Responsibilities

Lead the design work for software applications for both desktop and mobile devices across a range of operating systems.

Ensure systems thinking is brought to bear to create cohesive and delightful experiences that span hardware, software, and content.

Reinforce a learning mindset: Participate in user research and A/B testing, advocate for our users at every step of the way, and leverage findings artfully to continuously improve designs.

Bring a keen understanding of our users’ motivations, goals, and needs to help define new features, functions, and products.

Influence, challenge, extend, and evolve our UX design language to craft elegant and consistent design experiences.

Foster successful collaboration with hardware and software product managers, industrial designers, software developers, and hardware engineers to drive solutions through to completion.

Help evolve our design processes and deliverables to best meet the needs of a growing organization, as well as increase efficiency within the UX group.

Capture ideas and solutions in varying levels of fidelity, as the situation warrants – from whiteboard sketches to flow charts to interactive prototypes.

Manage multiple projects simultaneously and meet deadlines.

Mentor less experienced members of our UX team and help them ‘level-up’.
