UX Designer

Role: UX Designer

Location: Greenwood Village, CO

Job Type: Contract

Duration: 12 Months

Description:

• Client is currently seeking a strategic, user-experience-minded Product Designer to join one of our largest and most forward-thinking clients.  
• This role isn't about pixel-pushing or simply making things look good-we're looking for someone who can solve business problems through thoughtful experience design, bring structure to complexity, and collaborate closely across product and engineering teams.
• You'll be working inside a mature design system, so visual polish is less important than critical thinking, storytelling, and applying smart UX strategy.
• This is a high-impact role where your work will directly affect millions of users across digital products, services, and platforms.

Responsibilities:

• Work directly with product owners, developers, and other stakeholders to define user flows, wireframes, and journey maps that align with both user needs and business goals
• Apply and evolve existing design systems and patterns-this role is not about reinventing the wheel, but making sure the right wheels are used in the right way
• Use Figma to create and iterate on designs, from low-fidelity flows to high-fidelity prototypes
• Help connect the dots between product strategy and UX execution-you're not just a designer, you're a thought partner
• Bring a data-informed approach to decision-making, thinking about both qualitative and quantitative impact
• Help level up the team's strategic capabilities by showing how design can drive business value-not just aesthetics
• Collaborate in a team-first culture, where success is measured collectively and designers are integrated into the product lifecycle-not an afterthought

Requirements:

• Corporate, in-house experience - worked on large-scale digital products-not just agency sprints or freelance gigs
• A strategic UX thinker who can ask the right questions, challenge assumptions, and propose experience-led solutions
• Strong skills in wireframing, user flows, and prototyping-you know how to visualize ideas quickly and clearly
• Proficiency in Figma is a must
• Experience working within and contributing to a design system
• A storyteller who can walk stakeholders through the -why- behind design decisions-what business problem was solved, what user need was met
• A team player who thrives in collaborative environments, not someone looking to work in a silo
• Comfortable going toe-to-toe with product owners and engineers, advocating for the user while understanding constraints.
