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. xkybehq

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.
