• Collaborate with cross-functional teams—including product managers, developers, content strategists, and UX leads—to align on goals, constraints, and implementation strategies.
• Communicate design rationale clearly in design reviews and stakeholder presentations, advocating for user needs and business impact.
• Participate in agile ceremonies and workflows, providing design assets, specifications, and feedback throughout the development lifecycle.
• Support usability testing and review behavioral analytics to validate and optimize design performance.
• Maintain detailed design specifications and partner with developers to ensure accurate implementation, including involvement in user acceptance testing.
• Stay current with UX trends, tools, and technologies, and contribute to evolving team processes and design practices.
• Manage time effectively by estimating effort, planning schedules, and prioritizing tasks within sprint cycles.
• Use general-purpose LLM tools to analyze and synthesize user behavior, identify patterns, and prioritize opportunities.
• Use AI to accelerate discovery, experimentation, development, and recommend improvements.

Requirements

• 2+ years of relevant experience designing responsive web and mobile applications, with a portfolio demonstrating thoughtful UX solutions.
• Advanced proficiency in Figma and familiarity with prototyping tools and AI-assisted design workflows.
• Strong understanding of user-centered design principles and accessibility standards.
• Experience conducting user research and translating insights into actionable design decisions.
