Description
Location: Remote – United States (Open to applicants located anywhere in the US or overlapping timezones)
Fueled is a leading digital strategy, design, and engineering agency. We are a 300+ person team that has designed and built hundreds of digital products and experiences for brands like Google, Apple, The New York Times, ESPN, Victoria’s Secret, MGM Resorts, Albertsons, and CLEAR.
As a Lead UX Designer at Fueled, you’ll thrive by embracing ambiguity and turning it into an opportunity. You’ll use each new problem as a chance to build something meaningful, collaborate with a cross-functional team, and prioritize action that moves projects forward. By creating thoughtful solutions, supporting great work across the team, and staying curious, you’ll make an impact that’s felt by users, clients, and your peers.
Intentionally remote, our team thrives in a culture that values flexibility, creativity, and cutting-edge technology. Together, we’re shaping the future of digital experiences.
What you will do:
- Lead end-to-end UX direction across client engagements, shaping experiences that are intuitive, scalable, and ready to ship.
- Collaborate closely with UX, design, and engineering teams to define scope, clarify priorities, and make smart tradeoffs that protect the user experience.
- Translate ambiguous business goals into clear user journeys, information architecture, and interaction models that teams can confidently build from.
- Facilitate alignment across client stakeholders and internal teams by guiding workshops and turning competing inputs into actionable decisions, supported by easy to understand deliverables.
- Develop UX patterns and design foundations that improve consistency, reduce rework, and accelerate delivery across teams.
What you will achieve:
- Deliver UX work that improves real product outcomes, such as higher conversion, stronger engagement, clearer navigation, or smoother onboarding experiences.
- Create clarity early by turning open questions into structured flows, priorities, and decisions that teams can build with confidence.
- Ship work you’re proud of, raising the bar for usability, polish, and thoughtful interaction design across client projects.
- Strengthen collaboration across teams by improving how clients, product, design, and engineering align and move forward together.
- Grow as a Lead UX Designer through feedback, iteration, and working closely with a tight team of people who care about craft.
About you:
- You have 6+ years of experience designing digital products and leading UX work across complex web and/or mobile experiences.
- You thrive in busy environments and know how to bring structure, clarity, and momentum without overcomplicating the process.
- You ask great questions early and aren’t afraid to seek input, challenge assumptions, or pull in the right people to get to the best outcome.
- You collaborate naturally across disciplines, building strong relationships with clients, product teams, and engineers to keep work moving forward.
- You have a track record of shipping work you’re proud of, delivering thoughtful, polished UX that improves usability, engagement, or conversion.
