Senior CX Designer: I’d first look to better understand the situation from all angles by going on-site to dealerships to understand the people that use the software (genchi genbutsu). I would create journey maps that outline the experiences of the users, look at usage data of the application, Provide wireframes or mockups that demonstrate your proposed solution. Following this I would explain how the new design addresses the issues identified in the user journey maps and how it aligns with myKaarma's customer experience goals.

  • Build and Refine: During prototyping and development, you will be responsible for designing the customer journey and user experience, producing wireframes, prototypes, and specifications.
  • Post-Launch: You will continue to analyze user experience data, advocating for enhancements based on feedback to ensure the product delivers a high-quality experience.


Other Core Responsibilities:

  • Leadership and Mentorship: Lead a team of customer experience designers by providing guidance, mentorship, and inspiration. Foster a creative and collaborative work environment.
  • Strategic Influence: Act as a customer advocate in strategic discussions, ensuring customer experience considerations are integrated into business decisions.
