  • Bachelor’s degree in design, Technology, Human-Computer Interaction, or a related field.
  • UX certifications from Nielsen Norman Group, Google, or IxDF are a plus.
  • Experience designing for B2B or enterprise platforms is a bonus but not required.
  • Proficiency with industry-standard design tools such as Figma, with strong attention to detail and a keen eye for design consistency.
  • Creative problem-solving skills, with the ability to balance user, business, and technical needs.
  • A collaborative mindset, able to work effectively within teams while also being comfortable working independently.
  • A strong understanding of accessibility best practices and how to design inclusive experiences.
  • Familiarity with agile and lean UX methodologies is a plus.
  • Excellent communication and presentation skills, with the ability to articulate design decisions and rationale.
  • A passion for crafting intuitive, engaging experiences that make products more enjoyable and efficient for users.
  • A portfolio that showcases your UX process, from research and problem definition to design solutions and final outcomes.

Additional Details:

  • This role is based in New York; candidates must be located in or willing to relocate to the area.
  • We are not offering sponsorship at this time; candidates must be authorized to work in the U.S. without sponsorship.

This role is ideal for designers who are eager to grow, take on new challenges, and thrive in a highly collaborative environment. If you’re passionate about user experience and want to make a real impact alongside a strong product, design, and engineering team, we’d love to hear from you!
