We re now looking for a Mid/Senior Product Designer with exceptional UX and UI depth and systems thinking to join our growing product team. You ll work alongside another talented Designer (UI-focused), collaborative product and engineering teams, and a leadership group who care deeply about great design and thoughtful user experience. We are a bootstrapped, profitable and fully remote company of 25 (six Full Stack Developers). Having been remote from day one, we believe in the benefits of remote working and intend to keep it that way. Our loyal customers love our product, are generous with feedback, and love to work with us in helping to build a best-of-breed platform with us. You'll be working directly with some of our customers to help design and build the product, which is how we love to build, and we'll give you the autonomy and ownership to do so. About the Role You ll lead UX and UI design across our platform, driving clarity, usability, and coherence in every interaction. You ll work on a mature, high-impact SaaS product used daily by Clinicians and admin teams to deliver serious medical care and diagnoses, not fleeting app experiences. Every detail matters - our users depend on us to get it right, and our pixel-perfect standards are non-negotiable. It s what our customers have come to expect. You ll own end-to-end design for complex workflows, ensuring every feature we ship feels effortless, safe, and deeply considered. Reporting to the Head of Product, you ll collaborate closely with the product team to bring structure, logic, and empathy to how Carebit evolves. What You ll Do: Lead design across the Carebit platform, ensuring interactions feel intuitive, efficient and reliable for Clinicians and Secretaries alike. Translate complex workflows and requirements into simple, elegant solutions that fit naturally within an existing system. Partner with the rest of the product and design team to create flawless visual polish and consistency across every component and screen.

Work collaboratively with Engineers and product team to explore, test, and validate designs before they re built. Engage directly with customers to understand context, gather feedback, and refine the product experience. Help shape our design culture, bringing rigour, organisation, and leadership to our design process. About You: You re a mid senior level Product Designer with at least 3 5 years of experience designing web-based SaaS products (not consumer apps).

Carebit is a design-led healthcare technology company helping thousands of private Doctors across the UK run their practices more effectively and efficiently - and supporting millions of their patients. Our web-based automation platform powers private medical practices every day, simplifying everything from appointments to clinical documentation. We re now looking for a Mid/Senior Product Designer with exceptional UX and UI depth and systems thinking to join our growing product team. You ll work alongside another talented Designer (UI-focused), collaborative product and engineering teams, and a leadership group who care deeply about great design and thoughtful user experience. We are a bootstrapped, profitable and fully remote company of 25 (six Full Stack Developers). Having been remote from day one, we believe in the benefits of remote working and intend to keep it that way. Our loyal customers love our product, are generous with feedback, and love to work with us in helping to build a best-of-breed platform with us. You'll be working directly with some of our customers to help design and build the product, which is how we love to build, and we'll give you the autonomy and ownership to do so. About the Role You ll lead UX and UI design across our platform, driving clarity, usability, and coherence in every interaction. You ll work on a mature, high-impact SaaS product used daily by Clinicians and admin teams to deliver serious medical care and diagnoses, not fleeting app experiences. Every detail matters - our users depend on us to get it right, and our pixel-perfect standards are non-negotiable. It s what our customers have come to expect. You ll own end-to-end design for complex workflows, ensuring every feature we ship feels effortless, safe, and deeply considered. Reporting to the Head of Product, you ll collaborate closely with the product team to bring structure, logic, and empathy to how Carebit evolves. What You ll Do: Lead design across the Carebit platform, ensuring interactions feel intuitive, efficient and reliable for Clinicians and Secretaries alike. Translate complex workflows and requirements into simple, elegant solutions that fit naturally within an existing system. Partner with the rest of the product and design team to create flawless visual polish and consistency across every component and screen. Advocate for quality and precision - We design for Doctors, not consumers, and every interaction must be right. Work collaboratively with Engineers and product team to explore, test, and validate designs before they re built. Engage directly with customers to understand context, gather feedback, and refine the product experience. Help shape our design culture, bringing rigour, organisation, and leadership to our design process.
