Another core function of the Commission is to provide current and accurate information to the public and various governmental and other organizations about the State's electoral processes, voting statistics, and trends. This position functions under the supervision of the IT Project Manager and IT Director, as part of the Information Technology team, and serves as a resource for developers and election specialists. The position is responsible for designing, helping to develop, and maintaining the UI/UX for the rebuilding of Wisconsin’s statewide voter registration system called WisVote, which is being built on the .NET Core framework. WisVote serves as the state’s central database of voter and election information and is the primary tool for local election officials to administer elections. The role involves creating intuitive, efficient, and accessible designs that meet WCAG 2.1 AA standards and align usability and security requirements, while maintaining the overall structure and integrity familiar to system users. The designer will collaborate with developers and WisVote election specialists to translate functional needs into user-friendly designs, conduct accessibility testing, and ensure the rebuilt application provides a consistent, responsive experience across devices and assistive technologies.
