• Experience acting as UX lead or owning UX direction on a project as an individual contributor.
• Ability to work in a small, senior team alongside product, architecture and delivery management roles.

Required skills

• User journey definition and mapping, using tools such as FigJam or Miro.

• Wireframes and interactive prototypes in Figma.
• Planning and running usability tests and applying findings to design.
• Nice to have: complex prototypes in Axure, card sorting and tree testing with Optimal Workshop, usability tests with Maze, UserTesting, Lookback or UsabilityHub, and familiarity with Jira and Confluence in Scrum delivery.
