Senior UX Designer

Location: Seattle, WA -(Day 1 onsite) (In-person interview be required, so only considering locals)

Job Type: Contract 12+ Months (C2C/W2)

Total Experience: 12+ Years

Project Description:
  • Are you driven by innovation? Creative? Passionate about design? And maybe embody that special something that helps to continue to build our culture? Well, you've come to the right place.
  • We follow a simple but vital premise: "Focus on the user and all else will follow." Our Product Designers take complex tasks and make them intuitive and easy-to-use for every client that approaches us with possibilities just waiting to be solved. Throughout the design process-from creating user flows and wireframes to building user interface mockups and prototypes-you'll re-envision the art of the possible and bring that vision to life in a way that feels inspired, refined, and even magical.
  • We care deeply about the people who create designs as much as the users who interact with them. We collaborate closely with each other and across teams to create industry-leading experiences that deliver value for our B2B/B2C business partners, resulting in lasting relationships.
  • Our client is looking for a Senior Product Designer to help them update their legacy Data Portal into something more bespoke and modern.
  • This Data Portal manages all the metadata for their systems and it's not as curated or simplified as it needs to be.
  • The ideal candidate for this role is a unique individual that is comfortable both navigating and owning different responsibilities within the Product Design process from ideation to concept to delivery.
  • This person would be critical to aligning how the client's different Departments can be curated to become a more intuitive and motivational experience vs what exists today while acting as a subject matter expert when it comes to data visualization and design.
    For New York City compensation is up to 140000 USD Gross per year.

  • Help refine the existing requirements into stories and deliveries that meet the goals of the engagement with the collaboration of the product owners and users.
  • Conduct user research and testing methods to help define and refine the new product while aiming towards an MVP.
  • Help generate feature flows, site maps, flow diagrams, and other UX deliverables.
  • Create artifacts, prototypes, and specs that enable developers to implement features efficiently. i.e., redlining, design language systems, documentation, visual QA, etc.
  • Interpret & align with key stakeholders on the Design System currently in use and identify areas of improvement & accessibility opportunities.
  • Present your designs to senior management for feedback and approval in the form of low & high fidelity screens within rapid/visual prototypes.
