About the job

At Google, we follow a simple but vital premise: "Focus on the user and all else will follow." Google’s Interaction Designers take complex tasks and make them intuitive and easy-to-use for billions of people around the globe. Throughout the design process—from creating user flows and wireframes to building user interface mockups and prototypes—you’ll envision how people will experience our products, and bring that vision to life in a way that feels inspired, refined, and even magical.

Google User Experience (UX) is made up of multi-disciplinary teams of UX Designers, Researchers, Writers, Content Strategists, Program Managers, and Engineers: we care deeply about the people who use our products. The UX team plays an integral part in gathering insights about the attitudes, emotions, and behaviors of people who use our products to inspire and inform design. We collaborate closely with each other and with engineering and product management to create industry-leading products that deliver value for the people who use them, and for Google’s businesses.

As an Interaction Designer, you’ll rely on user-centered design methods to craft industry-leading user experiences—from concept to execution. Like all of our UX jobs, you’ll collaborate with your design partners to leverage and evolve the Google design language to build beautiful, innovative, inspired products that people love to use.

At Fitbit our mission is to help people live healthier lives, and considered, effective, and impactful user experience design is key to us supporting our user's goals.In this role, you will be supporting the design of activity-centered health and wellness experiences in Fitbit.

Fitbit’s mission has always been to help make everyone in the world healthier and now, as part of Google we’ll be able to make health even more accessible to everyone.

Responsibilities

  • Design and validate experiences to support users at the beginning of their journey with Fitbit, through helping them define and work towards their personal health goals and beyond.
  • Work closely with cross-functional peers and partners to craft consistent and connected user experiences across Fitbit's mobile product surfaces.

  • Contribute to the wider UX team culture in EMEA, through participation in UX Critiques, Workshops, and Sprints as we evolve our process and practice.
