JN -102026-109217

Responsibilities:

  • Lead end-to-end design for healthcare provider experiences across prescription CGM products from problem framing and workflow mapping through high-fidelity design, technical flows, documentation, approvals, and delivery.
  • Develop a strong understanding of provider workflows including patient onboarding, glucose data review, follow-up care, treatment decision support, therapy adjustments, and coordination across care settings.
  • Translate continuous glucose data, trends, alerts, and system states into clear, actionable provider experiences that support safe and appropriate clinical decision-making.
  • Partner with Product, Engineering, User Research, Human Factors, Regulatory, Quality, Medical Affairs, and Legal to define user needs, requirements, feasibility, risk controls, labeling considerations, and approval needs.
  • Plan and support provider research, contextual inquiry, usability testing, and Human Factors activities, and synthesize findings into design direction and risk mitigations.
  • Facilitate workshops and present recommendations to cross-functional teams and leadership, communicating the problem, evidence, tradeoffs, rationale, and next steps.
  • Mentor designers and contribute to a culture of design excellence, constructive feedback, and continuous improvement.

Experience Requirements:

  • 6+ years of UX or product design experience with prior Senior or Lead responsibility on complex digital health, medical device, clinical software, or other regulated products.
  • Provider-facing healthcare UX with experience designing for healthcare professionals and complex clinical workflows.
  • Demonstrated end-to-end product design across problem framing, workflow mapping, interaction design, usability testing, rationale, documentation, and cross-functional approvals.
  • Strong portfolio showing translation of complex health data into actionable experiences. Proficiency in Figma and familiarity with iOS, Android, accessibility, and design systems.
  • Experience with regulated medical device software, prescription digital health products, Human Factors or usability engineering, WCAG guidelines, and healthcare data visualization preferred.
  • Ability to work in a collaborative, regulated, fast-paced environment, manage schedules, prioritize work, communicate tradeoffs, and meet deadlines.
  • Disqualifiers include portfolios focused only on visual/UI without process, experience limited to non-clinical consumer domains, patient-only work without provider workflows, inability to explain ownership and outcomes, or lack of mobile and Figma proficiency.

Education Requirements:

Bachelor’s degree in HCI, Interaction Design, Product Design, Industrial Design, Cognitive Science, Human Factors, or related field.
