About this role

About OptiSigns OptiSigns is a Houston-based B2B SaaS company that helps more than 22,000 businesses engage customers and employees through intuitive digital-screen solutions. We believe great software should feel effortless—even to non-technical users—and that thoughtful design is as critical as solid engineering. Why this role exists We’re expanding our product line and need a craft-obsessed engineer who can own the entire front-end experience—from Figma designs to pixel-perfect production code. If you love sweating the details of typography and motion and thrive in a codebase, you’ll fit right in. What you’ll do 40% – Design delightful UIs in Figma: information architecture, low- to hi-fi mock-ups, interactive prototypes, component libraries, accessibility states, and responsive breakpoints. 40% – Build the designs using modern HTML, semantic CSS/SCSS (or Tailwind), TypeScript, and React (Next.js) or Angular. Maintain a clean, reusable component system. 10% – User-test & iterate: run quick usability tests, interpret analytics/heatmaps, and turn findings into improvements. 10% – Collaborate & ship: work with product managers, full-stack/backend engineers, and QA to deliver features end-to-end, review PRs, and improve our DX tooling (Storybook, ESLint, Husky, etc.). Requirements What you bring 0–3 years building customer-facing web apps (portfolio or live products required). Mastery of Figma (auto-layout, variants, design tokens, FigJam). Production experience with React or Angular , modern TypeScript, and component architectures. Deep understanding of HTML semantics, CSS layouts (Flexbox / Grid), responsive design, accessibility (WCAG 2.2), and performance optimizations . Familiarity with design systems (Material, Ant, Radix, or your own), animation libraries (Framer Motion, GSAP), and testing (Jest, Testing Library, Cypress). Comfort working in an Agile, CI/CD environment (GitLab CI/CD, Vercel/AWS). A user-centric mindset—ability to translate business goals into intuitive flows and elegant interactions. Excellent written & verbal communication. Bonus points Experience with data-heavy dashboards or B2B SaaS UX. Knowledge of Node.js Illustration/icon skills, motion graphics, or brand design chops.
