Job Description
About The Digital Panda
We are The Digital Panda, an experience design partner for brands that love their customers. What does that mean? We have spent over a decade designing digital experiences for brands that genuinely care about the people they serve, and that shapes everything that we do. We are not the agency for pushing pixels around a wireframe. We are the partner for when the experience matters, when the brand has to feel like something, and when the work needs to actually move business outcomes.
Our clients trust us with their hardest problems. We have re-imagined digital banking, partnered with national nonprofits, and shipped 3D-driven product experiences for some of the largest companies in the world. We do not work for recognition, but sometimes that happens too, and we operate as part of the WPI network alongside agencies serving the world's biggest brands.
We are a fully distributed team, and we are deliberately small. Every person here matters, every project gets your full attention, and the work you ship has your fingerprints on it from discovery through launch. If you have ever felt like a cog in a machine at a bigger shop, you will not feel that here.
About the Role
We are looking for a Product Designer to own complete features independently, from research through delivery, while working across 2-3 concurrent projects. You will contribute meaningfully to our design systems, support our Senior and Lead designers on larger initiatives, and start mentoring juniors on specific tasks.
This is the role where you stop being handed tickets and start owning outcomes. You will plan your own research, defend your own design decisions with data, and ship work that does not need to be re-done in code review.
You will work directly with our Lead UX/UI Designer, Creative Director, and engineering team across website redesigns, app features, and brand-led digital experiences.
What You Do
- Own end-to-end UX for features and modules, from research through high-fidelity prototyping
- Plan and execute user research independently, including interviews, usability testing, and surveys
- Build and maintain components within our design systems
- Constantly push beyond trends to design interfaces that drop jaws.
- Design across web, iOS, and Android with platform-appropriate patterns
- Build high-fidelity prototypes for complex interactions
- Work across 2-3 concurrent projects without quality drop
- Mentor junior designers on specific tasks and review their work
- Collaborate directly with developers during handoff, including basic HTML/CSS conversations
- Contribute to creative R&D and team process improvements
- Develop written case studies for completed work
