OptiSigns is hiring a Jr. UI Engineer (UI/UX - Figma - React / Angular)

About the Role

As a Jr. UI Engineer, you’ll play a key role in shaping the front-end experience of a digital-screen platform designed for business use. You'll work at the intersection of design and development, transforming Figma mock-ups into functional, accessible, and responsive interfaces using modern web technologies.

What You’ll Do

  • Design user interfaces in Figma, including information architecture, interactive prototypes, component libraries, and responsive layouts across breakpoints.
  • Convert designs into high-quality, semantic code using HTML, CSS/SCSS or Tailwind, TypeScript, and either React (with Next.js) or Angular.
  • Build and maintain a consistent, reusable component system that supports scalability and developer efficiency.
  • Conduct lightweight usability testing and analyze user behavior through heatmaps and product analytics to inform iterative improvements.
  • Collaborate with product managers, backend engineers, and QA to deliver end-to-end features that align with user needs and technical standards.
  • Participate in code reviews and contribute to developer experience enhancements using tools like Storybook, ESLint, and Husky.

What We’re Looking For

  • Proven ability to create detailed designs in Figma, including accessibility states and responsive behavior.
  • Strong coding skills in modern front-end technologies, with a focus on clean, maintainable implementation.
  • Experience translating visual designs into production-ready, pixel-perfect interfaces.
  • Familiarity with building and managing component libraries and front-end design systems.
  • Understanding of accessibility guidelines and responsive design principles.
  • Ability to work effectively within cross-functional teams, balancing input from design, product, and engineering.

Nice to Have

  • Exposure to developer tooling such as Storybook, ESLint, or Husky.
  • Background in user testing, heatmap analysis, or interpreting product usage data.

Culture & Environment

The team values precision in both design and code. Thoughtful interaction patterns and technical rigor go hand in hand. The goal is software that feels intuitive and seamless—even for users without technical expertise. Engineering is craft-driven, with a focus on clarity, maintainability, and user-centered outcomes.
