We're seeking a
to own the look, feel, and interaction coherence of the entire FutureFit AI platform across job seeker, staff, employer, and agency-admin surfaces — and to lead the design of our largest, most complex feature initiatives end to end.
FutureFit AI is the connective tissue between workers, training, and employers. That thesis holds if the product feels like coherent, trustworthy system to four very different audiences using it for very different reasons: a job seeker navigating a career change, a career counsellor managing a caseload, an employer posting roles and searching for candidates, and a state agency or intermediary administrator overseeing the whole program. Today the platform spans many surfaces, personas, and tenants, and it's growing fast — our flagship Massachusetts deployment is replacing the state's primary workforce platform.
Without a single owner of craft and coherence, complexity compounds into accidental inconsistency and rework. You are the person who holds the experience standard for the whole product and personally designs the hardest, highest-stakes features. In your first six months, success looks like a documented, adopted design foundation in use across surfaces; a significant visual facelift of the Talent Portal shipped as a visible proof point; design leadership on at least large, complex initiative through ship; and accessibility conformance the team builds toward by default rather than something QA catches late.
Deep product design craft across complex, multi-persona B2B/B2G or enterprise SaaS — not just consumer or marketing surfaces
Demonstrated ownership of a design system at meaningful scale
Fluency in accessible design and a track record of meeting WCAG 2.2 AA / Section 508 (or equivalent) in production, including designing conversational and data-dense interfaces accessibly
Range from systems-level thinking down to pixel-level polish, with strong IA and interaction-design fundamentals
Experience designing for AI-mediated or recommendation-driven experiences — surfacing model output, handling uncertainty, building user trust
Ability to run your own user research and synthesize it into design decisions
Comfort prioritizing where design depth matters across a wide surface
Experience in digital government, public benefit technology, or civic tech
Familiarity with workforce development or other regulated, compliance-heavy domains
Experience designing for multi-tenant platforms where system serves many configurable customers
Comfort operating as the senior-most design voice in the room with executives and customers
