Job description

Description

Precise Software Solutions Inc. is seeking a UI/UX Developer to design and build intuitive, accessible, human-centered interfaces for secure AI-enabled applications supporting the Government's Enterprise AI Solution Delivery and Support Services program. You will turn complex AI capabilities — chat assistants, document processing, decision-support dashboards — into experiences users trust, meeting Section 508 (36 CFR Part 1194) and WCAG 2.1 AA on every release.

Prefer local candidates. This position may be remote for the right person but must take place during East Coast core business hours.

Qualified candidate must be USC/GC/EAD and have or be able to attain a Public Trust clearance.

Key Responsibilities

• Design and build UIs for AI-enabled apps, dashboards, and workflows — research, wireframes, prototypes, visual/interaction design, production front-end code
• Independently developed, tested, and deployed modules sharing a common design system, aligned to USWDS and agency standards
• Design for SSO/MFA-aware, role-based access at the application entry point
• Design AI-specific UX: intelligent search/ranking by role and context, inline contextual help at decision points, and natural-language query interfaces
• Design human-in-the-loop review screens (approve/override/reject/escalate with documented rationale), reflecting governance boundaries between delivery-assistance AI use and governed production AI functionality
• Meet Section 508/WCAG 2.1 AA; support automated 508 testing with findings tracked to remediation; test with assistive tech via DHS Trusted Tester methods; prepare ACR/VPAT per release
• Run usability assessments; track findings as non-functional requirements in Jira
• Review existing screens/workflows for usability and 508 gaps; validate priority user journeys with business analysts, developers, and stakeholders
• Communicate design decisions, research findings, and progress clearly to both internal teams (developers, product owners, program leadership) and external stakeholders (government customers, state/agency partners, end users)
• Develop training materials (user guides, job aids, release notes); work in two-week Agile sprints with AI engineers and product owners using Government-approved repos/tools

Requirements

• Working knowledge of HTML/CSS and front-end concepts (React-based micro frontend architecture) sufficient to collaborate closely with developers; proficiency in Figma or Sketch; strong wireframing, user flows, and design systems experience
• Experience designing user experiences for AI products (e.g., chat assistants, RAG search, agentic workflows)
• Familiarity with low-code/no-code platforms and their design constraints is a plus
• Experience with data visualization libraries (e.g., D3, Chart.js) and dashboard design is preferred
• Demonstrated 508/WCAG 2.1 A & AA conformance work; screen reader/assistive tech testing; usability testing with documented, measurable design improvements
• Working understanding of AI-governance boundaries for federal systems — knowing when AI output requires human review/approval before any regulatory or operational action
• Agile team experience with Git and Jira
• Bachelor's in Human-Computer Interaction, Design, Human Factors, Information Systems, or a related field (or equivalent practical experience); 5+ years hands-on UI/UX design experience; portfolio showing accessible, research-driven design
