Job Summary

Bonsai Media Group is hiring a UX/UI Designer with strong user-research chops, polished system-based craft, and required experience using AI tools such as Perplexity, Midjourney, and ChatGPT to accelerate workflows. You’ll design accessible, responsive, data-informed experiences across e-commerce, nonprofit, and B2B projects while collaborating closely with developers, PMs, and stakeholders. Agency experience is a BIG plus!

 

Key Responsibilities

User Research & Testing

  • Stakeholder interviews, persona creation, journey mapping, card sorting, tree-testing, UX audits, analytics reviews
  • Document insights to inform IA, wireframes, and user stories

Design Execution

  • Create high-fidelity, component-based UIs and contribute to scalable design systems
  • Build responsive, WCAG-compliant layouts and interactive prototypes, leveraging AI accelerators when useful

Collaboration & Delivery

  • Present solutions to clients and internal teams; run design reviews; maintain clear specs
  • Use AI-assisted tools to enhance prototyping, documentation, and handoff

 

Requirements

  • 2+ years UX/UI experience delivering responsive, accessible, data-driven interfaces
  • Portfolio showcasing end-to-end case studies
  • Proficiency in discovery research methods, design-system maintenance, and high-fidelity tools (Figma or similar)
  • Working knowledge of WCAG 2.2 AA standards
  • AI Tool Familiarity (ChatGPT, Midjourney, Perplexity, etc.) — required
  • Excellent communication and self-management in a distributed team

 

Traits We Value

  1. Creative Problem Solver – Whether refining a complex flow or crafting an intuitive layout, you’re always thinking a step ahead with smart, user-focused solutions.
  2. Collaborative – You thrive in cross-functional teams, partnering with PMs, developers, strategists, and clients to bring bold ideas to life.
  3. Curiosity – Whether it’s staying on top of trends and best practices, trying out new tools, or experimenting with AI-assisted design workflows, you’re eager to learn what’s next and apply it thoughtfully.
  4. Detail-Oriented – You spot the off-center button, the inconsistent padding, or the unnecessary step in a user journey and you fix it.
  5. Adaptable – When feedback shifts or a client pivots, you stay grounded, respond with clarity, and move the work forward.
