What does an outsourced UX Designer handle?
+
A Kuubiik-assigned UX Designer leads the research and strategic design process for your digital product. This includes user research and persona development, information architecture, user flow mapping, wireframing, prototyping, usability testing, and working closely with UI designers and developers to ensure the product experience is intuitive and user-centred. Kuubiik handles all contracts, compliance, and payments.
How long does it take to source a UX Designer?
+
Mid-level UX Designer profiles are typically sourced and onboarded within 15 to 30 calendar days. Senior UX strategists or those with specialised experience in complex product ecosystems, enterprise software, or user research methodologies may take up to 45 days. Kuubiik presents up to three shortlisted profiles including portfolio and case study samples for client review.
Can a remote UX Designer conduct user research and usability testing effectively?
+
Yes. Remote UX research is standard practice across the industry, with established methodologies for conducting user interviews, usability tests, and surveys through tools like Maze, UserTesting, Hotjar, and Google Meet. A Kuubiik-assigned UX Designer is experienced in remote research methods and will work with your team to recruit participants, run sessions, and synthesise findings into actionable design recommendations.
Who owns the UX research, wireframes, and prototypes produced during the engagement?
+
You do. Under Kuubiik's Master Service Agreement, all intellectual property produced - including research reports, user personas, journey maps, wireframes, and prototypes - is assigned to the client upon full payment. This applies worldwide for the full legal duration of the IP rights.
What countries can I source a remote UX Designer from?
+
Remote UX Designers are sourced from Southeast Asia and Latin America (LATAM). Southeast Asia has strong creative talent across design, video, and social - particularly in the Philippines and Indonesia. LATAM (Colombia, Brazil, Argentina) is also a solid option if US timezone alignment matters. Mention any language or regional requirements in your brief and the matching will factor that in.
What does the monthly fee include when outsourcing a UX Designer?
+
The monthly fee covers everything on the engagement management side - your UX Designer's compensation, contract setup, compliance administration, and monthly payments. There are no recurring admin fees on top. The only upfront cost is a one-time deposit equivalent to one month's fee. Research and design tools (Figma, Maze, Hotjar, etc.) are separate and remain under your control.
How is outsourcing a UX Designer different from using a freelance platform?
+
Outsourcing a UX Designer through a Contractor of Record model gives you a dedicated, full-time professional working exclusively for your business - not a freelancer splitting attention across multiple clients. Contracts, compliance, and monthly payments are fully managed, so there is no admin overhead on your side. You also get free, unlimited replacements if the fit is not right. UX research requires time to understand your users and product deeply - that context builds over weeks and does not transfer well between freelancers.
