Dear Hiring Team at Cobalt Labs,
I am writing to express my strong interest in the Senior UX Designer position at Cobalt Labs Inc. I have seven years of UX design experience, the past three of which I have spent as a Lead Designer at Meridian Tech, where I oversaw the redesign of a B2B logistics portal serving over 40,000 users.
In that role, I led a small team of designers, conducted quarterly usability studies, and presented design strategies directly to the executive team. I have deep proficiency in Figma and have used UserTesting for remote usability studies for the past two years.
While I do not have direct experience with supply chain software beyond logistics portal work, I have a proven track record of quickly mastering new domain contexts through structured user research.
I would be delighted to bring my skills to the LogiDesk redesign project. My portfolio is available at annakovacs-ux.com, and I have attached my résumé.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Anna Kovacs
