DesignLisbon or remote$30/hour trial → $30k–$60k/yrNo CV
DansUGC is a marketplace, a customer dashboard, a creator portal, an admin suite, and a rotating portfolio of consumer apps. Right now one person designs all of it. You'd own the whole visual system — and the taste bar that goes with it.
What you'll do
- Own the design system end to end: dansugc.com, the dashboard, the creator portal, and every consumer app we launch.
- Design and ship real screens — Figma to production, working in the codebase when that's the faster path.
- Set the motion and interaction bar: the details nobody notices until they're missing.
- Art-direct the surfaces that sell — landing pages, App Store screenshots, ad creative, brand.
What we're looking for
- A portfolio where at least one thing is genuinely beautiful, and you can explain exactly why it works.
- Fluent in Figma, comfortable enough in the browser to push your own CSS.
- Opinions about type, spacing and motion — ones you'll defend, and ones you'll change.
- Speed. Three iterations by Thursday beats one perfect screen next month.
