Responsibilities

• Leading the end-to-end design process across all platforms: wireframes, prototypes, and final UI assets ready for engineering handoff
• Designing best-in-class interfaces for recreational boat control, commercial vessel subsystems, and customer service experiences, spanning both Arc Sport (consumer) and Tug/Ferry (commercial)
• Designing a compelling website that represents Arc’s premium brand
• Building and maintaining a design system and style guide that scales cleanly across consumer and commercial products
• Partnering with product and engineering to define requirements, build prototypes, and iterate based on technical constraints and user feedback
• Running user research and usability testing
• Iterating fast, whether you’re in Figma or on a boat

Requirements

• 5+ years of experience in UX/UI design, ideally for complex digital products in the software-defined hardware world (Mobile, Web, or Embedded systems)
• Demonstrated ability to function as a Product Designer who understands business logic and engineering trade-offs
• A proven track record of setting product vision through design, with concrete examples of taking qualitative and quantitative research and synthesizing it into design solutions
• Fluency across the modern design toolchain (Figma, Sketch, Adobe Creative Suite, etc.), and experience using AI tools as a force multiplier and creative engine
• Comfort working in a fast-paced environment with shifting priorities
• Strong communication skills and the ability to receive and apply feedback
