• Working knowledge of accessibility standards and inclusive design principles.

• Ability to independently own UX deliverables and represent the user experience within a cross-functional product team.

• Portfolio demonstrating relevant design work, individual contributions, problem-solving approaches, and design outcomes.

• Bachelor’s degree in Design, Human-Computer Interaction, or a related field strongly preferred; equivalent qualifications may be considered based on extensive relevant experience.

• Ability to work onsite in downtown Minneapolis three days per week.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience designing B2B financial products, commercial banking applications, payment platforms, or virtual payment workflows.

• Background designing complex enterprise SaaS applications or internal business tools.

• Experience in highly regulated industries such as financial services, healthcare, or education.

• Hands-on experience with Replit, Figma Make, or comparable AI-assisted prototyping tools.

• Familiarity with Microsoft Copilot or similar AI tools for research, competitive analysis, and design exploration.

• Experience rapidly iterating on concepts using stakeholder feedback, customer insights, and emerging technologies.

• Experience simplifying complex administrative workflows, account management tools, reporting interfaces, or financial operations processes.
