Job Description

Humana is seeking a Senior User Interface Design Engineer to help shape intuitive, high-trust digital experiences across clinical tools and care-facing platforms. In this onsite role in Washington, DC, you will combine strategic product thinking with hands-on execution, taking work from discovery through pixel-perfect delivery.

You will partner closely with product, engineering, and clinical stakeholders to reduce cognitive load for care teams and improve clarity for patient care, with a strong focus on accessibility, health literacy, and privacy-aware design in regulated environments.

Responsibilities

Own end-to-end design for assigned product verticals, covering discovery through pixel-perfect delivery, including workflow design, information architecture, and interface design for data-dense, human-in-the-loop clinical workflows.
Support and contribute to design systems, patterns, and scalable design standards.
Provide design recommendations and explain the rationale to stakeholders, incorporating feedback and driving alignment across teams.
Build interactive, high-fidelity prototypes to model complex interactions, validate user flows, and contribute to how AI-assisted tools are incorporated into the design process as internal tooling access expands.
Plan and execute qualitative user research, usability testing, and feedback sessions with users and stakeholders, iterating rapidly based on results.
Champion WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility standards and plain-language design principles to ensure inclusivity across varying levels of digital and health literacy.
Approach design with sensitivity to privacy, patient trust, and regulatory requirements.

Requirements

5+ years of hands-on product design experience (UI/UX) delivering digital products, web applications, or complex enterprise platforms from concept to launch, with a strong portfolio of complex interfaces showing visual hierarchy and clean execution for data-dense applications.
Bachelor’s degree in Human-Computer Interaction, Design, or related field, or equivalent practical experience.
Expert-level Figma skills, including auto-layout, tokens, component variables, and interactive prototyping.
Ability to balance strategic thinking with hands-on execution within established design systems and standards.
Proven ability to manage competing priorities, navigate ambiguous requirements, and maintain high design quality in a fast-paced, iterative environment.
Outstanding communication skills, including articulating design decisions and discussing technical constraints and tradeoffs with engineers and cross-functional stakeholders.
Demonstrated success using design to improve business and customer outcomes, such as patient satisfaction, engagement, retention, or operational efficiency.
AI fluency, including understanding how AI-driven features behave in-product (latency handling, confidence scoring, human-in-the-loop workflows) and interest in AI-assisted design tools.
