  • Collaborate with subject matter experts, engineers, designers, and cross-functional teams to ensure design solutions meet strategic objectives and user needs.
  • Develop and maintain UX documentation such as service blueprints, journey maps, wireframes, and high-fidelity mockups.
Requirements:
  • 5+ years of experience in UX design or related field with a focus on complex systems or products.
  • Proven ability to translate technical and domain-specific information into narratives, conops, and feature definitions.
  • Demonstrated ability to lead user research and apply insights to design impactful user experiences.
  • Experience in conducting research, synthesis, and driving product roadmap creation.
  • Proficiency with design and prototyping tools (e.g., Figma).
  • Ability to articulate user experience concepts and prototypes to stakeholders and team members effectively.
  • Capacity to work in a fast-paced environment, balancing multiple projects and priorities.
  • Willingness to travel as needed to engage with users and stakeholders (up to 25%).
  • Eligibility to obtain and maintain a U.S. TS clearance.
Preferred Qualifications:
  • Demonstrated aptitude across a broad range of product types (internal tools, customer-facing applications, tools for technical customers).
  • Experience in defense, aerospace, or other related fields, with an insight into the operational context of the users.
  • A strong portfolio that demonstrates design thinking, problem-solving, and user-centric solutions.
  • Strong facilitation skills, with the ability to lead interactive planning and decomposition sessions.
  • Self-starter with the ability to successfully navigate through ambiguity and loosely defined organizational structures.
