About The Position

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.

You’ll be involved with the full spectrum of the digital creative process, including user research, information architecture, wireframing, rapid prototyping, interface design, and front-end development. You’ll advocate for the prioritizations of design-centered changes, refinements, and improvements, all the while keeping the end-user at the center of your work.
