The Role The Strategist, Customer Experience helps ambitious B2B and B2C brands build the strategies, frameworks, and digital experiences that drive measurable growth. As we expand our Customer Experience practice, we are seeking a strategic digital experience leader who thrives at the intersection of user behavior, data-driven insights, and digital capabilities.

You possess the practical fluency in enterprise platforms (like AEM and Optimizely) needed to design scalable testing and publishing programs. Partnering closely with platform engineers and design specialists, you will ensure your strategies translate seamlessly from concept to reality—working alongside senior clients who trust you to challenge the status quo and push their digital ecosystems forward. What You'll Accomplish UX Strategy & Research - Lead client discovery including stakeholder interviews, expert heuristic reviews of existing web experiences, and usability testing. You’ll evaluate what’s working, what’s broken, and why. - Translate findings into journey maps, IA frameworks, sitemaps, content strategy and wireframe-level recommendations that development and design teams can act on. - Facilitate client workshops including discovery, alignment, co-creation — with the confidence to challenge assumptions in the room. - Partner with Shift’s internal Decision Science team to research buyer behavior and audience intelligence and use it to connect those insights to web experience implications. - Establish experience principles and strategic guardrails that guide design execution.

You have likely authored content and published pages, run experiments, and configured audience rules in these platforms, giving you foundational understanding to advise clients and guide engineers through bringing strategy to life in the build. - Lead testing and experimentation strategy including writing strong hypotheses, designing test structures, interpreting results, and driving iteration. - Experience with both B2B and B2C web environments and ability to advise clients who have varying buying cycles lengths, traffic volumes, need for 1:1 and account-level targeting and personalization. SEO - Conduct and interpret technical SEO audits and translate findings into prioritized recommendations. - Build content SEO strategies grounded in search intent mapping, keyword architecture, and topical gap analysis. Integrate SEO thinking into UX and personalization strategies. - Speak fluently to how AI is reshaping search — generative engine optimization, AI overviews, answer engine visibility and what that means for how clients structure and prioritize content. UI Direction & Design Systems - Provide directional guidance on design systems, component governance, and UI standards to help govern quality. - Review work in Figma; write creative briefs and UI direction that give designers a clear strategic frame to work within. - Ensure UX strategy translates through to visual and interactive execution; partner closely with UI team members on handoff and quality review. - General understanding of accessibility standards (WCAG 2.1/2.2) and how design system decisions affect performance and SEO. ​​​​​​​Client Leadership & Practice Growth - Partner with Client Success to own stakeholder relationships within your accounts, build trust, surface expansion opportunities, and act as the strategic voice on web and CX workstreams. - Write and present recommendations to VP and C-suite audiences.

Skills & Capabilities - Skilled at leading discovery and working sessions and translating complex CX concepts effectively across technical (engineering) and executive (CMO) audiences. - Working knowledge of how marketing teams use Web and DXP systems like Adobe Experience Manager and Optimizely, especially content pushing, personalization testing capabilities. No certification or administrative experience required. - Strong design literacy with the ability to write creative briefs, provide structured feedback as a reviewer in Figma, and ensure UI execution aligns with overarching strategy. - Proven problem solver with the ability to find patterns, adapt across diverse industries (e.g., Financial Services, SaaS) and both B2B and B2C brands. - Skilled at managing multiple projects in fast-paced environments with a high level of precision. - Clear communicator with excellent written, verbal, and interpersonal skills. - Flexibility to travel for client onsites. Mindset - Self-directed, detail-oriented, and accountable.
