About The Position

Savvas Learning Company is a global education company that produces award-winning learning solutions that empower educators and engage students with the highest quality content.
Recognized as an industry leader, we serve millions of K-12 learners with innovative, student-centered educational programs that turn today’s classrooms into active learning environments. By embracing technology, personalized learning, and immersive experiences delivered across multiple platforms, we design our learning solutions to be more accessible and relevant to each student.
Our award-winning, high-quality instructional materials span every grade level and discipline, from evidence-based, standards-aligned core curricula and supplemental and intervention programs to state-of-the-art assessment tools and the industry’s most innovative portfolio of college and career readiness solutions — all designed to meet the needs of every learner.
We are seeking a Principal UX Designer to lead experience design for complex reporting, data visualization, and learning analytics experiences across our K–12 educational technology platforms. This role will also serve as a senior leader in evolving and optimizing our mature design system.
This is not a component-consumer role. We are looking for someone who has built, scaled, and governed design systems in mature product environments — and who understands how system thinking elevates reporting, dashboards, and AI-driven insights at scale.
You will work at the intersection of product strategy, AI innovation, analytics, and scalable design infrastructure — translating complex educational data into intuitive, actionable experiences for educators and administrators.

• Deep expertise in data visualization and dashboard design
• Demonstrated experience designing complex administrative or analytics tools

• Experience creating components, not just consuming them
• Strong understanding of:
• Design tokens
• Accessibility (WCAG)
• Interaction modeling
• Responsive and scalable layout systems
• Data visualization best practices
• Experience partnering directly with engineering to ensure system fidelity

Nice To Haves

• Experience in EdTech, SaaS, enterprise platforms, or analytics-heavy products
• Experience designing for educators, administrators, or institutional users
• Familiarity with learning analytics or student performance reporting
• Experience working in multi-product ecosystems
• Experience leading cross-functional design reviews and governance

Responsibilities

• Reporting & Data Visualization Strategy
