Interaction Designer
We are seeking an Interaction Designer to design enterprise business applications that meet business owner’s and end-user’s needs. In this role, you should be an analytical and creative interaction designer who is able to grasp user needs and solve problems quickly based on concentrated information received in short durations such as 5-day Design Sprints or 2-day Innovation Sprints. You should possess the ability to comprehend business requirements and technical limitations, as well as the ability to take data from user research and translate it into sitemaps, user flows, customer journey maps, wireframes, mockups and prototypes. A deep understanding of contemporary user-centered design methodologies, enterprise software, and working with complex experiences is a requirement. Success in the role requires an innovative mind, good leadership skills, and a passion for creating user interfaces that provides an exceptional user experience. Individuals in this role must be user-focused, analytical, highly creative, and have strong verbal and written communication skills. A strong portfolio of successful Interaction Designer/UX projects is essential.

Make strategic design and user-experience decisions related to customer vision and priorities.
Work effectively in a team setting including synthesizing abstract ideas into concrete design implications, and articulating design decisions back to client and team.

Design and deliver wireframes, user stories, user journeys, and mockups optimized for a wide range of devices and interfaces.
