Senior UX Designer

Join Lepaya!

Over the past 6 years, we have built a solid foundation for our products by continuously delivering impactful value to our clients such as our Lepaya Platform for strategic program scheduling and our Lepaya Learn App to complement our blended learning experience.

Now, we are looking for a Senior UX Designer who will bring a broad experience and fresh perspective to our Product-Design-Engineering (“PDE”) teams. We are pioneers in our field, so there is lots of unexplored digital territory to be discovered. We need someone who loves to experiment, test new ideas, and implement solutions efficiently. Someone who is collaboratively practical in discerning when lean "discovery-through-delivery" is appropriate and when a more thorough "measure-twice / cut-once" approach is needed. They balance a commercial and product mindset, validating customer value through measurable behavioral changes, while applying Human-Centered Design principles. You’ll also be responsible for creating appealing visual designs that enhance the product experiences, leveraging interaction design and user interface design techniques, and knowing when to balance “copy best industry practices” patterns with creating innovative UIs that differentiate out product offerings.

By embodying our values of Ownership, Impact, One Team, Development, and Delight, you will play a pivotal role in shaping innovative user experiences and driving our mission forward.

Our Product Vision

We distill the business objectives of our enterprise customers to identify their workforce skills gaps and design targeted skill-building programs. These programs are delivered at scale with efficacy and a differentiated curriculum, resulting in behavioral changes that create a demonstrable impact on those business objectives. And each time customers traverse that loop, it expands in value for them.
