Design Systems and Visual Consistency

  • Apply principles of color theory, typography, spacing, and grid systems to build aesthetically refined and cohesive user interfaces.
  • Collaborate with engineering and product teams to establish and evolve scalable design systems and reusable UI component libraries.
  • Advocate for accessibility best practices to guarantee our interfaces are usable and inclusive for all audiences.

Collaboration and Delivery

  • Partner with Product Managers to define technical and design requirements within an Agile/Scrum environment.
  • Work alongside back-end engineers to integrate RESTful APIs and ensure seamless front-end state management.
  • Participate in design critiques and code reviews, providing constructive feedback to maintain high-quality standards across both disciplines.

Requirements

  • U.S. citizenship
  • Current TS/SCI with agency-specific polygraph required for consideration
  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, or a related technical discipline (equivalent years of direct experience considered in lieu of a degree)

  • Modern Frameworks: Hands-on experience building web applications using React and Next.js.
  • UX/UI Design Foundation: Solid understanding of foundational visual design principles, including grid systems, responsive layouts, typography, and color theory.
  • Design and Discovery: Demonstrated experience conducting user research, developing user flows, and wireframing interface solutions.
  • Component-Driven Development: Experience creating reusable, component-based architectures that balance aesthetic fidelity with code performance.
  • Demonstrated Experience: Hands-on technical experience showcasing both design execution (case studies, wireframes, prototypes) and functional front-end code., * Design and Prototyping Tools: Advanced proficiency with industry-standard design tools such as Figma, Sketch, or Adobe XD.
  • Accessibility and Section 508: Understanding of WCAG 2.1/2.2 standards, semantic HTML, and ARIA attributes.
