UX Designer (Remote)
About the Job Cypress HCM is seeking an agile and highly visual UX/Visual Designer to support the digital experiences and creative initiatives of a leading entertainment and media company. This role focuses on web design, scalable design-system components, visual assets, and emerging AI-powered creative tools. The ideal candidate can move quickly from initial concepts to polished, production-ready designs while independently solving design challenges and maintaining high quality under tight deadlines. The designer will contribute to B2B, SaaS, entertainment, digital merchandising, and upper-funnel e-commerce experiences, with a strong emphasis on improving business-facing websites and developing reusable design components.
Key Responsibilities
Design and improve digital experiences for business-facing websites and other digital properties. Create reusable design-system components and patterns using Figma. Identify and solve visual and user experience design challenges efficiently. Source, generate, edit, and manipulate imagery using traditional and AI-powered creative tools. Explore and integrate emerging AI tools and workflows into the design process. Translate concepts into polished, production-ready designs within tight timelines. Collaborate with stakeholders and clients to develop effective creative solutions. Support B2B, SaaS, and web-based product experiences. Develop creative assets for entertainment, sports, seasonal campaigns, and digital merchandising initiatives. Contribute to upper-funnel e-commerce and retail experiences, focusing on discovery and engagement rather than transactional checkout. Participate in A/B testing and user-testing initiatives when appropriate. Communicate design decisions clearly and present the rationale behind creative solutions to stakeholders. Stay informed about emerging technologies, AI-powered creative tools, and evolving design practices.
Required Qualifications
Professional experience as a Product Designer, UX Designer, Visual Designer, Digital Designer, or in a similar role. Several years of hands-on experience working with Figma. A strong portfolio demonstrating design thinking, problem-solving, and the process behind design decisions—not just finished visuals. Experience designing websites and digital products. Experience creating reusable design-system components and patterns. Strong visual design skills and an understanding of modern web experiences. Ability to work efficiently, manage competing priorities, and deliver quality designs under tight deadlines. Strong communication skills, including the ability to explain design decisions and creative processes. Comfort working collaboratively with stakeholders and clients.
Preferred Qualifications
Experience with AI-powered design tools and creative technologies. A demonstrated interest in artificial intelligence and emerging technologies. Experience designing B2B or SaaS products and digital experiences. Background in entertainment, media, television, sports, retail, or e-commerce. Experience with digital merchandising and large-scale consumer or business-facing websites. Familiarity with A/B testing and user-testing methodologies. Experience creating AI-generated or AI-enhanced imagery. Experience supporting customer-facing or client-driven design initiatives. Ideal Candidate Profile The ideal candidate is a proactive, adaptable designer who can balance speed, creativity, and quality. They enjoy solving complex design problems, moving between different types of creative projects, and experimenting with new tools and technologies. A genuine interest in AI-driven design innovation is important. Experience in entertainment and television, along with exposure to B2B, SaaS, digital merchandising, or upper-funnel e-commerce, will be particularly valuable. Candidates whose experience is primarily limited to static graphic design, who have outdated Figma skills, or who are uncomfortable adopting new technologies may not be a good fit for this role.

Anticipated Start: October 2026. Hourly Rate: $40–$50 per hour. This opportunity is suited to an experienced UX/Visual Designer who can contribute immediately, adapt to evolving creative requirements, and help deliver scalable, engaging digital experiences.
