UX Experience Architect
UX Experience Architect – Juno Beach, FL – Human-Centered Design Experience Architect
Our client is seeking a Human-Centered Design (HCD) Experience Architect who blends strategic vision with hands-on execution. You will help shape where digital experiences are headed—roadmaps, strategic research, stakeholder alignment—while also driving the practical work that makes them delightful and usable through research synthesis, usability testing, and design reviews.
You will partner closely with business stakeholders, designers, and software development teams to ensure user needs, business goals, and technical realities stay aligned. Some days that looks like leading research and shaping an experience roadmap; other days it is reviewing designs, running usability tests, or synthesizing findings so teams can act.
This role is best suited for someone who is confident in their craft, curious by nature, and comfortable navigating ambiguity without needing everything perfectly defined.
Key Responsibilities
- Conduct ongoing user research to inform experience priorities and product direction.
- Develop and evolve personas, journey maps, and experience frameworks that guide decision-making.
- Support experience roadmaps by connecting user insight, business value, and delivery realities.
- Plan and facilitate usability testing, design reviews, and feedback sessions.
- Conduct qualitative and quantitative research and synthesize insights into clear recommendations.
- Identify experience challenges, uncover root causes, and propose practical solutions.
- Translate insights into artifacts and guidance that teams can actually use.
- Act as a connector between business, design, and development—reducing friction and increasing clarity.
- Explore and pilot new tools and workflows—including AI-enabled research or design support—to improve efficiency and quality.
Required Qualifications
- Bachelor's degree in UX, Design, Human-Computer Interaction, Digital Strategy, Business, or a related field—or equivalent professional experience demonstrating strong human-centered design practice.
- 5+ years of experience in UX, digital strategy, product design, or human-centered research roles.
- Solid grounding in Human-Centered Design principles, research methods, and experience synthesis.
- Experience supporting both strategic initiatives and hands-on delivery work.
- Comfortable working within cross-functional, delivery-oriented teams.
- Working proficiency with Figma for collaborative design and design reviews.
- Familiarity with Jira (or similar tools) and working within agile, sprint-based teams.
- Working knowledge of AI-powered tools used in design, research, or synthesis—and a willingness to experiment and learn as the space evolves.
