At Vervint, our purpose is progress, and we are out to improve lives by keeping humanity at the core of every solution.

  • Contribute to overall project quality and success by wholly owning or assisting with the production of project deliverables (i.e. product roadmaps, user personas, service blueprints, user flows, user stories, journey maps, alignment diagrams, sketches, wireframes, prototypes, visual concepts, strategic communication)
  • Build and maintain close relationships with our partners in development, QA, client services as well as other design team members to ensure that all requirements and design decisions are clearly understood and delivered
  • Develop an understanding of consulting practices including client services, budgeting, timelines, and processes

What you bring to this role:

  • Minimum two years of study or experience in experience design, qualitative research, service design, web design, graphic design, industrial design, human factors design, or other related disciplines

  • Familiarity with human-centered design and design thinking
  • Willingness and drive to learn new skills (including any of the above you may not have today) and adopt new ways of working
  • Comfort with some level of ambiguity

You Belong. At Vervint, we embrace all the facets of identity that make you — you. From race, gender identity, and veteran status to disabilities and more, your lived experiences enrich everyone around you.
