About the role

Senior Product Designer to craft intuitive, high-impact tools powering Apple’s environmental stewardship, manufacturing, and AI-enabled enterprise platforms. Focus on turning dense data into clear interfaces, designing human-centered AI experiences, and collaborating closely with engineering.

Responsibilities

  • Shape Critical Systems: Own end-to-end design across diverse product surfaces, including carbon/material lifecycle modeling systems, vendor-facing manufacturing design systems, and generative AI productivity tools.
  • Transform Data into Action: Architect information hierarchies and workflows that make dense technical and operational data frictionless to discover, query, and interpret impact on user speed and accuracy.
  • Modernize Pre-AI Workflows: Reimagine established, mission-critical systems into intelligent, AI-augmented experiences that empower existing power users without disrupting their operational rigor.
  • Design Human-AI Collaboration: Formulate novel interaction patterns for AI and machine learning tools, establishing trust, transparency, graceful failure states, and human-in-the-loop oversight.
  • Uncover Hidden Needs: Partner directly with specialized internal and external users (engineers, operations leads, data scientists, vendors) to decipher what they truly need, rather than simply executing what they initially ask for.
  • Work Code-Adjacent: Partner shoulder-to-shoulder with software engineers in repos and sprints—translating interaction patterns directly into implementation, maintaining system consistency, and contributing code or pull requests when needed.
  • Design with Velocity: Leverage modern AI-assisted tools and rapid prototyping methods to collapse the distance between user research, concept exploration, and deployed software.

Qualifications

  • 8–10+ years of product design (UI/UX) experience shipping complex, data-dense software tools, web platforms, and operational systems.
  • Proven track record designing data-intensive workflows (analytics platforms, scientific/modeling tools, enterprise workflow engines, or developer platforms) with demonstrable user and business impact.
  • Demonstrated experience designing for AI/ML-driven features and systems—navigating probability, confidence scores, recommendations, and conversational or agentic interfaces.
  • Hands-on experience integrating AI into your own design workflow to accelerate user research synthesis, rapid prototyping, and production-ready handoffs.
  • Fluency with front-end architectures and component libraries; track record of collaborating deeply with engineering teams, including familiarity with Git workflows and opening/reviewing pull requests (PRs).
  • Mastery of modern design and prototyping tools; rapidly test ideas using AI assisted tooling.
  • Transformational Design: Experience leading the migration or modernization of legacy, pre-AI software suites into next-generation intelligent platforms.
  • System-Level Thinking: Experience building, scaling, and documenting design systems used across multi-team or external vendor ecosystems.
  • Scientific or Operational Domain Curiosity: Prior exposure to supply chain, manufacturing, or environmental/sustainability modeling (carbon accounting, LCA, materials science) is a plus—but an eagerness to dive deep into these technical domains is essential.
  • Creative & Analytical Versatility (The Unicorn Bonus): Able to explore raw datasets and validate user pain points yourself; world-class brand/visual craft capable of designing a sharp, memorable tool icon or team identity mark.
