Hire UI Designers Who Build Interfaces That Work

Great UI design is invisible. Users don’t notice a well-designed interface — they just accomplish their goals without friction. The UI designers who can build a design system that scales across 200 screens without inconsistency, who understand the relationship between visual hierarchy and user attention, and who deliver Figma files that engineers can implement without a 3-hour handoff meeting — those designers are the ones who ship products that users love.

We match you with senior UI Designers who’ve shipped web applications, mobile apps, and games — designers who understand visual design craft, design systems thinking, and the implementation discipline that makes designs actually buildable.

Start in days, not months. Pay 50% less than equivalent US-based UI design talent.

What Our UI Designers Produce

Interface Design

Screen design, component design, state design (default, hover, active, disabled, error, loading), and the visual design work that makes interfaces clear, consistent, and aesthetically appropriate for their context. UI design that serves user goals rather than designer aesthetics.

Design Systems & Component Libraries

Design token systems, component libraries, pattern documentation, and the systematic design work that enables consistent UI across large products and multiple teams. Design systems that scale — not just a Figma file with some components.

Mobile UI Design

iOS and Android UI design following platform conventions (Human Interface Guidelines, Material Design 3), adaptive layouts, touch target sizing, and the mobile-specific design discipline that makes apps feel native rather than ported.

Responsive Web UI

Responsive layout systems, breakpoint design, and the web UI design discipline that produces interfaces that work across desktop, tablet, and mobile without requiring separate designs for each.

UI Design Technology Stack

Design: Figma, Sketch, Adobe XD — UI design and component library creation

Prototyping: Figma Interactive Prototypes, ProtoPie, Principle — interactive prototyping for usability testing

Handoff: Figma Dev Mode, Zeplin — developer handoff with accurate specs

Design Systems: Figma Variables, design tokens, Storybook integration

Client Success Story: SaaS Platform — Design System That Reduced Engineering Time 40%

A B2B SaaS company had 8 engineers building UI across 3 product teams — and each team had developed its own component patterns. The result: 3 different button styles, 4 different form input designs, and a product that looked like it was built by 3 different companies. Our UI Designer built a unified design system: 45 base components with all states documented, a design token system covering color, typography, spacing, and elevation, and a Figma library that engineers could reference for exact implementation specs. Engineering time spent on UI decisions: reduced 40%. New feature UI implementation time: reduced 35% because engineers were assembling components rather than designing from scratch.

Client Success Story: Mobile App — UI Redesign That Increased App Store Rating from 3.1 to 4.6

A consumer mobile app had a 3.1 App Store rating with “confusing interface” cited in 60% of negative reviews. Our UI Designer conducted a UI audit: identified 23 inconsistencies in the existing design (different button styles, inconsistent spacing, unclear visual hierarchy), redesigned the 8 highest-traffic screens with a consistent visual language, and delivered a component library that prevented future inconsistency. App Store rating: increased from 3.1 to 4.6 within 3 months of the redesign launch. “Confusing interface” mentions in reviews: dropped from 60% to 8%.

Why Companies Choose Our UI Designers

• Design systems thinking: They build systems that scale — not just beautiful individual screens
• Implementation discipline: Figma files that engineers can implement without extensive clarification
• Visual craft: Interfaces that are aesthetically appropriate for their context and audience
• 50% cost savings: Senior UI design expertise at a fraction of US market rates
• Fast start: Most engagements begin within 1–2 weeks

Engagement Models

• Individual UI Designer — One senior designer for interface design, design system creation, or component library work.
• Design Teams (2–3 designers) — For full product UI coverage across multiple features or platforms.
• Contract-to-Hire — Evaluate design quality, systems thinking, and team fit before committing long-term.
• Project-Based — Defined design scope: design system, screen redesign, or component library.

How To Vet UI Designers

Our vetting identifies designers who build interfaces that work — not just designers who produce beautiful mockups.

1. Portfolio review — Shipped product credits with in-production screenshots. We look for visual quality, consistency, and evidence of design systems thinking. Over 80% of applicants do not pass this stage.
2. Design systems assessment — Can they describe the design system they’d build for a new product? Token structure, component hierarchy, and documentation standards — designers who can’t articulate their systems approach produce inconsistent UI at scale.
3. Figma file quality check — Are their Figma files organized, named consistently, and structured for developer handoff? File quality is a direct indicator of implementation discipline.
4. Implementation awareness — Do they understand CSS layout models, component state requirements, and the implementation constraints that affect design decisions?

What to Look for When Hiring UI Designers

Strong UI designers build systems — they don’t just design beautiful individual screens.

What strong candidates demonstrate:

• Portfolio shows design systems and component libraries alongside finished screen designs
• Figma files are organized, consistently named, and structured for developer handoff
• They discuss implementation constraints proactively — they know what’s buildable
• They can articulate the visual hierarchy decisions in their designs

Red flags to watch for:

• Portfolio is entirely personal projects with no shipped product credits
• Beautiful mockups with no evidence of design systems thinking
• Figma files that are disorganized or missing component states
• No awareness of implementation constraints — designs that would require significant engineering effort to build

Interview questions that reveal real depth:

• “Walk me through a design system you built. What was the token structure, how did you organize components, and how did you ensure adoption across the engineering team?”
• “How do you approach designing a component that needs to work across 5 different contexts? What decisions do you make about flexibility vs. consistency?”
• “Describe a situation where an engineering constraint required you to change a design decision. How did you adapt?”
