Engagement Description –
The Sr. UX Designer will support the Member Maintenance modernization effort, which is focused on consolidating multiple legacy member maintenance applications into one modern internal application. This role will partner closely with product, business, technology, and UX leadership to understand current workflows, translate business and technical requirements into usable experiences, and design clear, efficient workflows for internal users managing member maintenance tasks.
The designer will help define and refine future-state user flows, screen designs, interaction patterns, form experiences, data tables, audit/history views, and workflow documentation. This work is critical to ensuring the modernization effort improves usability and operational efficiency rather than simply recreating legacy screens in a new system.

o Ability to simplify legacy workflows into clear, usable digital experiences
• Advanced Figma design skills

o Apply component-based design, auto layout, responsive behavior, variants, and interaction states
o Work efficiently within an established design system and contribute to scalable, reusable patterns as needed
o Clearly document screen behavior, validation, edge cases, and responsive considerations
• Strong cross-functional collaboration and requirements translation
o Translate business rules, user needs, and technical constraints into usable workflows

o Partner with product owners, business SMEs, developers, content, and UX leadership
