ZenPoint Solutions LLC (“ZenPoint Solutions”) is a rapidly expanding Information Technology (IT) services company in the federal sector. We foster a thriving, ambitious work environment that prioritizes employee well-being and a positive company culture. We invite you to join our team and help us shape a dynamic future as we deliver innovative solutions to address the nation's most critical IT missions. Clearance Requirement: None required at the time of application, though Public Trust or higher is preferred. Candidates must be eligible to receive and maintain a Public Trust. Work Location: Huntsville, AL Work Schedule (Onsite): Onsite 5 days a week (M-F) with core working hours of 9am-3pm Central Time. Position Overview: ZenPoint Solutions is seeking a creative and highly analytical User Interface and User Experience (UI/UX) Designer to support a federal law enforcement agency’s major enterprise software modernization initiative. In this role, you will own the look and feel of a modernized application, zeroing in on the underlying emotional and functional needs of users to deliver intuitive, satisfying, and deeply user-centric digital experiences. As part of a responsive, device-agnostic application team, you will craft high-fidelity wireframes, templates, and portal layouts using standard toolsets like Adobe XD. This role requires close collaboration with technical architects, product owners, and end-users to transition legacy workflows into a modern, streamlined Full Operating Capability (FOC). This position is contingent upon the successful award of a government contract and subsequent government approval. Key Responsibilities: User-Centric Design Execution: Create compelling and satisfying application interface designs by applying recognized usability heuristics, prioritizing consistency, error prevention, feedback transparency, and minimalist aesthetics.
Wireframing & Prototyping: Develop detailed front-end user interface mockups, wireframes, site themes, and reusable layout templates within Adobe XD prior to active software development phases.
Persona & Workflow Mapping: Utilize findings from user research and functional workflow analyses to align interface designs with defined target roles, personas, and distinct real-world usage contexts.
Architectural Collaboration: Partner directly with system and solution architects to break down business requirements into front-end mockups that are both highly functional and aesthetically pleasing.
Usability Testing & Tracking: Execute frequent, lightweight usability testing methods alongside users or operational proxies to expose design friction early, tracking and rectifying issues within a structured Usability Findings Log.
Feedback Validation: Validate ongoing front-end builds through continuous feedback loops with the Product Owner and system stakeholders, evaluating task success rates and experience metrics.
Accessibility Compliance: Design interface elements that conform entirely with Section 508 accessibility standards, actively reinforcing keyboard navigation capabilities, screen reader compatibility, and contrast requirements.
Field Research Travel: Participate in occasional team travel to meet with users in life-like training environments to gather live operational feedback and directly iterate on real-world workflow challenges. Required Qualifications:
Candidate must be a United States Citizen and present proof of Citizenship, if selected
Bachelor’s Degree from an accredited institution
Minimum of 4 years of experience in user research, interface prototyping, wireframing, or workflow optimization. Exceptional creative, technical, and problem-solving capabilities with a deep emphasis on user point-of-view translation. Desired Qualifications:
Agile Framework Integration: Prior experience working closely alongside back-end developers and scrum masters within a fast-paced Agile Scrum environment.
Federal UI/UX Mandates: Understanding of standard federal technology constraints, responsive framework deployment pipelines, and accessible interface design structures.
