Cover letter for UX Designer — Example & template

Dear hiring team,

I am writing with great interest regarding your open UX Designer position. With five years of experience designing B2B SaaS products, I bring a research-led approach and the systems-thinking your team is looking for.

In my current role, I led a discovery study with twenty enterprise users that surfaced a workflow assumption everyone in the team had been carrying for two years. We pivoted the upcoming release based on those findings, and the redesigned flow cut average task completion time by 40% while raising satisfaction scores significantly.

I work in Figma daily, run usability studies with Maze, and contribute to a shared design system that I helped extend with new accessibility tokens this year. My portfolio is linked in the header and walks through three case studies in detail.

Your product caught my attention because of its commitment to research-led design at scale.

Best regards,
[Your Name]
