Senior UI Designer resume example

• As workstream lead, built Figma components for a design system with documented states, spacing, and typography; checked long labels and validation errors so teams could reuse the component without inventing missing behavior.
• With responsibility for the review standard, reviewed interaction design and accessibility with keyboard-only navigation, visible focus, and error announcements; paired with engineering to fix differences between Figma specifications and rendered components.
• Defined Figma component variants for loading, empty and error states, checked contrast and keyboard focus, and compared the implemented screens against the design specification.
• Built an interactive prototype for connected-device setup, tested pairing failures and recovery prompts with users, and revised the interaction sequence before the companion-app implementation.
• Designed a layout review using usability tasks and brand-identity constraints, resolved inconsistent interactive states and completed an annotated accessibility handoff.
• Built a high-fidelity prototype and interactive demo of a device recovery flow, mapped each screen to its changing requirements, and tested interrupted setup and voice-interaction feedback before handing the specification to software development.
• Owned a high-fidelity prototype using React Native interaction tests, resolved ambiguous voice-interaction states and completed an engineering handoff with explicit requirements.
• Published interactive demos using consistent visual tokens, reduced implementation clarification requests by 27% and retained examples of loading, error and cancellation behavior.

• Created visual QA checkpoints for 9 feature teams before release; aligned review standards and decision owners across the participating teams. Working with partner teams, kept the improvement stable through the follow-up review.
• Annotated the delivered design with spacing, type and interaction decisions, reviewed the first implementation with engineering, and corrected differences that affected comprehension or accessibility.
• Tested a revised layout with realistic long text, empty content and error states, annotated the places where the hierarchy broke down, and adjusted labels and spacing while preserving the established design system.

• Rebuilt color tokens against rendered contrast and semantic use; aligned review standards and decision owners across the participating teams
• Created a self-directed design brief with a defined audience, content hierarchy and accessibility constraints; compared distinct visual directions using the same content rather than changing the message with each mockup.
• Checked the chosen design at its intended display or print size, annotated readability and contrast problems, and delivered editable source files with typography, color and export specifications.
• Owned the independent design review using actual-size proofs, resolved contrast and reading-order defects and completed an annotated before-and-after specification.

Relevant coursework: Typography, visual communication, interaction design, design research

• Published a personal design case study using the prototype test record, explaining how audience needs changed the hierarchy and documenting the accessibility limits of the final design.
