About the company
We're partnering with an ambitious, fast-growing technology client, transforming how software is built and operated in the space industry. Their platforms power organisations across the globe - from universities and space agencies to cutting-edge commercial ventures - helping them develop and run space-based systems faster, more cost-effectively, and more reliably.
Now, as they enter an exciting new phase of growth, they're looking for a talented UX/UI Designer to play a key role in shaping the user experience across a suite of interconnected technical products.
