Employment Type
Contract-to-Full-Time Hire

We are looking for a Senior UX/UI Designer to help us create digital experiences that make technology easier, faster, and more human.

In this role, you’ll partner closely with researchers, strategists, developers, product managers, AI practitioners, and fellow designers to uncover opportunities, solve complex problems, and create experiences that balance user needs with business goals.

You’ll contribute across the entire design process, from discovery and research through concept development, design execution, validation, and delivery. We’re looking for someone who is naturally curious, collaborative, and excited about how AI is transforming research, design, product development, and the way teams solve problems.

This role is structured as a contract-to-hire opportunity. We require two days onsite per week, either at a client site or in our Nimbl office, to ensure strong collaboration and alignment with our teams and partners.
