Senior Product Designer
Job Description
Hyperscience is hiring a Senior Product Designer who will join a team building new capabilities into the Hyperscience platform. This Designer will apply user-centered design methods, lean product principles, work closely with a team of Engineers and PMs, along with cross-functional partners throughout the company.
Designers in this role will be immersed in a host of emerging technologies that come with complex design challenges. They will collaborate with machine learning engineers, design human-in-the-loop interactions, and work with users and stakeholders at large enterprises that make up the Hyperscience customer base. Candidates will learn these concepts on the job and need not be experts in machine learning or automation to apply.
Hyperscience Designers work end-to-end in the product lifecycle: perform research to discover user pains and needs, prototype and test solutions, and design visual artifacts to communicate those solutions to Engineers. Candidates should have some proficiency in design research as well as UX and UI design in complex web applications.
