About The Role

The Humane Design team is dedicated to creating simple, delightful and transformative user experiences. We're passionate about developing innovative yet familiar interfaces that feel like a natural extension of the human experience. We value collaboration across disciplines, from software engineering to hardware design. We're excited to work with designers who see technology as a tool to help people tackle real-world problems.

As a Production Designer you'll craft, refine, and implement cohesive design components across our desktop, mobile, and laser design systems.
