At WEX, we’re not just a payments and technology company—we are pioneers on a mission to simplify the business of running a business.
Our Corporate Payments product space is evolving fast, and we recognize that the traditional “handoff” between design and dev teams is changing. We are looking for a UX Design Engineer, a hybrid creative and technical powerhouse, who doesn't just visualize the future of our experiences but helps us build them.
You will join a multi-disciplinary team of designers and researchers to help create and deliver world-class fintech products. You will be responsible for research & design of customer experiences, user testing, pitching ideas, and creating workflows, visual designs, and prototypes. You will use an AI-assisted coding tool to accelerate output, then refine the code and UX details so engineers can translate it into production.
Prototype in Figma Make and Cursor: Act as a bridge between design and engineering by using AI-assisted design & prototyping tools to accelerate ideation and delivery.
Work in GitHub: Maintain prototype work in a repo (clear structure, runnable setup, repeatable demos).
Design for real interaction: Show key flows, states, edge cases, and constraints with mock data.
Accessibility + responsiveness: Ensure prototypes include keyboard basics, semantic structure, and responsive layouts.
AI-assisted workflow: Use a text-to-code tool to generate a starting point, then edit and improve the output.
Pair with product + engineering: Iterate quickly based on feedback and evolving requirements.
Discovery + structure: Contribute to problem framing, IA, and research synthesis as teams define the new experience.
Usability testing: Plan and run lightweight usability sessions, then adjust prototypes based on findings.
Design system alignment: Use internal shadcn-based components and keep UI consistent with WEX standards.
3–5 years of UX/Product Design experience.
Ability to build and edit frontend prototypes using industry standard design tools, like Figma.
Experience using at least one AI coding tool (Cursor is a strong plus).
Comfort moving fast without relying on pixel-perfect static files.
Strong collaboration habits with engineers and product partners.
Strong experience running User Research end-to-end.
Strong experience running Usability tests end-to-end.
Ability to operate well when requirements are still forming (you clarify, propose, test, and iterate).
Advanced English proficiency.
Cursor or Bolt experience.
Familiarity with shadcn/ui patterns and theming.
Basic understanding of component composition and state (enough to express interaction logic cleanly).
