The Senior UX designer will be responsible for gaining deep insight into our users' behaviors and needs through user research and product discovery. You will work closely with your product, design, and engineering peers to translate research insights into new product features while shaping the core UX from early concept to launch. Additionally, you will have opportunities to improve the usability and design of existing features, flows, and design system patterns.
Our product streamlines computer vision and empowers people across a multitude of industries to do amazing things. Although we don't require you to be a computer vision expert out of the gate, you will succeed in this role if you take a user-centered approach to design and have a deep interest in understanding and simplifying complex problems.

• Help refine the architecture, user interface, product features, and end-to-end experience for new features/functionality.
• Use Plainsight's set of established design and visual patterns to strengthen consistency across our product suite. When necessary, innovate and expand upon our core set of design system components.
• Partner closely with cross-functional teams of product managers, engineers, and marketers to help define business and feature requirements; analyze empirical data, usability findings, market research, and proven UX principles to justify and prioritize these requirements along with the product management team.
• Assess and optimize the effectiveness of new and existing features by leading and participating in user research and user testing sessions.
• Create, influence, and establish internal UX design pattern standards across different projects and initiatives.
• Conceptualize original ideas that bring simplicity and a seamless user experience to complex designs.
