or Claude Code, or prototyping in code; client-facing consulting experience

• The position requires 5 days of on-site office engagement
