  • Capture user needs and partner requirements via research.
  • Rapidly iterate on design ideas and validate with users.
  • Provide detailed wireframes, clickable prototypes, and accompanying specs to implementation teams.
  • Proactively seek feedback from senior designers to ensure your designs are as polished as they can be.
  • Help govern the quality of our software by closely following and evangelizing our standards.
  • Collaborate within the UX team to help define and better our practice.
  • Work autonomously, efficiently, and with a positive personality.
Requirements

  • 5+ years of UX design experience, creating and evolving software design for digital products and platforms.
  • BFA degree in HCI or a related field.
Work Samples
  • Portfolio samples that show deep UX thinking and sophisticated problem solving.
  • Candidates who proceed to in-person interviews will be required to perform a small UX design exercise, which they will then present to the team.

  • Application design, with a deep knowledge of standard UX methodologies.
  • Communication, with a proven ability to work with product and engineering to see designs accurately realized.
  • Public presentation to groups.
  • Performing your own research when required, particularly contextual inquiry to understand user journeys and basic usability testing for validation.
  • Figma and Axure for wireframing and prototyping.
  • Quickly learning new concepts and moving decisively on what you've learned.
  • Collaboration with a low-ego approach to finding the best possible solutions.
Design Experience with the Following Is a Plus, but Not Required:
  • B2B offerings.
  • Enterprise desktop software.
  • Enterprise financial software.

To help you stay energized, engaged and inspired, we offer a wide range of employee benefits including: retirement investment and tools designed to help you in building a sound financial future; access to education reimbursement; comprehensive resources to support your physical health and emotional well-being; family support programs; and Flexible Time Off (FTO) so you can relax, recharge and be there for the people you care about.
