We are not looking for someone who executes briefs. We want someone who interrogates them.

This is a senior individual contributor role that sits at the heart of Elile’s product and brand experience. You will own the design function end-to-end - from product UI/UX across our enterprise applications, to our corporate and marketing web presence, to digital assets and campaign materials. You will work in close collaboration with our developers and product managers on-site, ensuring that what gets built matches the vision exactly.

The right person sees the whole picture the moment they walk into a project - the user, the purpose, the platform, the emotion, and the journey, and makes a series of deliberate, confident decisions to bring it to life.

You know when a product screen needs silence and restraint, and when a website needs to stop the scroll. You can pair brutal minimalism with bold visual moments and make both feel completely intentional.

If your portfolio makes people stop and look twice - if your work has a clear point of view and the confidence to hold it, we want to meet you.

Responsibilities:

Product Design & UI/UX:

• Own the end-to-end product design process - from user research and journey mapping through to wireframes, high-fidelity UI, and developer-ready specifications
• Design intuitive, polished interfaces for complex enterprise software products across web and mobile platforms
• Architect user flows, interaction models, and information structures that make sophisticated functionality feel effortless
• Build and maintain a structured design system: components, tokens, patterns, and documentation, that scales with the product and dev team
• Conduct usability reviews, identify friction in existing flows, and iterate continuously based on feedback and data
• Design for multiple user types and contexts - from technical operators in high-assurance environments to senior government stakeholders

Visual Design & Brand:

• Define and evolve visual identity across all digital touchpoints: products, websites,presentations, and marketing assets
• Maintain a coherent, high-quality design language that works across contexts: enterprise product interfaces, public-facing websites, and executive-level materials
• Know when an interface needs restraint and negative space, and when it needs to command attention, and execute both with conviction
• Design landing pages, campaign assets, pitch decks, and presentation materials that are visually consistent and strategically sharp
• Art-direct corporate and product websites - crafting experiences that inform,impress, and convert

Collaboration & Delivery:

• Work closely and daily with front-end developers on-site to ensure pixel-perfect, faithful implementation of designs
• Collaborate with product managers to align design decisions with the product roadmap and user priorities
• Present and defend design decisions clearly and confidently to leadership, including the CEO
• Deliver production-ready Figma files, annotated specs, and assets that leave no room for misinterpretation in development
• Challenge briefs where necessary - bring a perspective and a point of view, not just execution

Requirements

Non-Negotiable:

• A portfolio that demonstrates genuine mastery - range, restraint, boldness, and a strong individual design point of view. This is the primary credential we evaluate
• Expert command of Figma and 3D rendering tools, as needed - components, auto-layout,variables, prototyping, design systems, and developer handoff
• Deep understanding of UX principles, information architecture, and interaction design across web and mobile platforms
• Strong visual design sensibility - typography, colour, spacing, hierarchy, and motion all deployed with intention and discipline
• The ability to design across multiple platforms and contexts without losing visual coherence or brand consistency
• Fluent communication in English, able to present and defend design rationale to technical and non-technical audiences
• Available to work on-site in Abu Dhabi, 5 days per week

Strongly Preferred:

• Experience designing enterprise or B2B software products - complex workflows, data-dense dashboards, and multi-user environments
• Familiarity with front-end constraints - you do not need to code, but you understand what is buildable and why it matters
• Motion design and micro-interaction sensibility - knowing when animation adds meaning versus noise
• Prior work in security, defence-tech, government technology, or high-assurance software environments
• Arabic language skills - an advantage for local stakeholder engagement and regional market understanding
