Software Engineer II (UX / Product Designer, Internal Tooling)

Position Overview

We are seeking a Software Engineer II with strong UX / Product Design experience to support an internal requirements-management platform used by systems engineers, architects, and Technical Program Managers (TPMs) working on XR hardware and software programs.

This role focuses on solving short, well-defined design problems in 1–2 week cycles, translating complex technical workflows into intuitive, scalable user experiences, and delivering development-ready design specifications.

Key Responsibilities

• Design and improve user experiences for internal enterprise tooling and requirements-management platforms.
• Redesign screens, workflows, and interaction patterns for:
• Document creation
• Requirements creation and editing
• Dependency linking
• Requirements coverage views
• Data-dense tables
• Graph and relationship views
• Hierarchies and administrative interfaces
• Conduct user interviews and gather feedback from technical users, including systems engineers, architects, and TPMs.
• Translate complex technical requirements into clear and intuitive workflows.
• Create high-fidelity designs and prototypes in Figma.
• Develop reusable components, variants, and patterns within established design systems.
• Produce detailed, developer-ready design specifications and interaction documentation.
• Manage multiple concurrent design deliverables while working independently.
• Collaborate asynchronously with engineers, product managers, technical stakeholders, and other designers.
• Communicate design decisions, requirements, and trade-offs clearly through written documentation.

Required Qualifications

• 4+ years of professional UX, Product Design, or closely related experience.
• Strong portfolio demonstrating shipped product/design work.
• Experience designing data-dense enterprise applications, internal tools, or technical platforms.
• Strong experience with interfaces involving:
• Complex tables
• Graphs and relationship visualizations
• Hierarchies
• Requirements or dependency management
• Administrative surfaces
• Advanced Figma skills, including:
• Components
• Variants
• Design systems
• Prototyping
• Developer-ready specifications
• Experience interviewing technical or specialized users.
• Ability to independently drive design problems from discovery through final delivery.
• Strong organizational skills and ability to manage multiple short-cycle deliverables.
• Excellent written and asynchronous communication skills.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience working on engineering, developer, systems engineering, or technical enterprise products.
• Experience with requirements-management, systems engineering, hardware/software development, or technical program management tools.
• Familiarity with XR, hardware, software, or other highly technical product environments.
• Experience designing workflows involving complex dependencies and interconnected data.
• Experience collaborating closely with engineering teams on implementation.

Work Style

• Highly self-directed and comfortable working with limited day-to-day supervision.
• Comfortable solving ambiguous design problems within 1–2 week delivery cycles.
• Strong attention to detail and ability to simplify complex technical workflows.
• Comfortable working in a remote, asynchronous environment with teams operating on EST hours.

Interview Process

• Behavioral interview.
• Short design-focused question/exercise.
