Interactive Designer Jobs in Ohio (NOW HIRING)

FMX is seeking a Senior Product Designer to help us design and rapidly validate solutions with customers using AI-accelerated design and high-fidelity concept builds. As a key member of our product development process, you'll shape the future of our software-creating intuitive, impactful user experiences that align with our mission to simplify facilities management for the public sector.

This role is ideal for a designer who thrives in tight partnership with engineers-working side-by-side during concept creation, where much of the final solution takes shape before we invest in full-scale delivery.

You'll use modern AI-powered tools to explore, prototype, and iterate quickly-while applying strong product judgment, usability expertise, and craft to ensure what we validate is meaningful, testable, and customer-ready.

Responsibilities:

As the Senior Product Designer, you will:

• Work with product managers and engineers to improve the adoption of FMX's products and design new products to solve real customer problems
• Shape designs that fit the business appetite for a project while holding true to user needs
• Co-build AI-accelerated coded prototypes with developers to validate solutions with customers
• Use AI-powered design and prototyping tools to rapidly explore workflows, UI patterns, and content variations while maintaining strong design judgment
• Translate rough concepts into testable artifacts quickly (flows, prototypes, microcopy, edge cases, success metrics)
• Partner with concept builders during build-time to ensure UX quality across states, accessibility, content, empty/error cases, and interaction details
• Design natural language and automated experiences for FMX's AI-powered tools
• Plan and run rapid usability testing on concept builds (formative usability testing / prototype testing / concept validation), synthesize findings, and drive iteration
• Contribute to and help shape our existing design patterns and systems
• Mentor other designers and provide constructive feedback on their work
• Participate in design critiques and present your work to customers, prospects, stakeholders, and FMX leadership
• Stay up-to-date with industry trends and best practices in UX and Product design
• Contribute to the development of product strategy and help drive the direction of specific product areas
• Actively seek opportunities for personal and professional growth

• Validate solutions early with customers using high-fidelity concept builds (interactive prototypes, coded prototypes, and hybrid approaches).
• Partner side-by-side with engineers ("concept builders") during concept creation-ideation, interaction design, prompt-driven exploration, and iteration happen together.
• Work in fast fast cycles: concept test learn iterate.

Requirements

Preferred Experience & Qualities:

• 3-7 years of experience in product or UX design, preferably in SaaS or B2B environments
• Strong portfolio demonstrating your design process and problem-solving skills
• Solid understanding of user-centered design principles and methodologies
• Experience with user research and usability testing
• Experience using analytics/behavior data (e.g., feature adoption, funnel drop-off, in-app surveys) to inform and validate design decisions
• Excellent communication and presentation skills
• Ability to work in teams and independently
• Ability to lead projects with minimal supervision
• Strong sense of ownership and accountability for your work
• Demonstrated experience using AI-assisted design/prototyping workflows to accelerate iteration (show examples in portfolio)
• Strong collaboration skills with engineers, including working in the same iteration loop during prototyping/building (not just handoff)
• Experience planning and conducting formative usability tests on prototypes or concept builds, and turning findings into rapid, practical iteration
• Expertise in Figma is strongly preferred

• A match with our core pillars: Teamwork, Excellence and Integrity
  

What are we looking for in this role?:

• A lifelong learner who stays current with industry trends and actively seeks opportunities for growth and who is willing to share knowledge with their teammates
• A collaborative team player who can effectively communicate with both technical and non-technical stakeholders
• A proactive problem-solver who can identify areas for improvement and develop strategies to address them
• Someone who embodies our core values of Excellence, Teamwork, and Integrity in their work and interactions
• An individual who can contribute to our design culture and help drive improvements in team processes
