About the job
At Google, we "Focus on the user and all else will follow." Our Interaction Designers transform complex tasks into intuitive, easy-to-use experiences for billions of people. From creating user flows and wireframes to building mockups and prototypes, you will envision and bring product experiences to life with an inspired, refined, and magical feel. You will join our multi-disciplinary UX team, collaborating with Engineering and Product Management, leveraging user insights to create industry-leading products.
As an Interaction Designer, you'll apply user-centered design methods to craft industry-leading user experiences from concept to execution, working with design partners to evolve the Google design language to build beautiful, innovative products.
We are defining a new paradigm where AI interactions feel intuitively human rather than programmatic. You will collaborate closely with researchers to navigate complex interaction frontiers, balancing aesthetic craft with rigorous Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) principles. As an Interaction Designer on the team, you will solve ambiguous problems involving screen-based and spatial interactions, shaping how these intuitive experiences are delivered in a variety of contexts.
