Virtusa is expanding its design team and is currently scouting for a talented Senior UX Designer to craft seamless, human-centric digital journeys. If you are a design professional with a knack for solving complex problems, this could be your next big career move.
Role Overview
You will sit right at the intersection of business strategy, engineering feasibility, and user needs. The core of this role involves transforming abstract concepts into high-quality prototypes that make sense to the end user. You aren’t just moving pixels; you are conducting research, testing concepts, and ensuring that every interaction feels intuitive.
You will work closely with product managers and developers, meaning your ability to articulate the “why” behind your design choices will be tested daily.
Key Eligibility & Requirements
Virtusa is looking for someone who has already been around the block. This role demands a high level of autonomy and proficiency in design workflows.
- Experience: You must have 5-7 years of professional experience in UX design.
- Technical Skills: Expert-level command over modern tools like Figma, Sketch, or Adobe XD is non-negotiable.
- Research Mindset: You should be comfortable leading user interviews, usability testing, and synthesizing feedback into actionable design iterations.
- Technical Literacy: While you aren’t writing production code, you need a solid grasp of HTML/CSS to ensure your designs aren’t just pretty, but buildable.
- Collaboration: Experience contributing to and maintaining design systems is highly preferred.
- Accessibility: You must advocate for and implement WCAG accessibility standards across all your projects.
Why This Role Matters
This isn’t a position for someone who wants to work in a silo. You are expected to be a bridge. You will identify user pain points, conduct deep-dive research, and translate those findings into wireframes and site maps. If you enjoy rapid prototyping and seeing your concepts move from a whiteboard to a live product, you will fit right in.
