The resource must be comfortable leading design end-to-end — from discovery through delivery — while collaborating with product managers, engineers, and cross-functional stakeholders.

Key Responsibilities

  • End-to-end product design across web and mobile — user flows, wireframes, high-fidelity mocks, interactive prototypes, and design specs
  • Figma expertise required; ability to work within and contribute to an established component-based design system (Angular Material / Topaz)
  • Accessibility compliance (WCAG) and responsive design embedded throughout all work
  • Design QA and implementation support working directly with engineering squads
  • Workshop facilitation — journey mapping, persona definition, cross-team alignment sessions
  • AI-assisted design workflows and familiarity with conversational or data-driven interface patterns

UX RESEARCH CAPABILITIES (REQUIRED)

  • Discovery research — generative studies, contextual inquiry, stakeholder interviews, and competitive analysis to frame problem spaces
  • Research analysis & synthesis — translating findings into actionable insights, personas, journey maps, and design hypotheses
  • Usability testing — planning, recruiting, facilitating, and reporting on moderated and unmoderated usability studies
  • Ongoing UXR operations — maintaining a research cadence alongside active design delivery, integrating findings into sprint cycles

Skill Requirements

SKILLS & EXPERIENCE

  • 10+ years of professional UX/UI design experience with a strong portfolio demonstrating end-to-end product thinking
  • Proven UXR practice — not just research familiarity but hands-on ability to run the full research lifecycle
  • Experience in enterprise, education, or SaaS environments; familiarity with Agile/Jira workflows
  • Strong stakeholder communication — able to present and defend design decisions confidently at senior levels
  • Desirable: background in edtech, front-end concepts (Angular/React/HTML/CSS), or designing for multi-persona global platforms
