Role Overview

We are looking for a Creative UX Designer with a minimum of 2 years of experience to design concepts, wireframes, and iteratively evolve them into high-fidelity designs for our supply-chain robotics solutions. The ideal candidate will have a strong foundation in user-centered design principles, experience creating intuitive interfaces for complex systems, and a passion for translating user needs into engaging designs.

Responsibilities

  • Create innovative design concepts that align with user needs and business goals for robotics interfaces and related software applications.
  • Produce clear and detailed wireframes to outline user flows, layouts, and interaction patterns for robotic systems and software interfaces.
  • Evolve wireframes into high-fidelity designs through iterative feedback loops, ensuring usability, accessibility, and visual appeal.
  • Work closely with UX researchers, product managers, and engineers to incorporate user insights and technical constraints into design solutions.
  • Build interactive prototypes to test and validate design concepts with stakeholders and end-users.
  • Partner with UX researchers to conduct usability tests and incorporate feedback to refine designs.
  • Contribute to and maintain a consistent design system to ensure cohesive user experiences across products.
  • Stay current with UX design trends, tools, and technologies, particularly those relevant to robotics and supply-chain applications.

Requirements

  • Minimum of 2 years of professional experience in UX design, preferably with exposure to complex technical systems, robotics, or supply-chain industries.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Design, Human-Computer Interaction, Graphic Design, or a related field.
  • Proficiency in design tools such as Figma, Sketch, Adobe XD, or similar for creating wireframes, prototypes, and high-fidelity designs.
  • Experience with prototyping tools (e.g., InVision, Figma, or Adobe XD) to create interactive mockups.
  • Strong visual design sense with attention to detail and aesthetics.
  • Excellent communication skills to present and justify design decisions to stakeholders.
  • Ability to iterate quickly based on feedback and work in a collaborative, fast-paced environment.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience designing for hardware-software integrated systems, such as robotics.
  • Knowledge of accessibility standards (e.g., WCAG) to ensure inclusive designs.
  • Familiarity with supply-chain operations or robotics interfaces.
