UX Designer

The UX Designer will be responsible for crafting intuitive, visually engaging digital experiences across Verisign’s marketing websites, web applications and internal enterprise tools. This role requires a strong blend of UX strategy and visual design expertise, with a focus on creating high-quality, user-centered designs that align with business objectives.

As part of a cross-functional hybrid team, you will work closely with other UX designers, developers, marketing managers, and researchers to design and refine digital experiences—everything from concepting, low-fidelity wireframing, and rapid prototyping, to designing high-fidelity mockups with specifications for handoff to our development partners. The ideal candidate has a keen eye for visual, branding, typography, layout, and motion design, and is comfortable working in a fast-paced, collaborative environment. This role may also support broader creative initiatives, including digital marketing, web publishing, advertising and production projects and tasks.

This role offers the opportunity to work on high-impact digital experiences in a dynamic, collaborative environment. If you have a passion for user-centered design, compelling visuals, and digital storytelling, we’d love to hear from you.

Requirements:

• 5+ years of experience in UX and visual design, creating best-in-class digital experiences
• Expertise in designing task flows, site maps, wireframes, prototypes, and high-fidelity UI designs for responsive web and mobile applications, applying design system guidelines when appropriate
• Strong proficiency in Figma and Adobe Creative Cloud (Photoshop, Illustrator)
• Deep understanding of typography, color theory, layout, and visual hierarchy in digital design
• Ability to translate user research, business needs, and creative direction into polished, high-quality designs
• Familiarity with user research methodologies and using analytics to inform design improvements
• Working knowledge of the latest accessibility guidelines (WCAG) and how to apply them in digital experiences
• Experience collaborating closely with developers to ensure seamless design-to-development handoff
• Basic understanding of HTML, CSS, or front-end development to enhance collaboration with developers
• Familiarity with Agile/Scrum/Kanban workflows and managing tasks in JIRA
• Strong communication skills, with the ability to present and masterfully articulate design decisions to stakeholders
• Willingness to support additional visual design projects, including digital marketing assets and branding initiatives, as needed
• An online portfolio showcasing your excellent UX and visual design work

Preferred Skills:

• Experience with branding, logo design, and maintaining design systems
