This role combines strong visual design skills with user-centered product design. They translate clinical workflows and user needs into elegant interfaces, rapid prototypes, and validated experiences across multiple concurrent products while preserving a consistent product-family experience. The UI/UX Designer will be proficient with the entire UX process including discovery, research, ideation, prototyping, and validation. General Responsibilities * Lead end-to-end UX for assigned products from discovery through delivery, ensuring user-centered, validated solutions. * Conduct user research and testing with clinicians and patients; synthesize findings into clear requirements and improvements. * Design and prototype interaction models, wireframes, and high-fidelity UIs to communicate intent and enable implementation. * Maintain a scalable design system and production-ready specs to ensure portfolio-wide consistency and efficient handoffs. * Collaborate cross-functionally with product managers, engineering, human factors, regulatory, legal, security, and marketing to align on safety, usability, and go-to-market needs. * Elevate UI/UX best practices and methodologies by defining, documenting, and sharing standardized design processes, templates, and governance to ensure consistent, repeatable delivery., * Lead discovery activities: run stakeholder interviews, contextual inquiry, and workflow mapping with clinicians and patients * Synthesize research into requirements: create user personas, journey maps, and prioritized UX requirements. * Define information architecture: establish navigation, content hierarchy, and data flows for device and companion applications. * Create interaction models and wireframes: produce low- and mid-fidelity artifacts to validate flows and behaviors. * Produce high-fidelity UI designs: deliver pixelperfect screens, visual assets, and motion cues that reflect brand and clinical needs. * Build interactive prototypes: create clickable prototypes for concept validation, stakeholder reviews, and engineering alignment. * Plan and run UX and usability testing: design test plans, recruit participants, run sessions, synthesize results, and produce actionable reports. * Deliver production-ready specs: provide annotated designs, component specs, and developer handoff artifacts (tokens, assets, logic rules/states, and guidelines). * Maintain and evolve the design system: create reusable components, documentation, and versioning to ensure portfolio consistency. * Define and scale UX operations: establish team best practices, templates, and workflows; support growth of UX maturity across processes, tools, and standards. * Assigned responsibilities may focus more on UI or on UX, or may be a balance of both. ## Related Videos - [ Secure Code Superstars: Empowering Developers and Surpassing Security Challenges Together](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/422-secure-code-superstars-empowering-developers-and-surpassing-security-challenges-together) - [Boost Productivity with AI: Figma & Playwright MCP Workflows - Aris Markogiannakis](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1768-boost-productivity-with-ai-figma-playwright-mcp-workflows-aris-markogiannakis) - [UX is a fullstack job!](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1020-ux-is-a-fullstack-job) - [Bridging the Gap](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/794-bridging-the-gap) - [Fireside Chat with Kris Rasmussen, CTO at Figma](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/982-fireside-chat-with-kris-rasmussen-cto-at-figma) - [Designing the Future of Human<>Agent Collaboration](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1447-designing-the-future-of-human-agent-collaboration) ## Related Articles - [The future is here: How artificial intelligence is influencing UX design](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/65-the-future-is-here-how-artificial-intelligence-is-influencing-ux-design) - [16 Best Free React UI Libraries in 2025](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/148-16-best-free-react-ui-libraries-in-2025) - [Dev Digest 121 - AI goes offline](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/456-dev-digest-121-ai-goes-offline) - [The Most Popular IT Jobs on the Market](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/376-the-most-popular-it-jobs-on-the-market) - [How Developers Can Focus on Maintaining Satisfaction With Accessibility](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/109-how-developers-can-focus-on-maintaining-satisfaction-with-accessibility) - [Dev Digest 132 - Binging WADFlix?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/473-dev-digest-132-binging-wadflix)
