UX/UI Lead – ADAPT Platform

About the Role

We are looking for an exceptional UX/UI Lead to define and elevate the user experience of the ADAPT platform — a category-defining, multi-sided digital ecosystem transforming industrial supply chains.

This is a leadership role for someone who can combine strategic product thinking with hands-on design execution. You will own the end-to-end user experience across buyers, suppliers, and national-level stakeholders, shaping a platform that must be both powerful and elegantly simple.

You will work closely with product, engineering, and commercial teams to translate complex workflows into intuitive, high-performance digital experiences.

Key Responsibilities

UX Strategy & Product Design

• Own the end-to-end UX vision and design strategy for the ADAPT platform
• Translate complex supply chain and ERP-driven workflows into simple, intuitive user journeys
• Define design principles, interaction models, and experience standards across the platform
• Lead discovery, user research, and usability testing to continuously refine the product

UI & Design Execution

• Create high-quality wireframes, prototypes, and production-ready UI designs
• Establish and maintain a scalable design system aligned with ADAPT branding
• Ensure consistency, clarity, and usability across all user touchpoints
• Drive a clean, modern, enterprise-grade visual language

Cross-Functional Leadership

• Partner closely with Product, Engineering, and Data teams to deliver seamless experiences
• Act as the voice of the user in product and technical discussions
• Guide and mentor designers as the team scales
• Collaborate with commercial teams to ensure UX supports adoption and growth

Platform Complexity & Integration

• Design experiences that integrate with ERP systems and external data sources
• Simplify data-heavy interfaces (inventory, materials, search, analytics) into actionable insights
• Ensure performance, responsiveness, and scalability across user types

Candidate Profile

• 8+ years in UX/UI design, with at least 2–3 years in a lead or senior role
• Proven experience designing complex, data-driven platforms (ERP, SaaS, marketplaces, or supply chain systems)
• Strong portfolio demonstrating both strategic thinking and hands-on design capability
• Deep understanding of user-centered design, interaction design, and usability principles
• Experience building and scaling design systems
• High proficiency in tools such as Figma (or equivalent)

Highly Desirable

• Experience in multi-sided platforms or marketplaces
• Exposure to industrial, energy, or supply chain environments
• Experience designing for enterprise users and operational workflows

What Success Looks Like

• ADAPT delivers a best-in-class, intuitive user experience despite underlying complexity
• High user adoption and engagement across buyers and suppliers
• A scalable, consistent design system that supports rapid product growth
• Clear differentiation through superior UX in a traditionally underserved market

Why Join Us

• Build a first-of-its-kind national digital platform with real economic impact
