Design
UX Designer
Shapes how a product feels to use, from first impression to last click.
About the work
UX designers research user needs, map journeys, prototype interfaces and test them until the experience is obvious rather than clever.
A day in the life
Usability session in the morning, wireframing, a critique with the team, handing off a flow to engineering.
How people get in
Design degree or a conversion course plus a strong portfolio; the portfolio matters more than the certificate.
