About The Position

This role supports work across Elevate Quantum employer communities, CDLE, Connecting Colorado, Colorado Thrives, and other partners shaping quantum and quantum-adjacent talent pathways across Colorado and the Mountain West. The strategy, content models, and Jobs/Skills and Educator Matrices are being developed by project leads. Your role is to own the experience layer: turning existing information architecture, employer trend data, and pathway content into accessible, usable, and visually compelling digital products that help partners see, navigate, and act on complex workforce information.

Requirements

• Product-minded designer who likes working at the intersection of UI design, information architecture, and visual communication.
• Ability to take structured but complex content and turn it into digital experiences that feel clear, useful, and human.
• Experience in designing data-rich or information-dense interfaces, internal tools, dashboards, portals, or resource hubs.
• Experience organizing complex content for non-technical audiences without flattening the nuance.
• Experience collaborating with product, implementation, program, employer, education, or public-sector partners to move from concept to usable output.
• Energized by turning important, complex content into clean and useful digital experiences.

Nice To Haves

• Interest in workforce innovation, skills-based pathways, emerging technology ecosystems, and public–private collaboration.
• You do not need to be a quantum expert.

Responsibilities

• Turn existing information architecture into intuitive digital layouts and flows that help users explore roles, skills, pathways, and employer trends in the quantum and quantum-adjacent workforce.
• Design screens, views, and artifacts such as layouts, tables, cards, comparisons, pathway views, simple dashboards, and diagrams that make dense information easier to scan and understand.
• Create visual treatments of employer and workforce trends so patterns and insights are clearer to employers, educators, workforce teams, and other stakeholders.
• Design with implementation in mind, producing assets and specifications that can be adapted across workforce tools, shared communications, and partner-facing resources.
• Iterate quickly based on feedback from Elevate Quantum partners, employer communities, public-sector stakeholders, and education and workforce collaborators.
• Capture reusable patterns and simple standards so future phases can build from a coherent design system rather than starting over.
