Experience Design Senior Associate - Agentic

Shape the future of employee experience by contributing to the design of agentic AI and adaptive digital experiences, empowering over 320,000+ employees to enhance their productivity and growth.

As an Experience Design Associate within the Employee Experience Design team, you will support the creation of AI-driven, adaptive user experiences that respond to user intent and evolving needs across self-service journeys. Drawing on strong expertise in experience design principles, interaction design, and research practices, you will partner closely with product, engineering, and research to deliver clear, scalable, and user-centered solutions, often working in parallel with engineering from concept through build.

 Your work will focus on small to large-sized features and end-to-end journeys, with a hand in shaping a growing agentic design system and defining how systems respond across varied user inputs and scenarios. At the Senior Associate level, you are expected to work independently, lead design decisions from ambiguous problems through delivery, elevate the team's craft, and help evolve adaptive, conversational, and UI-driven interaction patterns that create consistent and intuitive employee experiences.

Job responsibilities

• Lead the design and delivery of user experiences for small to large-sized features, features and end-to-end journeys, balancing user needs, business goals, and design standards.

• Own response mapping for your feature areas, defining system behavior across user inputs, edge cases, failure states, and handoffs between conversational and UI-based interactions.

• Design user flows, wireframes, prototypes, and high-fidelity interfaces that support intuitive and scalable self-service experiences.

• Set and uphold a high bar for interaction and visual craft, including motion and transitions, and ensure it carries through to what ships.
