Senior UX Designer (contract to hire)

Tactile is a UX and product design firm specializing in design solutions for trusted professionals—the people behind the work that continues to improve (and even save) lives. This means crafting quality products with lasting relevance and impact. Meaningful physical and digital experiences for everyday moments and the one of a kind.

Tactile is made up of an exceptional group of people, spanning user experience, visual design, industrial design, and mechanical engineering. We look at product design holistically, knowing that a product isn’t just another project. It’s where intent and relevance intersect in order to solve real-world problems. Designers at Tactile find balance in usability, delight, and feasibility—it’s there that solutions to complex problems come to life. We work on a wide spectrum of exciting and challenging projects that allow our designers to gain new experiences, learn, and advance their craft.

We’re looking for a Senior UX Designer (contract to hire) who thrives in early-stage ambiguity and loves shaping new experiences that positively impact peoples’ jobs and lives. This role is for someone who leads with curiosity, explores and communicates visually (sketching, storyboarding, prototyping), and makes challenges and opportunities tangible for the team and client. You will be working directly with a Seattle-based e-commerce and technology leader, translating complex business requirements into tangible solutions for a top-tier strategic client.

This is a highly collaborative, cross-functional role. You’ll partner closely with Tactile researchers and cross-disciplinary designers, as well as client teams and stakeholders to translate insights into clear, compelling directions. While you’re comfortable collaborating on interface details and systems, your center of gravity is experience definition and advocacy, not pixel-perfection.
