About the Role:Synergy Business Innovation & Solutions, Inc. is seeking a highly qualified UI/UX specialist to support the United States Coast Guard (USCG). This role will bridge the gap between design and functionality, leading the end-to-end creation of user-centered application interfaces-from conducting user research and sketching wireframes to writing clean, production-ready front-end code. This role will work closely with a combined Agile team (developers, engineers, product owners) to turn complex requirements into intuitive, performant digital experiences.
Primary Responsibilities:- Design end-to-end user experiences - from research and information architecture through wireframes, interactive prototypes, and production-ready UI.
- Translate complex, data-heavy operational workflows into clear, efficient interfaces.
- Create and maintain a shared design system and component library to ensure visual and interaction consistency across multiple applications.
- Partner with developers to ensure designs are implemented faithfully, providing specs, assets, and design tokens that map cleanly to the frontend framework.
- Conduct user research and usability testing with client and end-user stakeholders, and incorporate findings into iterative design improvements.
- Gather, clarify, and document design requirements directly from clients and stakeholders.
- Participate in Agile/Scrum ceremonies and collaborate throughout the software development lifecycle.
Required Qualifications:- Demonstrate or talk through experience designing enterprise, operational, or otherwise data-dense applications.
- Proficiency with a modern design and prototyping tool such as Figma (preferred), Sketch, or Adobe XD.
- Strong foundation in interaction design, information architecture, and visual/UI design.
- Experience creating and maintaining design systems and reusable component libraries.
- Solid understanding of HTML, CSS, and responsive design principles, and the ability to communicate effectively with a development team.
- Experience conducting user research and usability testing.
- Familiarity with the software development lifecycle and Agile methodologies.
Preferred Qualifications:- Experience designing for Angular applications and familiarity with Angular Material or similar component frameworks.
- Ability to implement front-end designs directly (HTML/CSS/SCSS, and comfort working in Angular templates).
- Experience designing cross-platform desktop applications (Electron, Tauri, or similar) and an understanding of desktop-native interaction patterns.
- Experience designing geospatial, mapping, dashboard, or other complex data-visualization interfaces.
- Experience using AI-assisted design or prototyping tools in the workflow.
Education Requirements:- Required: Bachelors degree in a relevant field.
Citizenship & Clearance Requirements:- Required: with Public Trust
