Estimated from BLS employment for this occupation and area, per-skill prevalence across our listing corpus, and published wage benchmarks — as of Jul 28, 2026. It is a model, not a headcount.

Why we read it this way (8)

The clearance requirement states 'active Secret clearance upon hire (or the ability to obtain)' — the posting gates on either holding or being able to obtain a Secret clearance, so Secret is flagged as required.

The degree requirement lists a Bachelor's in Design, HCI, Computer Science, or a related field 'or equivalent professional experience,' so no hard degree gate is set.

Experience range is stated as '5-10+ years'; 5 years is used as the minimum.

Figma, Adobe XD, and Sketch are listed as interchangeable design tool options under required skills; Figma is used as the primary with the others as alternatives.

React, Angular, and Vue appear only under Desired Skills and are framed as experience collaborating with frontend engineers — marked preferred accordingly.

Usability testing appears in both required duties and desired skills; the desired-skills framing ('conducting or guiding') is the more specific gate, so it is marked preferred.

Dark-themed UI design experience appears only under Desired Skills and is not captured as a named tool/technology per extraction rules.

Requires a Secret clearance — the cleared population is a small fraction of this occupation, so the real candidate pool is materially smaller than the estimate below, which does not model clearance.
