UI/UX Designer & Reseacher (Equity Only)

MealMatch AI is a live, AI-powered meal planning and nutrition app focused on helping people eat healthier. They are seeking a UI/UX Designer & Researcher to own the design process, elevate their existing app, and conduct user research to inform product decisions.

Responsibilities:

• Evolve our existing iOS app design — we're live, so this is about elevation, not just creation
• Design new feature sets including our Health Dashboard, condition-aware meal planning, and dietitian booking experience
• Build and maintain a design system, style guide, and component library in Figma
• Ensure visual consistency, accessibility, and mobile-first polish across every screen
• Own the user research function — interviews, usability tests, surveys, and synthesis
• Translate findings into actionable design decisions and product recommendations
• Identify friction points in our current onboarding, subscription, and meal generation flows
• Help us understand our users deeply: their goals, habits, frustrations, and motivations
• Work directly with our CEO, CTO, and AI engineer to align design with product and technical realities
• Partner with our registered dietitian collaborator to ensure health-forward experiences feel credible and trustworthy
• Contribute to investor materials, pitch decks, and brand presentation as needed

Requirements:

• 1+ year of UI/UX design experience with a portfolio that demonstrates both craft and process
• Some exposure to user research — interviews, usability tests, or synthesis work, even from academic or personal projects
• Proficiency in Figma and comfort working within an existing design language while pushing it forward
• Understanding of mobile-first and iOS design patterns
• Experience with health, wellness, food, or consumer apps is a plus but not required
• Someone who takes ownership, communicates clearly, and thrives in an async, remote environment
• Genuine alignment with our mission — this isn't just a gig, it's a stake in something real
