Product Designer (UI/UX)
Job Description
Summary
Apple is where individual imaginations gather together, committing to the values that lead to great work. Every new product we build, service we create, or Apple Store experience we deliver is the result of us making each other’s ideas stronger. That happens because every one of us shares a belief that we can make something wonderful and share it with the world, changing lives for the better. It’s the diversity of our people and their thinking that inspires the innovation that runs through everything we do. When we bring everybody in, we can do the best work of our lives. Here, you’ll do more than join something — you’ll add something.
We are looking for an experienced Product Designer to craft usable, valuable, and delightful user experiences for key applications and tools that enable the reliability and efficiency of Apple’s Infrastructure Services. Come join a hardworking and skilled group of developers, designers, and product folks that care deeply about our users and the work they do.

Description
You should have a passion for product design, UI, and UX; have an interest in digging deep into user problems to understand and empathize with an active and opinionated user base; and drive a team to simple and elegant solutions to hard, complex design problems.
In this role you will:
Conceive, design, and deliver user experiences and user flows, taking sophisticated user actions and distilling them into usable interfaces
Collaborate with product managers to balance prioritization and break down features into iterative user stories
Collaborate with software developers to understand technical limitations and constraints and be able to iterate on solutions and craft viable and usable MVP-style features
Present and communicate lo-fi mockups, interaction design, hi-fi user flows, prototypes, and other design docs to the product team, partner groups, and organizational leadership
Clearly articulate design rationale and prioritize feedback to iterate rapidly as we learn more through the design exploration process
Influence and gain alignment from others while being accountable for bringing critical thinking and product design strategy into all product design work
Ship experiences that are fabulous to our users
