Job Description
Own the end-to-end UX and UI design across multiple Apheris products, with a strong focus on usability for drug discovery scientists.Work closely with the Product team and scientific stakeholders to translate product strategy, user needs, and technical constraints into effective design solutions.
Develop wireframes and quick prototypes to test concepts with external users and domain experts, and iterate rapidly based on feedback.
Design and refine production-ready interfaces that balance scientific complexity with clarity and ease of use.
Actively engage with users to understand their workflows and validate design decisions.
