- Strong portfolio showcasing UX flows, prototypes, and visual design for mobile or IoT experiences.
- Mastery of design tools (Figma, Adobe XD, After Effects, Miro, etc.) and modern prototyping frameworks.
- Deep understanding of user psychology, usability heuristics, and interaction models.
- Experience designing for ecosystem products — multi-device interactions, onboarding flows, automation setup, etc.
- Working knowledge of responsive design, design tokens, accessibility (WCAG), and micro-interactions.
- Ability to collaborate with cross-functional teams — product, engineering, industrial design, and QA.
- Strong communication and presentation skills with a design-led mindset.
Bonus Attributes:
- Experience designing for Matter or IoT ecosystems (multi-controller interfaces, device onboarding, home automation).
- Understanding of embedded UI/UX for devices (touch panels, displays, control hubs).
- Familiarity with motion design, iconography, and brand systems.
What You'll Get- Opportunity to build and lead a design-led product portfolio from scratch.
- Work in a cross-functional, innovation-first environment.
- Design experiences that blend hardware, software, and intelligence.
