About this role
From the SME Careers listing
In this hourly, remote contractor role, you will work as an Adobe XD Specialist (SME) to create realistic, challenging computer-based tasks using Adobe XD and related user interface, user experience, and digital product design workflows.
You will develop practical Adobe XD tasks, document them clearly in SuperAnnotate, prepare your computer and design files, and record yourself executing each task.
Tasks may include developing website and mobile application interfaces, modifying existing UI screens, managing components, configuring responsive layouts, building interactive prototypes, working with design systems, preparing developer handoff assets, and refining digital product designs.
This role is particularly relevant to professionals in UI/UX design, web and digital interface design, product design, interaction design, and creative technology.
This role is with SME Careers, a fast-growing AI Data Services company and subsidiary of SuperAnnotate, delivering training data for many of the world's largest AI companies and foundation-model labs. Your Adobe XD expertise will help improve advanced AI models by demonstrating how experienced design professionals complete real-world interface design and prototyping workflows.
Key responsibilities
- Create realistic Adobe XD tasks: Develop professional UI/UX design and prototyping challenges and document them in SuperAnnotate.
- Prepare the work environment: Ensure Adobe XD is accessible and that design files, assets, components, fonts, and references are available before recording.
- Record task execution: Capture yourself performing Adobe XD tasks on your computer, showing relevant design decisions, interface modifications, and prototype interactions.
- Demonstrate professional software use: Perform workflows involving artboards, components, responsive layouts, repeat grids, interactive prototypes, design systems, and asset preparation.
- Document task context: Describe the design objective, input materials, functional constraints, and expected result.
- Validate completed designs: Check visual consistency, component behavior, responsive layout, interactive states, and file completeness.
- Maintain submission quality: Ensure recorded workflows and accompanying design files comply with project guidelines.
Your profile
- 5+ years of professional experience in UI/UX design, web design, digital interface design, product design, interaction design, or related creative work.
- Professional proficiency in Adobe XD, including artboards, components, component states, responsive resize, repeat grids, design assets, interactive prototypes, and design specifications.
- Professional background as a UI/UX designer, product designer, web and digital interface designer, interaction designer, or related creative specialist is preferred.
- Strong understanding of visual hierarchy, typography, spacing, color systems, grid-based layouts, interface consistency, accessibility, and responsive design.
- Experience with interactive prototyping, component states, user flows, design systems, and developer handoff processes.
- Ability to diagnose interface-design problems, including inconsistent components, broken prototype interactions, responsive layout issues, and visual inconsistencies.
- Ability to develop realistic, challenging Adobe XD tasks based on actual web, mobile, and digital product design scenarios.
- Ability to prepare the required software environment, including a working Adobe XD installation, design documents, assets, fonts, components, and reference materials. Applicants must already have access to a usable Adobe XD environment.
- A shareable professional portfolio is required, demonstrating UI designs, mobile application screens, website interfaces, interactive prototypes, or professional digital product projects.
- Strong attention to detail when working with alignment, typography, components, spacing, responsive behavior, and interface accessibility.
- Comfortable using a computer, organizing project assets, and recording design workflows.
- Reliable, self-directed, and able to work independently in a remote contractor environment.
- English proficiency is not mandatory. Applicants from all language backgrounds are welcome.
- Experience with Figma, Sketch, or other UI/UX design software is an advantage but does not replace the Adobe XD requirement.
- Previous experience with design tutorials, workflow documentation, software demonstrations, or AI data training is a plus.

Common questions
Is SME Careers work ongoing or project-based?
It's project-based, and how long projects last varies. Good work gets you first pick of the next project.
Does SME Careers offer a path for advancement?
Yes. SME Careers publishes a career ladder: Data Trainer, then Quality Analyst, then QA Lead, then Project Manager. Steady, careful work moves you up.
Is AI training work the same as traditional consulting?
It's closer to teaching. You grade the AI's logic, correct its mistakes and write the expert reasoning it lacks, instead of producing work for a client.
Why do expert AI training roles pay well?
The model already knows the basics. It needs help with hard edge cases, the judgment calls a senior professional in the field gets right.
What does Design work look like for an Adobe XD Specialist?
You check AI answers to Design questions, correct their errors and write expert reasoning. As an Adobe XD Specialist, you're hired for that judgment, so hands-on Design experience matters.
What specific skills does this listing call for?
Mobile App Design, UI Design, Web Design, and Design Systems are named directly in the listing. If you don't have hands-on experience with these, expect the screening to test for them.
