Verisk is seeking a UX Designer to help create intuitive, accessible experiences for professionals who rely on our products to complete complex work with confidence. You will work as part of a cross-functional product team, partnering with product managers and engineers to understand user needs, explore solutions, and bring thoughtful experiences from early concepts through delivery.

This role is designed for a UX professional who has a experience in interaction and interface design and is ready to grow through hands-on product work, customer learning, design critique, and mentorship. You will contribute to clearly defined projects while building the judgment and product knowledge needed to take on greater ownership over time.

Responsibilities
  • Contribute to interaction and interface design for web and mobile product experiences, from early concepts through implementation.

  • Translate user needs, business requirements, domain workflows, and technical constraints into clear user flows, wireframes, prototypes, and high-fidelity designs.

  • Use AI-assisted tools to explore design concepts and iterate on early prototypes more efficiently, while applying human judgment, validating ideas against user needs, and following company policies for responsible AI use and data protection.

  • Participate in product discovery and user research activities, including interview support, note-taking, synthesis, workflow analysis, and usability testing.

  • Apply Verisk design-system components, established interaction patterns, responsive-design principles, and accessibility standards to design work.

  • Collaborate closely with product managers, engineers, designers, researchers, customers, and subject-matter experts to refine problems and deliver feasible solutions.

  • Use prototypes and design artifacts to communicate interaction behavior, test assumptions, gather feedback, and support implementation.

  • Participate in design reviews, explain design decisions, incorporate feedback, and iterate toward usable and consistent outcomes.

  • Contribute to design documentation, reusable patterns, shared libraries, and team practices that improve quality and consistency across products.

  • Build knowledge of assigned products, customer personas, and common industry workflows so design decisions reflect the realities of users’ work.

  • Stay curious about evolving UX practices, accessibility, AI-assisted workflows, and emerging interaction patterns, and apply relevant learning with appropriate guidance.

What Success Looks Like:

  • You ask thoughtful questions and seek to understand the user’s environment before moving to a solution.

  • You simplify complex workflows without losing important context or functionality.

  • You apply existing standards consistently while recognizing when a problem may require further exploration.

  • You communicate progress, rationale, risks, and open questions in ways that help the product team make decisions.

  • You use feedback and evidence to improve the work rather than treating the first design as the final answer.

  • You demonstrate curiosity, empathy, attention to detail, collaboration, initiative, and a growth mindset.

Qualifications
  • Portfolio demonstrating foundational UX design skills, structured problem solving, and the reasoning behind design decisions.

  • Understanding of user-centered design principles, usability heuristics, interaction design, and information hierarchy.

  • Ability to create user flows, wireframes, prototypes, and interface designs using Figma or a comparable design tool.

  • Awareness of responsive design, inclusive design, and accessibility practices, including WCAG guidance.

  • Ability to communicate clearly, collaborate across disciplines, receive feedback constructively, and follow through on assigned work.

  • Exposure to user research methods such as interviews, surveys, workflow observation, or usability testing.

  • Ability to organize work, manage details, and contribute effectively when requirements or product constraints evolve.

Preferred Qualifications: 

  • 2–3 years of professional experience in UX design, product design, or a closely related role preferred.

  • Bachelor’s degree in design, human-computer interaction, psychology, computer science, information science, or a related discipline, or equivalent practical experience.

  • Experience designing responsive web or mobile applications in a product-development environment.

  • Experience working with a design system or creating reusable components and documented interaction patterns.

  • Experience preparing or supporting usability studies and applying findings to design iterations.

  • Familiarity with insurance, property, construction, restoration, estimating, or other complex business workflows.

  • Experience using AI-assisted tools to support research synthesis, ideation, prototyping, content, or documentation while reviewing outputs for accuracy and quality.

  • Prototyping experience beyond static screens, using Figma prototyping, Framer, AI code-assisted tools, or comparable methods.
