What Is the Opportunity?
What Will You Do?
As the practice matures, XD is deliberately moving earlier into the process — from validating decisions after they're made to shaping strategy and priorities from the start. You'll be expected to help drive that shift.
- Provide design expertise across initiatives, supporting product and journey vision and strategy, and contributing to organizational decision-making — earlier in the process, not just after direction is already set.
- Lead the research and design of solutions for products and services by defining, creating, and improving models, concepts, and design elements (e.g., experience goals, journey maps, information architecture, scenarios, personas, interactions, content, visuals, etc.) guided by established design objectives, principles, and standards.
- Plan and execute mixed-method user research and usability testing; lead synthesis and insights generation; analyze and communicate results and recommendations to stakeholders — and advocate for those findings to inform decisions before they're locked in.
- Guide collaborative activities with end users, business, and technology partners, and outside partners, integrating a human-centered focus informed by research-based insights and design exploration.
- Communicate design direction and rationale clearly; solicit and synthesize feedback; support prioritization across a fragmented, multi-stakeholder environment.
- Apply accessibility standards including WCAG and Travelers Digital Accessibility Policy, integrating inclusive design principles and demonstrating familiarity with accessibility testing tools such as Axe and screen readers.
- Apply the Travelers Design System and Agile methodology, demonstrating design phases using the Human-Centered Design Double Diamond approach.
- Leverage experience strategy and design to enhance business outcomes; identify missed opportunities and areas where experiences no longer align with goals, particularly where legacy constraints limit what's currently possible.
- Contribute to the adoption of improved tools, methods, and processes within the XD practice.
- Ensure all design work is aligned with brand guidelines and standards, maintaining a high bar for quality and consistency across projects.
- Manage multiple concurrent projects across different platforms and initiatives, prioritizing tasks to meet deadlines in a fast-changing environment.
- Stay current on industry trends and best practices in experience design, particularly in AI-powered product design, and apply them to advance the practice.
- Participate in and contribute to Experience Design Community events, sharing knowledge across value streams and the broader enterprise.
- Continuously learn, adopting emerging tools, methods, and processes; embody a growth mindset and actively seek personal development.
- Perform other duties as assigned.
