At BI WORLDWIDE, we are committed to creating belongingness, where D&I is a priority. We invite you to join us as we continue to expand our culture of inclusivity, collaboration, and authenticity together.
We work a hybrid model (3 days in the office and 2 days work from home); this position is located in our Minneapolis Metro headquarters.
We're growing our UX practice by adding a Senior UX Designer to our Corporate Product Development team. This person will work alongside our current UX design lead (the primary/lead UX voice) partnering closely with product owners and application engineers to define and design features within our Figma design system. The role is senior enough to co-lead the practice and operate highly independently.
Responsibilities
- Partners with product owners early in the feature lifecycle to clarify problems, define scope, and shape solutions before they move into detailed design
- Designs engaging, intuitive, on-brand, functional user interfaces -- including flows, wireframes, and prototypes -- within the bounds of our Figma design system, which comprises three sub-design systems
- Bridges business concepts and technical feasibility with well-crafted designs, and guides developers to implement them faithfully
- Leads discussions between product owners, engineering, and other stakeholders to optimize usability, information architecture, and technical feasibility
- Helps the team get ahead on the backlog by proactively defining and de-risking upcoming features, rather than only reacting to what's next in the queue
- Writes and guides user stories and interprets them into designs
- Leads user testing sessions and grows our broader UX research practice
- Maintains, expands, and adapts our Figma design system and its sub-systems
- Champions accessibility and internationalization in every design
- Works in close partnership with our lead UX designer -- aligning to their vision and direction while co-leading initiatives and operating independently across your own areas of ownership
- Explains design solutions and rationale to a wide range of stakeholders
Knowledge, Skills and Abilities
Ensure an outstanding user experience, including reusability and consistency across products, while operating with a high degree of independence.
- Creative problem solver who can translate ambiguous business needs and product owner input into concrete, well-defined software interfaces
- Strong communication skills with business and technical partners -- listens well, grasps concepts at a fast pace, synthesizes business and technical input
- Comfortable co-leading design direction alongside another designer -- aligning to a shared vision while independently owning your own feature areas
- Working knowledge of UX research & testing methods (user interviews, usability testing, synthesis), with genuine interest in building out this practice (something we don't yet do)
- Fluent in Figma, with real experience designing within multi-part, component-based design systems
- Expertise in accessibility and internationalization best practices
- Avid adopter of new design tools and techniques, aware of industry trends
- Able to pivot based on feedback and changing business priorities
Education / Experience
- 6+ years' experience UX design experience, including senior level responsibility for defining and designing product features end-to-end
- Experience designing within a structured, component-based design system -- not just using one lightly
- Experience designing a modern, feature-rich SaaS or enterprise software product
- A portfolio that illustrates your approach to design, usability, and process -- not just final visuals
Base Salary Range: $115,000 to $135,000. The final salary and offer will be determined by the applicant's background, experience, and skills.
