AtoZ Arizona is a state-led initiative to create a centralized portal that connects Arizona citizens to state services. This portal will act as a “front door,” providing streamlined access to public-facing state government services and simplify the citizen experience. Our team is seeking a UX/UI Designer to join our team and bring our product vision to life. In this role, you will pick up and refine preexisting designs, create high-fidelity design artifacts and interactive prototypes in Figma, and ensure alignment across multiple stakeholders—including executives, development teams, and various working groups within the program. The ideal candidate has a strong design sense, solid prototyping skills, and can clearly communicate their ideas to both technical and non-technical audiences. Our goal is to develop a user-centric experience that’s both intuitive and visually compelling, enabling seamless navigation, data access, and collaboration across various services. Key Responsibilities Design & Prototype: Create and iterate on user flows, wireframes, and interactive prototypes in Figma. Executive Collaboration: Present design concepts to executives and integrate their feedback into the platform’s look and feel. Stakeholder Alignment: Work with various working groups (developers, product managers, SMEs) to ensure a cohesive design approach and gather continuous feedback. Style Guide Maintenance: Own and update the program’s design system—including colors, typography, iconography, and UI components. Demo & Visual Presentations: Build interactive demos to illustrate feature functionality; design visual documents and infographics for executive-level presentations. Development Handoff: Provide the dev team with design assets, specs, and guidance to ensure alignment during implementation. User Research & Feedback: (If applicable) Conduct or assist in usability testing sessions to validate design decisions. Accessibility Oversight: Oversee WCAG compliance and inclusive design standards for all digital, print, and presentation materials to ensure accessible user experiences. Continuous Improvement: Stay updated on the latest design tools and industry trends, recommending process enhancements for better workflows.  
Skills Required Figma Expertise: Proficiency in creating components, design systems, and interactive prototypes. Design Principles: Solid understanding of responsive design, color theory, typography, and layout. Collaboration: Ability to communicate effectively with cross-functional teams (developers, product managers, execs) in an agile or iterative environment. Presentation Skills: Capable of clearly articulating design decisions to both technical and non-technical audiences. Portfolio: Demonstrated workflows, mockups, or prototypes reflecting user-centric design solutions.  
Skills Preferred Frontend Familiarity: Basic understanding of HTML/CSS for seamless developer handoff. User Testing: Familiarity with usability testing, user interviews, and data analysis to inform design decisions. Visual Storytelling: Skilled at transforming complex ideas into clear visual artifacts for executive-level presentations. Project & Stakeholder Management: Comfortable managing timelines, stakeholder expectations, and design backlogs.  
Experience Required Experience: 3+ years in a UI/UX design role (or similar), with a strong portfolio showcasing web/mobile design projects.  
Experience Preferred Design System & Brand Management: Experience creating or scaling a design system in an organization. Prototyping & Animation: Experience building interactive prototypes and micro-interactions.
