UX Strategist

The Opportunity:

Are you looking to transform the way a user interacts with applications and data science solutions? You know that a good system 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 develop the ultimate user experience (UX).

Your experience with information architecture, interface design, and product implementation and development will help you advocate for the prioritizations of design-centered changes, refinements, and improvements while keeping the end-user at the center of your work.
