Tech9 is looking for a top-notch UX designer to join our team! You'll need to have ability and experience in User Experience Design in Digital Product Design (yep, you might even call yourself a Product Designer). At Tech9 we work with a plethora of different digital products, all within the context of their own product life-cycle and pace. Designers are expected to adapt to the needs of clients and deliver on whatever product success calls for – research, sense-making, product planning, interaction design, and visual design. 

Your perspective and approach as a designer is what will determine if Tech9 is the right fit for you. Tech9 designers are leaders of their products and make important decisions for the success of product and the happiness of the users. They clearly communicate decisions and options to their team. They site data or research to inform directions. They communicate in clear and helpful ways, and proactively solve problems. Put simply; they design great things! That’s part of what makes working here so rewarding; you are the main person in the driver’s seat, steering what actually ends up in front of users! Along the way, Tech9 designers have an inclusive mindset and can juggle other's perspectives along with their own. As a part of our team, your process should be replicable, teachable, and adaptable.
