UX/IX Designer

Description

Leidos has an opportunity for a UX/IX Designer to support the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) Outcome-based Delivery and DevSecOps Services (ODOS) IV proposal and program. As part of the team, you will participate in solution development and technical demonstrations to support a winning proposal. This role will collaborate with multi-disciplinary teams to deliver Section 508-compliant, user-centered designs for enterprise applications. The designer will apply best practices in UX/IX research, prototyping, and design to ensure intuitive and accessible solutions for USCIS mission applications.

Primary Responsibilities:

• Participate in solution development and technical demonstrations to support a winning proposal.
• Design, prototype, and validate user interfaces for enterprise applications.
• Conduct generative and evaluative research to inform UX/IX design decisions.
• Collaborate with developers, engineers, and business analysts to ensure designs align with business and technical requirements.
• Develop and maintain style guides, patterns, and design artifacts for enterprise consistency.
• Ensure Section 508 compliance in all user interfaces and support Trusted Tester validation requirements.
• Utilize tools such as Figma, HTML, and CSS to build prototypes and support user testing.

At Leidos, we don't want someone who "fits the mold"-we want someone who melts it down and builds something better. This is a role for the restless, the over-caffeinated, the ones who ask, "what's next?" before the dust settles on "what's now."

If you're already scheming step 20 while everyone else is still debating step 2... good. You'll fit right in.
