We are seeking a Sr. Digital Experience Designer with a strong background in consumer-facing UX/UI, visual design, and digital marketing experiences. Ideal candidates will come from advertising agencies, marketing agencies, or consumer brands and have experience creating engaging websites, applications, and digital experiences from concept through launch.

Responsibilities:

Experience Strategy and UX/UI Design

• Work on the end-to-end front-end experience for websites, applications, responsive and adaptive experiences and other connected digital touchpoints.
• Translate consumer needs, business requirements, brand objectives and content priorities into intuitive journeys, information architecture, interaction patterns and polished user interfaces.
• Create user flows, journey maps, wireframes, prototypes, page layouts and high-fidelity designs that clearly communicate experience and design intent as needed.
• Apply consumer empathy, research, analytics, KPIs and behavioral signals to identify opportunities, validate design decisions and continuously improve the experience.
• Rapidly iterate from concept through design handoff, balancing usability, visual quality, brand consistency, technical feasibility and speed to market.

Content and Visual Design

• Bring a strong content design mindset to digital experiences, shaping page hierarchy, messaging flow, calls to action, labels and supporting content so consumers can quickly understand and act.
• Apply graphic design principles, including composition, typography, color, imagery and visual storytelling, to create compelling and cohesive digital experiences.
• Partner with marketing and creative teams to translate campaign concepts, marketing materials and brand assets into effective digital-first journeys.
• Assess the quality and fit of content and creative assets within the experience, recommending edits, adaptations or new approaches when needed.
• Ensure that UX, content and visual design decisions reinforce one another rather than operating as separate workstreams.

Cross-Functional Work and Delivery

• Serve as a design team member across product, marketing, content, creative and development teams, championing consumer-centered problem solving.
• Utilize digital design standards, reusable patterns and experience guidelines, and support consistent adoption across teams and touchpoints.
• Collaborate with Product Owners, developers, marketers, content strategists and other partners to define visuals and content needs and product content priorities.
• Communicate effectively with digital product team members; understand front-end constraints and critical paths, and incorporate technical considerations into UX planning.
• Provide design support throughout development and execution, including design reviews and quality assurance for layout, responsive behavior, typography, interactions, accessibility and overall design integrity.

Qualifications:

• Online portfolio showing UX/UI, digital product and visual or content-led design work.
• BA, BFA or equivalent experience in UX/UI design, interaction design, visual communication, graphic design, digital design or a related field.
• 5 or more years of experience in UX/UI, product design, digital design, experience design or a related discipline.
• Experience designing within front-end experiences for websites and applications across responsive breakpoints.
• Experience creating both UX deliverables and polished visual design, with a portfolio demonstrating strength in interaction, interface, content hierarchy and graphic design.
• Experience working in Agile Scrum, Lean Kanban or comparable cross-functional product delivery environments.
• Experience contributing to both small and large initiatives from concept through launch and optimization.

Skills:

• Strong working knowledge of Figma and Adobe Creative Cloud tools.
• Demonstrated experience in user-centered design, interaction design, information architecture, prototyping, responsive design and design systems.
• Strong visual design capabilities, including typography, layout, color, imagery, composition and brand application.
• Ability to evaluate and shape content hierarchy, messaging flow, calls to action and microcopy in partnership with content and marketing teams.
• Working knowledge of accessibility and inclusive design principles for digital experiences.
• Working knowledge of HTML and CSS, with an understanding of front-end development practices and constraints.
• Ability to connect consumer insights and data with pragmatic, structured design decisions.
• Clear communication, facilitation and presentation skills, with the ability to explain design rationale to technical and non-technical audiences.
• Highly organized and able to work autonomously, manage competing priorities and deliver within tight deadlines.
• Collaborative, pragmatic and open-minded, with a shared-ownership approach to team success. Passion for technology, digital products, consumer experience and the evolving relationship between UX, content and brand design.
