Senior Product / UX Designer – Job Description

Our client is looking for a senior, hands-on Product / UX Designer to turn existing product strategy, research, requirements, and design direction into digital experiences that are ready to build. This is an individual contributor role that needs both detailed production work and strong design problem-solving. You’ll tie design decisions back to product strategy and give practical best-practice guidance all the way through delivery.

What You’ll Do

• Work independently to turn product strategy, user research, business requirements, and design direction into clear, build-ready experiences
• Create interaction models, information architecture, user flows, wireframes, visual designs, and high-fidelity prototypes
• Design responsive web and/or mobile experiences across screen sizes, breakpoints, and interaction states
• Use and contribute to the design system, reusable components, patterns, and shared libraries
• Design past the happy path: error, empty, loading, validation, and other edge-case states
• Apply accessibility and inclusive-design practices in your everyday work
• Work directly with engineering through handoff, implementation questions, iteration, and design QA
• Document design decisions, specs, and rationale so teams build what was intended
• Make sound design calls on your own, and escalate decisions with broader product or strategy impact
• Recommend improvements to usability, consistency, accessibility, and delivery outcomes

Required Skills

• Senior-level product or UX design experience delivering complex digital products as a hands-on individual contributor
• Strong interaction design, information architecture, user flows, wireframing, visual design, and prototyping
• Responsive web and/or mobile design across devices, screen sizes, and interaction states
• Experience working in and contributing to design systems and component libraries
• Strong working knowledge of accessibility standards (WCAG 2.1/2.2 AA) and inclusive design
• Figma (must have); Microsoft 365
• Close collaboration with product, research, and engineering through implementation and design QA
• Strong written and verbal communication, including design documentation and presenting rationale

Preferred

• Healthcare, digital front door, search and navigation, scheduling, or consumer digital experience
• Other complex, high-traffic product experience

Thanks,

Vinod.
