Job Details of UX/UI Designer
About the Role
We’re looking for a UX/UI Designer who’s excited to help shape and elevate the digital shopping experience on Ariat.com. This role blends strong UI design skills with design system experience and a knack for using both qualitative and quantitative insights to guide decisions.
You’ll join a collaborative, small-but-mighty UX/UI team where everyone contributes ideas, keeps work moving, and looks for ways to make the site experience cleaner, faster, and more consistent. The right candidate is curious, resourceful, and motivated to both execute high-quality work and raise their hand when they see opportunities for improvement.
How We Work as a Team: Our team thrives on being hands-on, collaborative, and solution-focused. We look for opportunities rather than waiting for tasks. We balance execution with idea generation — small polish fixes matter as much as big initiatives. We keep design consistent across the funnel through our design system. We use data and research to back up our design decisions. We communicate openly, share progress, and flag blockers early. You’ll be encouraged to take ownership, contribute your perspective, and make an impact without needing layers of approval.
