Requirements

• Demonstrated experience across UX research, interaction design, and visual design (portfolio or work samples required)
• Experience designing and researching UX appropriate for children, teens, and families (age-appropriate methods, assent/consent, safeguarding)
• Fluency with standard research methods and knowing when to use which
• Ability to work independently and translate ambiguity into structured deliverables
• Ability to execute visual design within an established design system, producing polished, on-brand screens
• Proficiency in Figma, including working with components and design systems (flows, wireframes, and higher-fidelity screens)
• Comfortable working in a remote, cross-functional team
• 5+ years experience

Strong Pluses
