UX Designer, Senior

Job Description

UX Designer, Senior

The Challenge:

Are you looking for an opportunity to transform the way a user interacts with web applications? You know that a good site is more than just the code, infrastructure, and a nice-looking interface – it’s the way it addresses a user’s needs. As an Experience Designer, you’ll have the chance to put yourself in the user’s place and design the best way for them to engage with the site. We’re looking for someone creative like you to craft the ultimate user experience.

In this role, you’ll work closely with the product manager on your team to understand your clients’ vision and their users’ needs. Working on an Agile team, you’ll build skills in designing large-scale digital experiences that are as intuitive as they are aesthetically pleasing. You’ll be involved with the full spectrum of the digital creative process, including user research, information architecture, wireframing, interface design, and front-end development. Your experience with user research, wireframing, interface design, and front-end development will help you advocate for the prioritizations of design-centered changes, refinements, and improvements, all the while keeping the end-user at the center of your work. This position is open to remote delivery from any location in the U.S., to include the District of Columbia.
