What is a contract product designer?

A Contract Product Designer is a design professional hired on a temporary or project basis to create user-centric digital products, such as websites and mobile apps. They focus on UX/UI design, prototyping, and collaboration with cross-functional teams to ensure a seamless user experience. Unlike full-time designers, contract designers work for a set duration, often juggling multiple clients or projects. This role provides flexibility but requires strong time management and communication skills.

What are the typical daily responsibilities of a contract product designer?

As a Contract Product Designer, your daily tasks usually include collaborating with cross-functional teams to understand project goals, creating wireframes and interactive prototypes, and conducting user research or usability testing. You will iterate on designs based on feedback, manage project timelines, and ensure that deliverables meet both client specifications and user needs. Communication and collaboration are frequent, as you may join meetings with stakeholders, developers, or other designers to align on requirements and priorities. This fast-paced role often involves juggling multiple projects simultaneously, giving you a dynamic and varied workday while expanding your portfolio and professional network.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the contract product designer position, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Contract Product Designer, you need a strong background in user experience (UX) and user interface (UI) design, visual communication, and an ability to translate business requirements into functional digital solutions. Expertise in industry-standard design tools like Figma, Sketch, Adobe Creative Suite, and proficiency with prototyping and user testing software is often expected. Excellent communication, problem-solving skills, and the ability to adapt quickly to new teams and projects make a significant impact in this role. These skills and qualities enable contract product designers to deliver high-quality, user-centered products efficiently and collaborate effectively within fast-paced, project-based environments.

Job description

About Authorium
Authorium is the governed front door for government documents. Every consequential thing a government does starts as a document, whether a scope of work, a minimum needs statement, a bill analysis, a project charter, and it has to become governed, structured action: an approval, a procurement, a contract, a grant. We start with the document, connect it to a governed AI layer, and let it accrue the actions that turn it into a workflow.
We're investing in AI capabilities - both internally and externally - building workflows specifically for government operations, and building an AI-first operational culture to accelerate our work and go further. AI isn't a side project here - it's reshaping both what we build and how we build it.
What a Designer is at Authorium
You take an idea from a rough concept to a polished, production interface running in front of real government users, and you work highly independently through that process with a clear feedback loop.
You'll lean heavily on AI-native tooling to compress that loop. We expect you to be genuinely fluent in Claude Design and comparable AI design/build tools by using them to go from prompt to prototype. The candidates we're most excited about treat AI as a force multiplier on craft, not a replacement for it.
Why This Role Exists
Government workflows are complex by nature. Our users manage procurement solicitations, evaluation scoring, contract documents, and compliance reporting and often for the first time on a digital platform. Making dense, high-stakes workflows feel navigable for people who didn't choose the tool and can't easily change their process is our baseline challenge - and an Authorium Design Engineer relishes that challenge and has a desire to live on both the design and engineering side of delivery.
What You'll Do
Design and build, end to end
  • Take features from concept through interaction design, prototyping, and have a desire to front-end implementation.
  • Build and maintain real interfaces in our codebase (Hotwire / Next.js), partnering with Engineering on architecture, state, and performance.
  • Use Claude Design and other AI tooling to move fast: rapid prototypes, multiple directions, working components and bring strong judgment about which output is actually good.

Shape the product surface
  • Improve UX across the platform from intake, approvals, document generation, evaluations, configuration, and reporting including fixing inconsistencies and usability gaps as you go.
  • Contribute to the design system: components, patterns, and libraries that keep the product coherent and speed up everyone's delivery. You'll both use it and extend it in code.
  • Help shape how AI shows up in the product with making AuthorAI feel context-aware and trustworthy for users across every level of AI comfort.

Ship with quality
  • Design and build for accessibility and compliance from the start (WCAG 2.1 AA) - our government customers require it.
  • Review your work against design intent through delivery and hold the bar on fidelity and polish.
  • Work in sprints; manage your work in Jira and participate in planning and grooming.

Collaborate
  • Partner with PMs to frame problems and make scope tradeoffs, and with Engineering on feasibility and front-end quality.
  • Talk to users: lightweight usability checks, observing real workflows, and turning what you learn into better interfaces.
What We're Looking For
Required
  • 2-3 years building digital products where you both designed and implemented the front end portfolios that show shipped work, not just mockups.
  • Strong design craft: interaction design, layout, and a sharp eye for detail in dense, data-heavy interfaces with tables, filters, multi-step flows, role-based views.
  • Demonstrated fluency with Claude Design (and/or comparable AI design/build tools) used as a serious part of how you ship and please show us examples.
  • Proficiency in Figma (components, libraries, auto-layout, prototyping).
  • Comfort with ambiguity and a bias toward shipping and you make judgment calls with incomplete information and move between design and code in the same day.
  • Understanding of accessibility standards (WCAG 2.1 AA).
  • Clear communication as you can explain a decision in terms of user outcomes and tradeoffs, not just aesthetics.
  • San Francisco Bay Area Based: Energized by an in-office (Monday-Thursday) collaborative culture.

Nice to Have
  • Experience with dense, workflow-driven enterprise / B2B products.
  • Exposure to government, public sector, or other regulated/compliance-driven environments.
  • Experience with product analytics tools (Pendo, Mixpanel, Amplitude, or similar).
  • Experience integrating AI features into a product UI.
