Full Job Description
## Description CompassX is a boutique business and technology consulting firm. We help Fortune 500 and high-growth clients deliver their most strategic initiatives, from enterprise transformations to digital and data-driven projects. With over 15 years of proven results, we’ve expanded across industries including financial services, pharmaceuticals, aerospace, consumer products, and quick service restaurants. We are honored to be recognized as a three-time winner of Consulting Magazine’s Best Boutique Firms to Work For, and previously recognized as a “Best Place to Work” in Southern California and one of INC.’s 5000 fastest-growing private companies in the U.S. We're looking for a UX consultant who leads with problem-solving and brings strong UX methodology to bear on it - not a visual designer whose primary output is Figma comps or style guides. At CompassX, UX consultants work directly with enterprise clients to shape digital products, internal tools, and service experiences. You'll bring structure to ambiguous problems, run discovery with real users, and design solutions that are both technically feasible and genuinely usable - moving fluidly across research, interaction design, and prototyping depending on what the engagement needs. The right person here is someone who has built real UX credibility but operates like a consultant: comfortable with ambiguity, able to work across the full design spectrum, and not precious about deliverable type. ## What You'll Do Lead Discovery: Plan and facilitate user research - interviews, contextual inquiry, usability testing - to surface real problems before jumping to solutions. Design Across the Stack: Move fluidly between journey maps, service blueprints, wireframes, and high-fidelity prototypes depending on what the engagement needs. Own the end-to-end design arc. Build and Validate: Go beyond static deliverables where needed - build interactive prototypes, contribute to design systems, or work directly in tools like Figma
