As Lead UI / UX Designer on the Financial Services consolidation, you will own and drive the end-to-end design strategy for merging two high-visibility domains into a single, unified AEM-based platform.

You will partner closely with Product, Development, QA, SEO, Analytics, Content, and Stakeholder teams to translate complex business objectives into intuitive, accessible, and scalable user experiences.

• Own the consolidated UX vision, defining design principles, patterns, and success metrics that align with organizational goals (e.g., engagement uplift, template reuse, design-to-dev accuracy).
• Architect and govern a production-ready design system comprising 100+ responsive components, 5 enterprise-grade templates, and micro-interaction specifications, ensuring strict WCAG 2.1 AA compliance.
• Lead a distributed UX / UI team : mentor senior and mid-level designers, conduct rigorous design reviews, and establish best-practice playbooks (style guidelines, naming conventions, version control).
• Serve as the primary liaison to Executive and Legal stakeholders-facilitate design workshops, steer consensus during high-impact design critiques, and incorporate feedback into iterative sprints.
• Collaborate with AEM Architects and Front-End leads to confirm component feasibility, hand off detailed Figma specs, and monitor implementation quality (assess edge-case states, cross-browser behavior, performance constraints).
• Define and track key KPIs (e.g., 98% design-to-development accuracy, ? 85% component reuse rate, user satisfaction scores), and embed continuous improvement cycles via regular QA / UX audits.
• Champion accessibility and inclusivity by conducting audits of color contrast, semantic markup, keyboard navigation, and screen-reader flows, and guiding remediation strategies within design artifacts.
