Description
*** This position is contingent upon an award to perform this work ***
We are looking for a User Interface Designer to design and build web pages using a variety of graphics software applications, techniques, and tools. The User Interface Designer will provide user-centered design support, incorporating stakeholder feedback, to ensure an intuitive interface and optimal user experience.
Over the past decades, our customer has developed a number of data sets and tools. Each of these tools was developed independently from the other and often with customized software. While each tool has unique and useful features, as a whole they lack a consistent user interface and are not as a group “branded.” The User Interface Designer will be part of the team to reprogram a set of the online data tools to harmonize the look, feel, and usability of the statistical data tools so that they use a common or limited set of user interfaces and are clearly branded.
