Pluribus Digital partners with our government customers to design, develop, and deliver useful and impactful digital products. We are a hands-on digital services consultancy – part technologists, part change agents, and all heart.

We're seeking a cross-functional Sr. UX designer whose deepest expertise lies in content. You'll need to dive into design tools and workflows while bringing deep expertise in content—strategy, governance, and writing.

Manage the content lifecycle—planning, creating, updating, and governing digital content to enhance application experiences.
Serve as the primary UX writer—designing, drafting, and refining content across internal- and external-facing products.
Design and deliver user flows, wireframes, mockups, prototypes, content drafts, and user stories that lead to effective, human-centered digital experiences.
Audit and analyze user data, stakeholder input, and legal/counsel guidance to uncover opportunities and define content strategies.
Establish processes that support legal review, consistency, scalability, and sustainability in content management.
Facilitate collaboration among stakeholders and product teams by applying human-centered design methods to refine content and design artifacts.
Ask great questions to translate ambiguous requirements into actionable content and design deliverables.
Be a strong voice in presenting ideas, concepts, and design solutions to gain stakeholder buy-in and encourage constructive critique.
