Job Description
About the Role
Be the UX force at Irth — shaping digital products that make tough tasks feel effortless and users love.
Irth is hiring a User Experience Designer to help create the future of our web and mobile app products. Our solutions are engineered to improve resilience and reduce risk in the sustainable delivery of utility, energy, telecommunication, and media services.
You'll join a small but mighty Experience Team of three, where design leadership is not just welcomed—it's expected. We're looking for someone who thrives on owning the full UX process, not just a slice of it. Working remotely, you'll be guided by our Creative Director but have the autonomy to drive UX strategy and execution with minimal oversight.
This role blends strategic thinking with hands-on design. You'll work in a fast-paced, collaborative environment alongside product managers, developers, stakeholders, and customers—translating insights and business goals into intuitive, impactful user experiences.

- Constructing user personas and user flow diagrams.
- Creating wireframes, prototypes, and detailed UI mockups.
- Presenting user experience concepts and designs to stakeholders.
- Collecting and analyzing user feedback and behavioral data to inform design iterations.
- Collaborating with product managers and developers to ensure feasibility and alignment.
- Documenting finalized designs for development, QA, and internal teams.
Requirements and Skills
- Proven track record of designing digital products end-to-end.
- 2-5 years of experience as a UX Designer or UX Strategist, ideally in a SaaS or web/app-based environment.
- Advanced proficiency in Figma, including component libraries and prototyping.
- Deep understanding of UX principles, interaction design, and usability testing.
- Strong communication and presentation skills—you can clearly articulate design decisions.
- Analytical mindset with sharp attention to detail.
- Comfortable working independently and collaboratively in a remote, cross-functional team.
Benefits
- Join a dynamic, growing company that is well respected in its industry.
- Health plans options including medical, dental, & vision.
- 401k or RSP + company match.
- Flexible PTO policy plus company-paid holidays.
- Generous one-time "work from home" stipend to get you started.
- Team events including monthly lunches for everyone, volunteer outings, and quarterly gatherings.
- Hybrid employees have access to snacks, beverages and coffee at our Columbus, Ohio office.
