We are launching a focused 90-day initiative to advance JAGGAER’s AI platform, JAI, and to scale conversational design capabilities across our User Experience team. This temporary Conversational Designer role will split time between:
1. Hands-on design for JAI conversational experiences.
2. Upskilling existing UX team members in conversational design best practices.
If you love shaping how users interact with AI, and you’re energized by coaching others and leaving behind frameworks, not just features, you’ll be a great fit here.

Principal Responsibilities

1. JAI Conversational Experience Design
• Design end-to-end conversational user journeys for JAI (from first query through resolution, escalation, and follow-up).
• Create dialog flows, conversation scripts, prompts, and error/edge-case handling that are clear, empathetic, and aligned with JAGGAER’s tone and brand.
• Partner with Product, UX, Data Science, and Engineering to translate business needs into effective conversational use cases and experiences.
• Define appropriate conversation patterns for different experiences (chat-style, mixed UI + conversation, guided flows, micro-copilots, etc.).
• Collaborate on prompt strategies and interaction patterns that leverage LLM capabilities while promoting reliability, safety, and transparency.
• Use qualitative feedback and quantitative data to refine conversational flows; propose metrics for success (e.g., containment, task completion, satisfaction, deflection).
• Contribute to UX copy and microcopy for JAI experiences, ensuring consistency across surfaces and products.

 

2. Team Enablement & Practice Building
• Quickly assess the current state of conversational experiences and processes across the UX team.
• Create practical playbooks, templates, and checklists (for flows, prompts, tone of voice, error handling, safety guardrails, etc.) that others can adopt.
• Lead training sessions, workshops, and office hours to get UX team members up-to-speed on conversational design fundamentals and advanced techniques.
• Document best practices for collaboration with product, engineering, and AI/ML stakeholders when designing conversational experiences.
• Help establish reusable design standards (patterns, IA, content guidelines) for conversational UI within JAGGAER’s broader design system.
• Coach team members on how to review, critique, and continuously improve conversational experiences.

 

3. Research, Testing, and Collaboration
• Partner with UX researchers and product managers to identify user needs and high-impact conversational use cases.
• Plan and conduct (or support) usability testing and heuristic reviews focused on conversational interactions.
• Bring external perspective by staying aware of industry trends in conversational AI, chatbots, and AI copilots, and share relevant insights with the team.
• Communicate findings and recommendations clearly to stakeholders at different levels, from designers and engineers to product leaders.

Position Requirements

Minimum Qualifications
• 3+ years of experience designing conversational experiences (chatbots, virtual assistants, voice UX, or AI copilots) in a product or consulting setting.
• A portfolio or work samples demonstrating structured conversation flows, UX writing, and measurable impact on user or business outcomes.
• Hands-on experience designing for LLM-based or AI-assisted products (e.g., chat interfaces, copilots, integrated AI assistants) or similar conversational platforms.
• Strong proficiency in UX fundamentals: information architecture, interaction patterns, content hierarchy, and user-centered design methods.
• Excellent UX writing skills with the ability to craft concise, clear, and human-friendly conversational copy.
• Experience collaborating closely with product managers, designers, and engineers from discovery through delivery.
• Comfortable working standard US business hours aligned to the Eastern Time Zone to collaborate with core JAGGAER teams.
• Proficiency with modern design and collaboration tools (e.g., Figma, Miro, or similar), plus familiarity with conversation design tools (e.g., diagrams, flow tools).
• Strong communication and facilitation skills; ability to teach concepts to peers in a practical, approachable way.

 

Preferred Qualifications
• Experience designing conversational experiences for B2B SaaS or complex enterprise workflows; procurement or supply chain domain exposure is a plus.
• Demonstrated experience in enablement or coaching (e.g., leading workshops, building internal guidelines, mentoring other designers).
• Familiarity with LLM behavior, prompt engineering concepts, and evaluation of AI-driven experiences.
• Experience using analytics and experimentation (e.g., A/B testing, funnel analysis, conversation transcripts) to improve conversational UX.
• Understanding of enterprise considerations such as data privacy, security, compliance, and responsible AI principles.
• Degree in Interaction Design, UX, HCI, Linguistics, Cognitive Science, or a related field (or equivalent practical experience).
