About the Role
At Pavago, we’re hiring a UX/UI Designer for one of our clients to design intuitive, visually polished, and high-performing digital experiences across web and mobile products.

You’ll work closely with Product Managers, Engineers, QA, and leadership to understand user problems and translate them into digital experiences that are easy to use, scalable, and aligned with business objectives.
If you combine strong UX thinking with polished UI execution and enjoy solving real product problems through design, this role is a strong fit.
