Unlike full-time employees, they typically work for a set period or on specific projects, often for multiple clients. Their responsibilities include conducting user research, designing wireframes and prototypes, collaborating with developers and stakeholders, and ensuring that products meet user needs. Contract UX Designers offer flexibility to companies needing specialized skills or extra support for particular projects.
