WHAT YOU'LL DO
Ascend Learning is seeking a talented and forward-thinking UX Designer to create intuitive, user-centered experiences for our digital products.

  • Research & Validation: Plan and conduct user research and usability testing to surface meaningful insights and validate design decisions with real evidence.
  • Collaboration: Work closely with product managers, engineers, and business stakeholders to present, discuss, and refine design solutions across the full product lifecycle.
  • Design Systems: Contribute to and evolve our design system, ensuring scalable, consistent experiences across products and platforms.
  • Design Excellence: Champion best practices in interaction design, accessibility, and design patterns.

WHAT YOU'LL NEED
  • Bachelor's degree in Design, HCI, or a related field
  • 3+ years of experience in UX or product design
  • Proficiency in Figma; experience with AI-powered design and ideation tools (Claude, generative tools, or similar) strongly preferred
  • Experience working with front-end developers and contributing to design-to-dev handoffs
  • A natural collaborator with strong communication skills and the ability to present and defend design decisions to diverse audiences
  • A critical thinker who can navigate ambiguity, solve complex problems, and drive work forward independently
  • Portfolio demonstrating your design process, range of work, and ability to connect design decisions to user and business outcomes

In accordance with applicable state laws, we are providing the expected salary range for this position.
