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.

* 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.
