Senior UX Designer
The Role
We are looking for a versatile Senior UX Designer to join our growing design team. Our designers contribute to clients’ projects at all stages of development. We might start from scratch, conducting user and stakeholder interviews, making personas and journey maps, and continue on to iterating on designs and prototypes through delivering final assets for launch. We might come into the middle of an in-flight program-size project and conduct analysis and usability correction or feature enhancement. We might provide research and vision for handoff to an internal development team.
The ideal candidate must be able to both fly solo on spinning up a project and drive a small collaborative team’s experience design on an in-development project. We value user-centered design, iterative processes, research validation, elegant experiences, and detail-oriented craftsmanship.
