We’re looking for a Senior UX/UI Designer – Digital Products
Barcelona · Hybrid · International Environment
Are you ready to shape high‑impact digital experiences in a fast‑growing Tech Hub? At Hays, we’re partnering with an international company looking for a Senior UX/UI Designer who thrives in end‑to‑end product ownership, Lean UX methodologies, and data‑driven decision‑making.
What will you do?
You will own and lead the full UX/UI design process for selected digital products and features — from discovery to final delivery.
You will:
* Apply Lean UX principles : small iterative steps, lightweight artefacts and continuous validation with users and data.
* Collaborate closely with Product, Engineering, Data/AI and Business stakeholders.
* Translate insights into clear problem statements, hypotheses, and success metrics.
* Design user journeys, flows and interactions across web, app and internal tools to create seamless experiences.
* Build wireframes, interaction models and low‑ to high‑fidelity prototypes, delivering UI aligned with the brand, design system and accessibility standards.
* Use AI‑assisted tools for ideation, variants, UX writing, localisation or research synthesis — always applying critical judgement.
* Design and refine AI‑ and data‑enabled features (search, recommendations, personalisation, assistants, smart tooling…).
* Make decisions based on both quantitative and qualitative data.
* Design not only for humans but also for synthetic users (AI agents, scripts), ensuring robust interaction contracts.
* Contribute to the design system and cross‑platform consistency.
* As a Senior: lead workshops, provide feedback to fellow designers, and help elevate UX practices across teams.
