About the role:
We're looking for a UI / Visual Design Lead to own the visual direction and high-fidelity execution of our digital products. This role is strongly focused on UI and visual design-including layout, typography, color systems, and design consistency across platforms-and is ideal for a designer who thrives in polished, production-ready interfaces.
You'll work closely with product, engineering, and brand partners to translate requirements into pixel-precise UI designs and scalable design systems. While usability and user context matter, this is not a UX research-heavy role. We're seeking a hands-on visual leader who brings craft, clarity, and consistency to complex product experiences.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead and manage a design concepts for both hardware and software products.
- Define and enforce design standards, design system, and UI patterns to ensure consistency.
- Collaborate with product managers, engineers, and hardware teams to align design strategy with product roadmap.
- Design and iterate on interfaces: embedded device UI, mobile/web, control panels, and other touchpoints.
- Create high-fidelity mockups, prototypes, and design specifications for hardware and software.
- Ensure brand consistency across product lines, reflecting our visual identity in all digital and physical touchpoints.
- Conduct design reviews, provide feedback, and mentor team members.
- Represent the design discipline in cross-functional strategy discussions, advocating for usability, aesthetics, and brand experience.
Benefits / Value to Company
- Cohesive experience: By integrating hardware and UI design under one leader, we deliver a unified, seamless brand experience.
- Consistency and efficiency: A consolidated design approach reduces design debt, speeds up development, and avoids fragmentation.
- Brand elevation: High-quality, cohesive design across touchpoints strengthens brand perception and market differentiation.
- Scalability: As product lines expand, having a lead ensures scalable design systems and processes.
