Product Designer
About The Position
Sirona Medical is seeking an early-career Product Designer to help create software that enables radiologists to work more efficiently. The designer will join a small, senior design team and learn to design complex, high-stakes software while taking on meaningful ownership. The role reports to the Director of Product. The preference is for candidates based in Burlington, Vermont, or the San Francisco Bay Area, working in a hybrid model between a Sirona office and home. The designer will explore user problems, sketch, prototype, and test solutions alongside clinicians, researchers, engineers, and product managers. Initial work will focus on well-scoped problems with support from a senior designer, expanding to larger parts of core workflows over time. Radiology experience is not required; Sirona will provide clinical onboarding and prioritizes curiosity and design fundamentals. The annual U.S. base salary range is $95,000 to $105,000, plus equity and benefits. Compensation may vary based on experience, work location, and job-related skills.
Requirements
- Demonstrated curiosity, including asking why, investigating how people work, and willingness to learn a complex domain.
- Proficiency with Figma, including components, auto layout, and prototyping.
- Comfort using AI tools such as Claude to help build prototypes.
- Ability to collaborate, seek input early, value feedback, and provide thoughtful feedback to others.
- Ability to explain design decisions and their rationale verbally and in writing.
- Some familiarity with user research methods to support discovery.
- Solid grounding in UX fundamentals, including user flows, information architecture, interaction design, usability, and accessibility.
Nice To Haves
- 0 to 2 years of professional UX or product design experience, including internships, apprenticeships, freelance work, or substantial project work.
- A portfolio showing the end-to-end process (problem, exploration, iteration, and outcome) for at least two web or desktop application projects; student and personal projects are welcome.
- Bachelor's degree in design, HCI, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
- Internship or project experience in healthcare, MedTech, or another complex, expert-user domain.
- Experience with data-dense or desktop-first interfaces.
- Exposure to design systems through use or contribution.
- Familiarity with AI- or machine-learning-driven product experiences.
- Comfort reading basic front-end concepts such as HTML/CSS and component libraries to collaborate with engineers.
- Experience running or supporting usability tests.
Responsibilities
- Represent users in product decisions by bringing context and detail from research and observation.
- Collaborate with product management, engineering, and clinical colleagues to define, prototype, test, and refine solutions.
- Sketch, wireframe, and prototype at low and high fidelity in Figma, moving quickly from ideas to testable concepts.
- Use AI tools such as Claude to accelerate exploration and build working prototypes, then test them with clinicians and refine them using design judgment.
- Participate in user research and usability sessions, and translate findings into design changes.
- Develop information architecture, interface, and interaction patterns for dense, desktop-first workflows.
- Prepare clean engineering handoffs with organized, annotated, and well-documented designs.
- Review shipped work through design QA to confirm it matches the intended design.
- Contribute components and documentation to Sirona's in-house design system.
