We are looking for an experienced Product Designer to craft usable, valuable, and delightful user experiences for key applications and tools that enable the manufacturing of every Apple product you know and love. Come join a passionate and skilled group of developers, designers, and product folks that care deeply about our users and the work they do
Description
You should have a passion for product design, UI, and UX; have a knack for digging deep into user problems to understand and empathize with an active and opinionated user base; and drive a team to simple and elegant solutions to hard, complex design problems.
In this role you will:
- Conceive, design, and deliver user experiences and user flows, taking complex user actions and distilling them into usable interfaces
- Collaborate with product managers to balance prioritization and break down features into iterative user stories
- Collaborate with software developers to understand technical limitations and constraints and be able to iterate on solutions and craft viable and usable MVP-style features
- Present and communicate lo-fi mockups, interaction design, hi-fi user flows, prototypes, and other design docs to the product team, stakeholder groups, and organizational leadership
- Be able to clearly articulate design rationale and prioritize feedback to iterate rapidly as we learn more through the design exploration process
- Be able to influence and gain alignment from others while being accountable for bringing critical thinking and product design strategy into all product design work
- Ship experiences that are delightful to our users
- Deeply understand and empathize with our users’ needs and painpoints
Minimum Qualifications
- 10+ years UI/UX experience in a software product team: prototyping, designing, and shipping full-stack software products
- Expertise designing across a diversity of platforms - web, mobile, responsive, AR/VR
- Expertise creating, owning, and evolving the information architecture (IA) of large complex applications
- Expertise in UI/UX wireframing and design tools, such as Sketch and Figma
Preferred Qualifications
- Demonstrated ability of taking a user-centric approach in everything you do to define, test, and iterate on UI/UX (e.g. user research, usability studies, A/B testing)
- Demonstrated ability to build and maintain design systems and frontend component systems at scale
- Excellent written and oral communication skills
- Excellent collaborative skills, and demonstrated ability to work cross-functionality with developers and other designers
- Experience with manufacturing processes, consumer product design, and mechanical engineering is not required - but you must have an interest in learning about these areas and becoming deeply familiar with this domain
