Are you driven by seeing your ideas come to life? Welcome to our exciting and technically intensive world.

Your Role

As a UX Designer with us, you will work closely with architects, developers, product management, and UX professionals in other products. This means that your daily routine will include everything from minute operational stances to very long-term decision-making questions. It is important that you can unhinderedly move between the different levels. Furthermore, you will continuously take a stance on partly abstract requirements with quality attributes such as simplicity, flexibility, stability, maintainability, and reusability. Of course, there is ongoing contact with stakeholders throughout the project, and there is often the opportunity to quickly get the stakeholder's view on the technical solution.

The role of UX Designer with us involves:

• Support for various stakeholders in projects with UX competence
• Being the contact person for UX-related aspects for developers in several different development teams
• Cooperation within various UX forums across the area and department
• Maintenance and development of UX guidelines
• Development of methods and processes for UX-related aspects in product development
• Testing usability with representative users

Regardless of your role in our teams, you have the opportunity to unleash your creativity and innovation capacity, to dare to challenge and test new ideas! To encourage this, we have regular Learning & Innovation Days where you choose what you want to do, as long as it moves you and your team forward!
