User Experience Architect
The Opportunity:
You know that a good application is more than just the code, infrastructure, and a nice-looking interface, it’s the way it addresses a user’s needs.

We’re looking for someone creative like you to craft the ultimate user experience.
In this role, you’ll work closely with product managers to understand your clients’ vision and their users’ needs. You'll work across the team to set interface standards that are based in research and develop front-end templates and components that can be re-used. Your experience with user experience, interface design, and front-end development will help you advocate for the prioritizations of design-centered changes, refinements, and improvements, all the while keeping the end-user at the center of your work.
Join us. The world can’t wait.
