UI/UX Designer (Wearables & IoT)

We are looking for a UI/UX Designer with experience in small-screen interfaces to design intuitive, high-performance UI experiences for IoT devices. This role requires expertise in small-screen UI, firmware constraints, and interaction principles beyond traditional web and mobile design.

As part of the Innovation Team, you will create seamless, motion-enhanced UI interactions for limited-resolution displays, integrating haptic feedback, gesture-based navigation, and hardware-aware design. The ideal candidate moves fast, adapts quickly, and thrives in ambiguous, high-iteration environments where design decisions may be reviewed at the C-suite level.

Responsibilities

• Design UI experiences for small screens (approx. 1.38-inch resolution) with unique hardware constraints.
• Work within firmware limitations , optimizing UI elements for embedded system delivery.
• Minimize screen reliance through interaction patterns that integrate haptic feedback and gesture-based navigation.
• Ensure usability, accessibility, and performance balance in all UI designs.
• Collaborate closely with engineers to ensure UI is feasible, scalable, and optimized for embedded systems.
• Rapidly prototype and iterate on UI concepts , responding to real-time feedback and business needs.

Requirements

• Experience designing UI for small screens, wearables, or IoT devices .
• Proficiency in Figma, Sketch, or other UI design tools .
• Strong understanding of resolution constraints, touch targets, and motion principles .
• Ability to optimize UI for embedded systems with limited processing power.
• Experience working with haptic feedback and gesture-based interactions .
• Fast-paced, iterative mindset —can design, test, and refine UI quickly.

Soft Skills

• Passion for the Cutting Edge: Excited by emerging technology and designing for new form factors.
• Creative Problem-Solving: Able to design within hardware constraints while maintaining usability.
• Agility & Adaptability: Thrives in fast-moving, high-stakes environments, where designs are reviewed at the executive level.
• Strong Collaboration: Works effectively with engineers, product teams, and leadership.
• Detail-Oriented: Ensures pixel-perfect UI that enhances usability without adding complexity.
• Clear Communication: Can articulate design rationale and technical considerations effectively.

Nice-to-Have Skills

• Experience with graphics delivery for embedded systems and firmware.
• Familiarity with motion-enhanced UI and micro-interactions.
• Knowledge of haptic technology and multi-sensory design.
• Understanding of hardware limitations in wearables and IoT interfaces.
