Senior Mapping Designer Jobs in Tennessee (NOW HIRING)

Zipliens is looking for a Senior Product Designer to join our team, shaping the product experiences that power the next generation of applications for the legal industry. After several years of high growth, Zipliens has become a leader in lien resolution, a process required in most personal injury settlements. The software we build supports the lien resolution work we perform on behalf of law firms, helping them operate more efficiently while ultimately enabling the injured parties they service to access settlement funds more quickly and completely - giving our work a clear, real-world impact beyond the design challenges.

We're hiring our first product designer to lead end-to-end design for core areas of our product, from concept through launch. You won't just be refining details - you'll be defining problems, mapping flows, and crafting the experiences our customers and Operations teams rely on every day. Your decisions will show up in what we ship, your voice will influence direction across product and engineering, and your craft will help set the standard for quality as we grow. At Zipliens, design is part of how we build - you'll be involved early, move quickly, and see your work used by real people. As our first design hire, you'll also have outsized influence on the Figma design system, the design practices, and the patterns that shape the team as it grows.

Requirements

Responsibilities:

Product Design & Craft

• Lead end-to-end design for key product areas - discovery, wireframing, prototyping, and final UI.
• Define user problems, map flows, and shape information architecture to create clear, usable experiences.
• Iterate on designs based on user feedback, product analytics, and post-launch insights.
• Help shape the design practices and conventions that set how design happens at Zipliens as the team grows.

Cross-Functional Partnership

• Partner closely with product managers and engineers to translate requirements into intuitive, well-crafted experiences.
• Conduct and synthesize user research to inform design decisions.
• Work with Operations and other internal stakeholders to understand how the product is used and where it can serve them better.

Design System & Tooling

• Build out and evolve our Figma design system - components, patterns, and conventions that scale with the product.
• Leverage AI tools for ideation, content generation, and research synthesis - without losing the design thinking that makes the work good.

Qualifications:

• 5+ years of product/UX design experience, ideally in a SaaS or B2B environment.
• Strong portfolio that demonstrates end-to-end product thinking, not just visual polish - including how you framed problems, made trade-offs, measured impact, and connected user needs to business outcomes.
• Deep Figma proficiency - components, auto layout, prototyping, dev handoff, and AI-assisted features - with a habit of reaching for the right tool at the right time.
• Solid grasp of UX fundamentals: information architecture, interaction design, accessibility.
• Comfortable using product analytics tools to validate design decisions.
• Experience designing scalable flows and patterns - including the edge cases that show up in complex products - and validating through testing and iteration.
• Strong communication skills and a track record of explaining design choices and bringing cross-functional partners along.
• Thrives in a fast-moving environment where priorities can shift, and structure is still being built.
