Responsibilities

The product design team at Workato is embarking on an exciting new chapter. We're launching an innovative AI product that will push the boundaries of human-AI interaction. We're seeking a Senior Designer who has shipped exceptional consumer web and mobile applications and is energized by the challenge of crafting novel AI experiences from the ground up.

The product design team at Workato is a tight-knit, collaborative team with a relentless focus on building the best experience for our users. We work fast, are biased toward action, and aren't afraid to fail. Above all, we believe that enterprise UX should have the same usability, reliability, and delight that we have come to expect from consumer apps. We seek experienced UX designers with proven experience crafting consumer-grade experiences and want to bring that same level of polish and sophistication to Enterprise AI interfaces.

You'll work with a passionate group of researchers, designers, product managers, ML engineers, front and backend engineers, QA and technical writers on this new initiative. You'll use your full range of product, interaction, and visual design skills to shape transformative AI experiences from the ground up.

In this role, you will be responsible for:

1. Understanding the scope of requirements and questioning assumptions while working with the team to better understand user behaviors and needs.
2. Organizing and leading projects, ensuring stakeholders' expectations are being addressed while keeping them aligned throughout the project.
3. Translating ideas into viable, quality solutions using the appropriate tooling and fidelity based on the project's state. This can range from low-fidelity drawings to detailed, precise specifications for the UI team.
4. Defining user journeys and task flows for the project when required.
5. Choosing appropriate design patterns and having a strong justification for your choices.
6. Using tools like Figma or CodePen to prototype your ideas and test the micro-interactions in the product experience.
7. Approaching your work with a system and scalability mindset. Always be curious to learn how a design can complement or conflict with other parts of the product.
8. Writing clear, concise product copy for your projects.
