About the job

Introduction

Thomas J. Watson said it best: “Good design is good business.” Visualization is critical to discovering data-driven insights and effectively communicating that knowledge to others. Designers at IBM work to create experiences that work together, work the same, and work for our clients. Does the thought of creating the platform at the heart of solutions like Watson, Blockchain, IoT, and Security excite you? If so, read on!

Your Role and Responsibilities

We're looking for a UX/UI Designer who can bring some serious (and fun) design chops to our team of veteran product designers.

As a User Experience Designer at IBM Cloud, you will create human-centered experiences by designing the structural and informational foundation for products, services, and systems. You will facilitate the delivery of all elements, interactions, and decisions that add value to the user experience of IBM Cloud products. You’ll join IBM Studios Bangalore, where we work in a hybrid environment and spend 3 days per week in office to collaborate, learn from each other, and build our design community.

What you’ll do

Work with UX researchers to test concepts with users and integrate findings into the design direction through low and high-fidelity mockups, patterns, prototypes and development-ready specifications

Analyze and creatively solve complex user problems through user interface design, providing a usable, intuitive, efficient experience that has high standards in functionality and aesthetics

Design information architecture, interactions, content, and navigation throughout the product experience, leveraging IBM's well-established design systems to create consistent, delightful client experiences

Collaborate with cross-functional teams and multiple stakeholders, including product management, engineering, sales, marketing to craft UX solutions that aligns with business objectives and user needs

Champion agile and design thinking methodologies and successfully manage projects from start to completion with minimal oversight

Guide more junior designers and participate in UX reviews, critiques and guilds to help develop more effective and rich designs in our community

Demonstrate committed and respectful collaboration between members of cross-functional teams and be part of promoting a positive team culture and work environment

As a UX designer, you might expect your week to look something like this: 75% product design (product, storytelling, & presentations), 15% coordination and learning (meetings & critique) 10% project management

Mastery of design and prototyping tools such as Figma

Strategic thinking with ability to untangle complex information and share it across teams in a digestible format, aligning design goals with business goals

A drive to embrace technical domains and explain the problem space

Solid understanding of fundamental design principles (typography, layout, grid systems, hierarchy, color, composition)

Experience in leading agile practices, design thinking and influencing projects through human-centered design principles

Excellent communication and storytelling skills in English

Ability to work from the office in Bangalore 3 days per week

Preferred Technical And Professional Expertise

Advanced Degree in Design (such as HCI, Interaction Design, Web Design, Graphic Design or related field), or Computer Science
