Humana is hiring a Senior User Interface Design Engineer to create intuitive, high-trust digital experiences for both clinical tools and care-facing platforms. This role leads end-to-end UI design across assigned product verticals, with an emphasis on accessibility, plain-language clarity, and reducing cognitive load for care teams.

Responsibilities

Own end-to-end UI 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, reusable patterns, and scalable design standards.
Share design recommendations and underlying rationale with stakeholders, incorporate feedback, and build alignment across teams.
Produce interactive, high-fidelity prototypes to model complex interactions and validate user flows.
Contribute to how AI-assisted tools are integrated into the design process as internal tooling access expands.
Plan and run qualitative user research, usability testing, and feedback sessions with users and stakeholders to validate decisions and iterate quickly.
Champion WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility and plain-language design so interfaces remain inclusive across different levels of digital and health literacy.
Apply a healthcare and compliance lens 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 through launch, supported by a strong portfolio featuring complex interfaces with clear visual hierarchy and clean execution for data-dense applications.
Bachelor’s degree in Human-Computer Interaction, Design, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
Expert-level Figma skills including auto-layout, tokens, component variables, and interactive prototyping.
Ability to combine strategic thinking with hands-on execution, bringing an informed perspective while working within established design system and standards.
Proven capability to manage competing priorities, operate effectively with ambiguous requirements, and maintain high design quality in a fast-paced, iterative environment.
Strong communication skills to explain design decisions, present to cross-functional stakeholders, and directly discuss technical constraints and tradeoffs with engineers.
Documented success using design to improve business and customer outcomes, such as patient satisfaction, engagement, retention, or operational efficiency.
AI fluency: understanding how AI-driven in-product features behave (including latency handling, confidence scoring, and human-in-the-loop workflows) and genuine interest in AI-assisted design tools.
