• Support onsite discovery and design workshops to better understand user problems and translate insights into clear design direction.
• Analyze digital experiences across web and mobile platforms to identify opportunities for consistency, growth, and usability improvements.
• Help maintain and evolve the internal design system, ensuring a consistent experience across applications, devices, and product touchpoints.

The essential requirements of the job include:

• Bachelor's degree in User Experience Design, Human-Computer Interaction, Visual Design, or a related field, with 4+ years of related UX experience.
• Experience creating usable and visually strong designs, including wireframes, prototypes, workflows, and interaction design deliverables.

• Ability to collaborate effectively with product managers, engineers, and cross-functional stakeholders from concept through implementation.
• Proficiency with Figma (or similar tool).

• Experience with industrial design, mechanical design, or physical product usability.
• Experience assessing usability for physical products, devices, or instrumentation.
• Solid understanding of responsive design.
• Experience working in an Agile development environment.
