Job Description

We're looking for a Senior UI/UX Designer to shape the design of a data-intensive digital platform used by a range of stakeholders across the maritime sector. This is a chance to design for complex, operationally-relevant workflows, working from research through to a polished, scalable interface.

You'll work closely with product management, engineering, and our existing design team member, translating complex requirements into clear, usable, and accessible interfaces - as a cross-functional partner rather than in a design silo.

Key Responsibilities

. Conduct UX research and ideation for new MDT product concepts, from problem framing through to design solutions.

. Design interfaces for data-dense, complex digital tools, ensuring designs remain clear and usable for a range of user types and use cases.

. Apply service design principles to ensure coherent, consistent experiences across MDT's different workflows and user groups.

. Design intuitive, accessible user interfaces, and build/maintain a design system for consistency and scalability as MDT's feature set grows.

. Comply with Singapore's Digital Service Standards (DSS) for regulatory alignment.

. Plan and run usability testing with real users, and iterate designs based on findings.

. Manage stakeholder relationships directly - communicating design rationale and trade-offs to non-design audiences, including senior stakeholders.

. Collaborate closely with product managers and engineers as part of a cross-functional squad, from concept through to delivery.

Qualifications & Skills

. 8+ years of UX/UI design experience, with a strong portfolio demonstrating end-to-end design work (research through to shipped product).

. Degree in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), Digital Media, UX/UI Design, or a related field.

. Experience designing for data-dense or operationally-complex digital tools (e.g. dashboards, monitoring tools, enterprise or B2B platforms) is preferred.

. Strong qualitative and working knowledge of quantitative research methodologies.

. Skilled in persona development, user journey mapping, and service design.

. Ability to translate research insight into actionable design strategy and design systems.

. Proficiency in Figma, Adobe XD, or equivalent design tooling.

. Deep understanding of WCAG accessibility standards and inclusive design practice.

. Proficient in usability testing methodologies and iterative refinement.

. Experience working in Agile environments with cross-functional teams.

. Strong stakeholder management skills - able to advocate for user-centred solutions with senior, non-design stakeholders.

Good to have

. Familiarity with 3D/spatial or geospatial platform design, or experience designing for geospatial data products.

. Exposure to Unity 3D or similar real-time/3D engines (no coding required - familiarity with how these environments constrain or enable UI/UX is the useful part).
