Job Description

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.

Benefits

Benefits & Perks

  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • Flexible schedule & remote-friendly culture (Houston HQ for those who prefer in-office)
  • Generous PTO & paid holidays
  • 401(k) with match (coming 2025)
  • Monthly learning stipend (courses, conferences, books)
  • Latest MacBook Pro / dev setup of your choice

We review every application personally and respond within a week.
