Role Overview

We are seeking a Senior UX Designer -- Automotive HMI to craft intuitive, visually rich, and future-ready in-vehicle experiences. This role focuses on designing HMI applications for Infotainment Systems (IVI), blending usability with immersive design through animations, 3D assets, and advanced prototyping techniques.

You will play a key role in shaping next-generation cockpit experiences by collaborating with cross-functional teams across engineering, product, and design.

Key Responsibilities

- Design user-centric, safety-compliant, and distraction-minimized interfaces for in-vehicle environments
- Create high-fidelity UI/UX designs using Figma (Design, Prototype, Dev Mode, and Design Systems)
- Develop micro-interactions and motion design to enhance usability and delight
- Conceptualize and integrate 3D models and immersive visual elements into UI experiences
- Build interactive prototypes to simulate real-world IVI interactions and workflows
- Collaborate with HMI engineers, Unreal/Unity developers, and embedded teams for implementation feasibility
- Define and maintain design systems, component libraries, and UX guidelines
- Conduct user research, usability testing, and iterative design improvements
- Ensure compliance with automotive standards (driver distraction, accessibility, safety)
