At Interaxon, we develop engaging experiences using brain sensing technology. We are a passionate team of researchers, technical experts and scientists building the world’s leading science-based brain platform to empower personal transformation through human-centered innovation. Our Muse and Muse 2 headbands are designed to make meditation easier and provide real-time audio and visual feedback on your meditative state through the Muse companion app.

As a Product Designer at InteraXon you are a design thinker who merges skills in visual design with UX to create beautiful and engaging interactions. You are passionate about creating clean usable interfaces, prototyping clever animated micro-interactions, and articulating complex data through simple visualizations.

While you do tend to get caught up in excitement around chasing your visual ideas, you are just as excited about the prospect of watching people engage with the experiences you create. When things don’t work as expected, you quickly question your assumptions and start work on alternative designs to solve the problem.

What you’ll be doing:

• • Participate in design workshops with the product team where we define and sketch new potential features and products.
  • Design interface concepts for new features and communicate them through wireframes, prototypes and animations which can be presented to the team and tested with users.
  • Create interface prototypes for ongoing research sessions and translate findings into improved user interface iterations.
  • Work with brand guidelines and dialogue with our marketing team to ensure that all interface design concepts align with the visual brand without sacrificing usability.
  • Share your prototypes with application developers to ensure your visual concepts are implemented successfully on native platforms.
  • Keep tabs on other ongoing UX and market research processes (surveys, analytics, ethnography, etc.) to maintain a high-level understanding of product and user experience.
  • Support product management in working with a clear agile task-based workflow and making sure all design work follows proper channels of approval.

Your skills and experience:

• • Excellent tactical visual design skills with a sensitivity to user experience
  • Able to quickly program interactive prototypes of your ideas
  • A deep understanding of Apple’s Human Interface Guidelines and/or Google’s Material Design standards
  • Experience working in a Lean/Agile process
  • Up-to-date with the latest mobile apps, digital product trends, techniques, and technologies
  • You are proactive, independent, and passionate about user centred design.
  • You can clearly present and justify your designs to various stakeholder
  • You have experience articulating your designs to developers
  • Bachelor’s or Master’s level education in Graphic Design, Visual Design, Interactive Design, Human-Computer Interaction, Interaction Design, or related
  • 3+ years of work experience in UX or product design for software with a strong portfolio
  • Proficiency in creating mockups, rapid prototypes and animations using Sketch, Invision, Adobe Creative Suite
