Senior User Experience Designer

About the Role

StockIQ Technologies builds supply chain planning software for distributors, wholesalers, and manufacturers. Our platform handles the parts of inventory management that spreadsheets and legacy ERPs can’t: demand forecasting, multi-echelon inventory optimization, supplier performance, promotion planning, and S&OP. Our customers run their businesses on StockIQ, and a single bad screen or confusing default can mean a stockout, a blown budget, or a lost weekend for a planner. We are a small, profitable team with a disproportionate footprint in our industry, and we are investing heavily in AI-native workflows, a modern component library, and a refreshed brand.

We’re hiring a Senior UX Designer to close the gap between how our product is designed and how it’s built. You will own the design system end-to-end, from tokens and components in Figma, to the shipped React components our engineers consume, to the brand expression that wraps around them. You will design AI-forward workflows that help supply chain planners make faster, better decisions inside one of the most configurable B2B products on the market. You will be our senior design voice, partnering directly with product, engineering, and leadership, and your work will show up everywhere from the planner’s daily dashboard to the sales team’s next demo.

What You’ll Own

•    Own the StockIQ design system end-to-end: Figma library, tokens, patterns, and the React component library engineers consume, kept in lockstep with code

•    Design AI-forward experiences: forecasts that explain themselves, recommendations users can accept or override in one click, and agents that draft the boring work so planners can focus on judgment

•    Set the bar for how AI shows up across the product: prototype patterns, write the guidelines, and ship the reference implementations

•    Tame complex, configurable surfaces using progressive disclosure, smart defaults, and patterns that scale across hundreds of settings, multi-step workflows, and role-based behavior

•    Lead a refresh of the StockIQ brand guide: typography, color, voice, iconography, and marketing-to-product consistency

•    Make the brand system live beyond a PDF and show up consistently in-app; marketing owns campaigns and collateral and will use your guide as the source of truth

•    Run customer research, usability testing, and planner interviews directly with supply chain users

•    Run the design craft on the team: prototyping, design reviews, and critique — raising the floor and the ceiling of design quality

Required Qualifications

•    6+ years of product design experience, with most of it in B2B SaaS shipping to real customers

•    Portfolio of complex, configurable systems — admin consoles, planning tools, analytics platforms, data-heavy workflows, or operational software (not primarily marketing sites or consumer apps)

•    Demonstrated ownership of a design system that shipped: tokens, theming, component API design, documentation, and contribution models

•    Hands-on experience inside a code component library (Storybook, shadcn/ui, MUI, Radix, or similar); able to read and write enough React to file a meaningful PR

•    Built a brand guide before — not just followed one — with a clear rollout and tangible changes that came out of it

•    Daily use of modern AI tools in your own workflow (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, v0, Figma Make, Midjourney, or similar) with real opinions about what good AI UX looks like versus hype

•    Shipped or prototyped AI features in a product, and treat AI as a design material rather than a feature to bolt on

•    Expert-level Figma; comfortable prototyping in code or AI tools when it’s faster than static mocks

•    Strong communicator: can defend a design decision to an engineer, explain a tradeoff to a CEO, and interview a supply chain planner without making them feel stupid

Nice to Have

•    Experience with supply chain, ERP, WMS, or operational B2B domains where the user is a power user and the stakes are real money

•    Background in data visualization, dense tables, or planner-style UI

•    Prior experience leading a brand refresh or rebrand end-to-end

•    Prior remote experience

Successful Candidates

•    Are AI power users already and have a clear point of view on what good AI UX looks like versus what’s hype

•    Are a self-starter with strong written communication and a bias for shipping

•    Can manage different priorities and partner directly with engineering, product, and leadership

•    Can communicate clearly with engineering, product, sales, and customers — and can defend a design decision without losing the point

•    Love what you do, know that nothing is perfect, and strive for the highest standards of craft

Location & Logistics

•    Remote — US residents only, across US time zones

•    Must be authorized to work in the United States; we are not able to sponsor visas at this time

•    StockIQ is an equal opportunity employer. We hire based on talent, judgment, and fit, not pedigree
