Leads UI/UX quality and design operations for a learning app, combining hands-on reviews and prototyping with designer coaching, evaluation, and coordination across product teams.
About this role
SpeakBUDDY runs the AI English conversation app Speak Buddy, used by five million people cumulatively. It is opening a new UI/UX Designer position as it invests in product improvement to raise retention and conversion through better user experience.
The designer leads experience design that raises product value, meaning an enjoyable and efficient learning experience that keeps learners coming back; defines, improves and spreads a design system that keeps the experience consistent across the product; and promotes design communication in a Japanese-English bilingual environment with a multinational team. The company expects the person to build the mechanisms from zero and root them in the team, not to operate a finished system. The designer team sits under the CTO and has a UI/UX manager and a UI designer who is also an illustrator; both are non-Japanese and work in English, and the UI/UX designer can also speak Japanese. The role also works with planners and engineers. Tools are Figma, Illustrator, Photoshop and Rive.
