Position Overview
We are seeking a multidisciplinary UX/UI Designer to create usable, reliable, and visually compelling user experiences for embedded hardware products. The designer will guide projects from customer analysis and concept development through prototyping, testing, visual design, and implementation, balancing customer needs, business objectives, marketing aesthetics, and target-hardware constraints. This role also serves as the owner and aesthetic curator of the NTX brand, establishing and maintaining the look, feel, tone, and visual quality of NTX-branded messaging, materials, and customer touchpoints. The ideal candidate will use modern design and AI tools to improve productivity, accelerate the conversion of concepts into mission-ready deliverables, and create reusable solutions. Success is measured by usability, functional clarity, visual consistency and originality, implementation readiness, adherence to customer and NTX brand standards, and reduced user confusion and support requirements.
Key Responsibilities
· Design and deliver end-to-end customer experience solutions across multiple products and platforms—from assessing customer needs through concept development, feature definition, prototyping, implementation, and response to customer feedback.
· Create user-interface designs for commercial applications and industrial embedded touchscreen systems, ensuring usability, functionality, visual quality, consistency, and continuity.
· Translate customer requirements and industry expertise into practical, intuitive, and visually engaging solutions that balance customer needs, business objectives, and target-hardware capabilities.
· Use site maps, navigation maps, page flows, sketches, storyboards, user scenarios, wireframes, and interactive prototypes to communicate and validate design intent.
· Collaborate with customers, product managers, software and hardware engineers, project managers, and quality assurance personnel throughout the design and development process to deliver feasible, implementation-ready designs.
· Support customer-insight initiatives, including focus groups, design validation, usability testing, observational research, and the collection and application of customer feedback.
· Leverage AI tools to optimize work, convert designs into mission-ready deliverables, and build reusable tools, workflows, and assets that improve speed, quality, and consistency.
· Serve as owner and aesthetic curator of the NTX brand, maintaining a consistent visual identity, tone, and standard of quality across all branded communications and customer touchpoints.
· Develop, maintain, and apply NTX brand standards, templates, style guides, design systems, and reusable visual assets across digital, print, product, sales, marketing, and corporate communications.
· Create and curate content for NTX websites, presentations, product collateral, social media, videos, trade shows, internal communications, and other branded media.
· Select, direct, and manage third-party content creators, designers, photographers, videographers, and agencies; review deliverables for brand consistency, accuracy, quality, and business relevance.
· Partner with internal stakeholders to identify content needs, develop creative concepts, prioritize deliverables, and maintain an organized content pipeline and asset library.
Qualifications
· Two or more years of professional digital visual design, UX/UI design, or related experience.
· Strong visual design capabilities supported by a portfolio demonstrating user-interface design, brand development, and marketing content creation.
· Experience developing storyboards, concepts, wireframes, user-process flows, navigation structures, prototypes, and related design artifacts.
· Proficiency with prototyping and wireframing tools and visual-design applications such as Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator; proficiency in Figma is preferred.
· Experience creating marketing and brand content across digital and print channels, including websites, presentations, product collateral, social media, video, trade-show materials, and corporate communications.
· Experience using Claude, Microsoft Copilot, ChatGPT, or other AI tools to enhance capabilities, improve productivity, develop reusable solutions, and solve problems.
· Strong understanding of visual storytelling, typography, layout, color, imagery, content hierarchy, and the application of brand standards and style guides.
· Ability to translate technical product information and business objectives into clear, compelling, and visually engaging content.
· Ability to communicate design rationale and present concepts and solutions compellingly to customers, leadership, engineers, and other stakeholders.
· Demonstrated ability to solve design and usability challenges creatively and effectively within technical, budgetary, and schedule constraints.
· Current knowledge of UI, UX, digital-content, visual-design, and AI-assisted design trends, techniques, tools, and technologies.
· Experience designing interfaces for embedded touchscreen products, industrial systems, or commercial applications is preferred.
· Experience directing third-party creative professionals or agencies is preferred.
· Experience with Qt or Crank Storyboard is a plus; HTML5 experience is strongly preferred.
· BFA, BS, or MS in Graphic Design, Human-Centered Design, Interaction Design, User Experience Design, or a related field is preferred.
