UI Designer

• Design end-to-end user experiences across applications platforms and human-machine interfaces (HMIs) for secure mission-critical environments.
• Translate user needs and technical requirements into clear interactions scalable components and high-quality UI designs including consideration of motion and responsive behaviour across devices (e.g. web to watch) and HMI contexts.
• Produce design outputs including user flows wireframes prototypes and polished interfaces ready for implementation.
• Contribute to and evolve our design system. Review and consolidate existing interface designs to improve consistency scalability usability and alignment with design system standards which you will iterate upon.
• Apply and uphold accessibility and inclusive design standards (e.g. EAA) within all design work.
• Collaborate closely with designers product managers and engineers to deliver usable feasible and compliant solutions.
• Support research activities by applying insights assisting with usability testing and incorporating findings into design decisions.
• Iterate designs based on feedback data and testing within constrained or complex environments.
