UX Designer

Role Overview

We are seeking a Senior UX Designer - Automotive HMI to craft intuitive, visually rich, and future-ready in-vehicle experiences. This role focuses on designing HMI applications for Infotainment Systems (IVI), blending usability with immersive design through animations, 3D assets, and advanced prototyping techniques.

You will play a key role in shaping next-generation cockpit experiences by collaborating with cross-functional teams across engineering, product, and design.

Key Responsibilities

• Design user-centric, safety-compliant, and distraction-minimized interfaces for in-vehicle environments
• Create high-fidelity UI/UX designs using Figma (Design, Prototype, Dev Mode, and Design Systems)
• Develop micro-interactions and motion design to enhance usability and delight
• Conceptualize and integrate 3D models and immersive visual elements into UI experiences
• Build interactive prototypes to simulate real-world IVI interactions and workflows
• Collaborate with HMI engineers, Unreal/Unity developers, and embedded teams for implementation feasibility
• Define and maintain design systems, component libraries, and UX guidelines
• Conduct user research, usability testing, and iterative design improvements
• Ensure compliance with automotive standards (driver distraction, accessibility, safety)

Required Skills & Expertise

Core UX & HMI Skills

• Strong experience in Automotive HMI / IVI UX design
• Deep understanding of in-vehicle interaction paradigms (touch, voice, gesture, rotary controllers)
• Expertise in information architecture, interaction design, and usability principles

Design & Prototyping Tools

• Advanced proficiency in Figma:
• Design Systems
• Prototyping
• Dev Mode handoff
• Variables & components
• Good to have experience with Adobe Creative Suite (After Effects, Illustrator, Photoshop)

Motion & 3D Capabilities

• Strong experience in motion design and UI animations
• Familiarity with 3D modelling tools (Blender, Maya, or similar)
• Understanding of real-time rendering engines (Unity / Unreal) is a strong plus

Technical Awareness

• Basic understanding of embedded systems (Android Automotive, QNX, Linux)
• Ability to collaborate with developers on implementation constraints and performance optimization

Good to Have

• Experience working on cluster, HUD, or multi-display automotive ecosystems
• Knowledge of design for EV-specific experiences (range, charging UX, energy flows)
• Exposure to AR/VR or immersive cockpit experiences
• Familiarity with automotive UX regulations and standards

What You'll Work On

• Next-gen Infotainment Systems (IVI)
• Connected vehicle experiences
• Immersive 3D and animated UI ecosystems
• Future-forward digital cockpit platforms
