UX/ UI Designer

HOLOGATE / HGXR is seeking an experienced UX Researcher & UI Designer to develop intuitive, scalable, and user-centered interfaces for enterprise VR training and simulation platforms. This role involves owning UX research and UI design, guiding interfaces from MVP to production-ready products. The systems act as a central control layer for hardware and software, managing complex workflows for multiple user groups in mission-critical environments. The designer will create a unified, future-proof 'One UI' design system balancing usability, scalability, and technical constraints.

Must Have

• Conduct in-depth UX research in close collaboration with Product Management to identify user needs, pain points, and usage patterns
• Create user personas, journey maps, and use cases to ensure a deeply user-centered design approach
• Develop UX hypotheses and design theses based on research insights to guide product decisions
• Design and validate concepts using wireframes, user flows, and interactive prototypes (click dummies)
• Conduct and evaluate user tests to continuously refine and validate design solutions
• Design interface concepts that address complex systems, workflows, and edge-case user scenarios
• Lead the transformation of the existing MVP UI into a unified “One UI” design system across HGXR products
• Continuously evolve and maintain the design system to support new features and long-term scalability
• Advanced experience in UX research, including qualitative and quantitative methods
• Strong UI design skills with a focus on complex, system-driven interfaces
• Proven experience designing and maintaining scalable design systems
• Proficiency with common design, wireframing, and prototyping tools (e.g., Figma, InVision or similar)
• Experience conducting and evaluating user testing sessions
• Track record of contributing to or leading UX/UI projects end-to-end
• Basic technical understanding of HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Java

Good to Have

• Experience working in law enforcement, defense, or other security-critical industries
• Confidence in advocating for user needs in complex stakeholder environments
• Hands-on experience with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript
• Basic understanding of APIs and system integrations
• Experience working with Jira and Confluence

Perks & Benefits
