About the Role
At Pavago, one of our clients is hiring a Product Designer to create intuitive, scalable, and visually polished digital experiences across web and mobile products.
This is not a purely visual UI design role. You’ll own the product design process from user research and UX flows through wireframes, prototypes, high-fidelity interfaces, design systems, and developer handoff.
You’ll work closely with product managers and engineers to simplify complex workflows and create experiences that are functional, accessible, user-friendly, and aligned with business goals.
If you combine strong UX thinking, UI craftsmanship, product problem-solving, and Figma expertise, this role is a strong fit.

- Support QA and refinement through development and release
Testing & Continuous Improvement
- Conduct usability reviews on existing and newly launched experiences
- Gather user and stakeholder feedback after releases
- Run or support A/B tests to validate design decisions
- Analyze product performance and identify UX improvements
