Creating a better user experience, fast

The Jacobs website was broken in some places and cobbled together in others. Investor day was closing in and the homepage needed to be completely overhauled before then. I partnered with the marketing team, our internal dev team and another designer to deliver a measurably better web experience, from wireframe to deployment, in just two months.

Web Design

End market web page engagement increase after homepage redesign

Career page engagement increase after homepage redesign

The redesign led to measurable engagement increases in several key target areas after the first month, including a ten percent increase in visits to the corporate careers page.

Mobile optimized design

Tablet optimized design

I also took on the task of designing the mobile and tablet versions of the homepage, ensuring that the design flexed seamlessly between screen sizes.

Hero section process from wireframe to final design

End market section saw dramatic traffic increase

The success of the project led to buy-in from executive leadership to fund a full redesign of the entire website. It was rewarding working on a project that built trust from the c-suite in the department as a whole.
