Senior User Experience Designer

Expected Hours of Work: Monday through Friday, normal business hours. Travel: Occasional travel to company headquarters for conference/workshops About the Role The Mid-Sr. Designer for Global Navigation and Search supports the Unified Experience (UE) Core portfolio. Operating as a flexible individual contributor, this role shifts dynamically between Global Navigation and Search initiatives based on evolving business priorities and product capacity. The position balances high-fidelity visual execution with strategic UX problem-solving, maintaining connective cohesion across primary user journeys and actively contributing reusable navigation and search patterns back into the global design system. Responsibilities Deliver end-to-end user experience and visual design solutions for Global Navigation and Search surfaces based on priorities set by UE Core leadership. Transition fluidly between navigation and search workstreams as team capacity and business needs shift, rather than managing a single fixed digital property. Collaborate closely with respective surface design leads on complex UX challenges, interface architecture, and visual craft. Maintain cross-surface visual and interaction consistency between navigation and search components, preserving their shared connective role across the user journey. Partner with the design system team in a contribution-based model to feed search- and navigation-specific UI patterns, components, and documentation back into the design system. Ramp up rapidly on existing research, context, and technical constraints when shifting between workstreams. Qualifications Required Skills 3–6+ years of digital product design experience (UI/UX) across enterprise, complex web applications, or large-scale digital ecosystems. Proven experience working within context-shifting or embedded agency/consulting models where priorities evolve rapidly. Demonstrated experience contributing directly to component-based design systems and shared pattern libraries. Professional verbal and written English communication skills. Ability to articulate complex design decisions clearly to non-design executives, engineering leads, and business stakeholders. High comfort level with ambiguity, shifting team priorities, and rapid context-switching. Demonstrated capability to quickly absorb context, domain logic, and user requirements when entering new workstreams. Proficiency with modern design and prototyping tools (e.g., Figma). Experience operating within a collaborative, contribution-based design system workflow. Preferred Skills Preferred: Prior experience designing enterprise search interfaces, discovery experiences, or global header/footer navigation structures at scale. Familiarity with complex digital ecosystem implementations within healthcare, life sciences, or regulated enterprise environments. Understanding of accessibility standards (WCAG 2.1 AA) and modular content structures. #J-18808-Ljbffr Advantage Technical
