UX/UI Designer (Aerospace industry)

Edinburgh (Hybrid)

Sadly no sponsorship available.

We're partnering with an ambitious, fast-growing technology client, transforming how software is built and operated in the space industry. Their platforms power organisations across the globe - from universities and space agencies to cutting-edge commercial ventures - helping them develop and run space-based systems faster, more cost-effectively, and more reliably.

Now, as they enter an exciting new phase of growth, they're looking for a talented UX/UI Designer to play a key role in shaping the user experience across a suite of interconnected technical products.

This is more than a design role. It's an opportunity to influence how complex, technical systems become intuitive, accessible and genuinely enjoyable to use.



The Opportunity

You'll work at the heart of the Technology & Product Futures team, collaborating closely with product managers, engineers and stakeholders to:

  • Shape user journeys across multiple products

  • Conduct meaningful UX research and usability testing

  • Translate complex requirements into simple, elegant solutions

  • Design wireframes, prototypes and high-fidelity interfaces

  • Contribute to and evolve a scalable design system

  • Ensure accessibility, consistency and quality across the product suite

You'll be trusted to take ownership of defined problem spaces, delivering thoughtful, well-executed solutions while contributing to the ongoing evolution of design practices.



What We're Looking For

  • 2+ years' experience in UX/UI design for digital products

  • Strong command of tools such as Figma, Sketch or Adobe Creative Suite

  • Solid understanding of UX principles and accessibility standards

  • Experience conducting usability testing and synthesising insights

  • Ability to design polished, intuitive interfaces with minimal oversight

  • Confidence collaborating cross-functionally in a fast-paced environment

Bonus points for:

  • Knowledge of HTML, CSS or basic JavaScript

  • Experience in complex or highly technical domains

  • Hands-on moderation of user research sessions



Why Join?

  • Be part of a high-growth, innovation-driven company

  • Work on meaningful, technically sophisticated products

  • Contribute within an employee-owned culture where your voice matters

  • Join a collaborative team that values curiosity, respect and bold thinking

  • Hybrid working with regular collaboration in Edinburgh

If you're a designer who thrives on solving complex problems, values thoughtful collaboration, and wants your work to power real-world innovation - I'd love to hear from you.
