A UI (user interface) designer is responsible for creating the visual design and layout of digital products, such as websites and mobile applications. 

This includes designing the layout, color scheme, typography, and other visual elements of a product, as well as creating icons, buttons, and other interactive elements.

UI designers work closely with UX designers to ensure that the visual design supports and enhances the overall user experience. They also collaborate with developers to ensure that the design is technically feasible and can be implemented within the constraints of the platform.

UI designers typically use design and prototyping tools such as Sketch, Adobe XD, and InVision to create wireframes, mockups, and high-fidelity prototypes of their designs.
