This role owns the design work that turns complex legislative processes into interfaces that clerks, legislators, and legislative staff can use confidently under session-day pressure. The UX Designer will partner with Product Managers, Business Analysts, and React and .NET engineering teams to move from requirements and user research through wireframes, prototypes, and production-ready designs, while building and maintaining the design system that keeps our products consistent. The ideal candidate is a hands-on designer who is comfortable working directly with clients and developers, has strong opinions about accessibility and usability, and is eager to use AI-assisted design tools to move faster from idea to testable design., o Leverage existing wireframes from previous client engagements as a baseline and tailor them to new client specifications. o Design interactions and micro-interactions that hold up under the pace and pressure of legislative session work. o Present design concepts to stakeholders and incorporate feedback through successive iterations. 2. Design Systems & Developer Collaboration o Produce and maintain component libraries, design systems, design tokens, and documentation to ensure consistency across the product ecosystem. o Work closely with React and .NET developers to ensure designs are implementable; provide clear specifications, CSS and style guidance, and production-ready assets. o Extend and apply the Material UI component framework rather than reinventing patterns. o Advocate for accessibility, performance, and responsive design best practices throughout the delivery process. 3. Research, Usability Testing & Measurement o Conduct usability testing with legislative end users, gather feedback, and iterate on designs. o Measure UX outcomes using product analytics and qualitative research. o Partner with Business Analysts and Product Managers so requirements-gathering sessions translate cleanly into design direction. o Synthesize research findings into actionable design decisions and share them with product and delivery teams. 4. AI-Assisted Design & Productivity o Use Claude Design and other AI-assisted design tools to rapidly generate prototypes, mockups, and visual concepts, accelerating the path from idea to testable design. o Identify opportunities to bring AI into the design and documentation workflow, and share effective practices with the broader team. ## Related Videos - [Boost Productivity with AI: Figma & Playwright MCP Workflows - Aris Markogiannakis](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1768-boost-productivity-with-ai-figma-playwright-mcp-workflows-aris-markogiannakis) - [Watch Tests Go Brrrr! : Getting Started with Cypress in ReactJS](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/282-watch-tests-go-brrrr-getting-started-with-cypress-in-reactjs) - [The Resilience of the World Wide Web](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1281-the-resilience-of-the-world-wide-web) - [UX is a fullstack job!](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1020-ux-is-a-fullstack-job) - [Bridging the Gap](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/794-bridging-the-gap) - [Designing the Future of Human<>Agent Collaboration](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1447-designing-the-future-of-human-agent-collaboration) ## Related Articles - [The future is here: How artificial intelligence is influencing UX design](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/65-the-future-is-here-how-artificial-intelligence-is-influencing-ux-design) - [16 Best Free React UI Libraries in 2025](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/148-16-best-free-react-ui-libraries-in-2025) - [Dev Digest 133 - Back to Front](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/474-dev-digest-133-back-to-front) - [How Developers Can Focus on Maintaining Satisfaction With Accessibility](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/109-how-developers-can-focus-on-maintaining-satisfaction-with-accessibility) - [Top 5 Web Design Trends for 2023](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/155-top-5-web-design-trends-for-2023) - [Dev Digest 120 - Apple and peers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/455-dev-digest-120-apple-and-peers)
