Senior Vehicle UX/UI Designer
About The Position
The vehicle user interface team is responsible for building the command center for our ASVs -- the essential tool operators use to monitor and control every mission. Our operators and our customers rely on the vehicle interface to present complex vessel data clearly and intuitively, whether they’re navigating through crowded harbors or operating with limited communication hundreds of miles offshore. As part of the team, you’ll build a deep understanding of our ASVs’ capabilities, the vision behind them, and the realities that operators experience when using them. Armed with this knowledge, you’ll work to design an interface that presents complex vessel data clearly and intuitively and also feels natural to experienced operators and first-time operators alike. You’ll collaborate closely with software engineers, roboticists, test engineers, and field operators to ensure the solutions that you design works smoothly in both theory and practice. As the Senior UX/UI Designer, you will help guide the User Interface Team to refine the next stage of ocean autonomy helm / mission-control software.
