About Gradera — Digital Twin & Physical AI Platform
At Gradera, we are building a next-generation Digital Twin and Physical AI platform that enables enterprises to model, simulate, and optimize complex real-world systems. Our work brings together strategy, architecture, data, simulation, and experience design to power decision-making across large-scale operational environments such as manufacturing, logistics, and supply chain networks.
This platform-led initiative applies AI-native execution, advanced simulation, and governed orchestration to help organizations test scenarios, predict outcomes, and continuously improve performance. We operate with an enterprise-first mindset prioritizing reliability, transparency, and measurable business impact as we build intelligent systems that scale beyond a single industry or use case.
UX Engineer – Senior
Overview
We are seeking a high-caliber Senior UX Engineer to join our Digital Twin Platform and Simulation team. In this role, you will be the technical anchor for the design squad, ensuring that our simulation-ready platforms are built to the highest standards of engineering excellence. We are looking for a specialist who can work independently to bridge the gap between complex simulation data and intuitive, human-centric design.
Our Core Design & UX Stack
Design & Prototyping
- Figma (Advanced) for high-fidelity prototyping, design systems, and modular component design
- Material UI (MUI) design guidelines for consistent, scalable interface patterns
- Prototyping tools for simulating real-time data flows and interaction models
Research & Strategy
- User Research & Usability Testing methodologies to validate simulation workflows
- Design Workshops for requirement discovery and cross-functional ideation
- Interaction Design focused on complex data manipulation and 3D/Spatial contexts
Standards & Delivery
- ESRI GIS UI patterns for geospatial data visualization and mapping interfaces
- Accessibility (WCAG) standards to ensure inclusive digital twin experiences
- Design-to-Developer Handoff processes using tokens and structured documentation
Key Responsibilities
- Low-Level Design (LLD) for UX: Create detailed interaction specs, wireframes, and task flows that account for the technical constraints of real-time simulation engines.
- Design System Governance: Build and maintain a robust, accessible component library in Figma that aligns with Material UI guidelines and supports our digital twin ecosystem.
- GIS Interface Design: Design specialized UI patterns for ESRI GIS integrations, focusing on map-based interactions, layer management, and spatial data clarity.
- Autonomous Prototyping: Independently develop advanced interactive prototypes that demonstrate complex simulation states, including real-time alerts and time-series data transitions.
- Usability & Research: Lead user research sessions and usability testing with simulation engineers to identify friction points in the digital twin workflow.
- Design Workshops: Facilitate collaborative design sprints and workshops to align stakeholders on product vision and user-centric priorities.
- Accessibility Leadership: Audit and implement WCAG-compliant design patterns, ensuring the platform is usable for all profiles across the organization.
- Developer Collaboration: Own the handoff process, providing developers with clean assets, CSS logic, and interaction documentation to ensure pixel-perfect implementation.
Preferred Qualifications
- 8+ years of professional experience in UX/UI design, with a strong portfolio showcasing complex data-driven applications.
- Advanced mastery of Figma, including variables, auto-layout, and complex prototyping.
- Proven ability to work independently and lead design initiatives from discovery to handoff.
- Deep understanding of Material UI principles and Responsive Design for high-density data dashboards.
- Strong experience in Interaction Design specifically for technical or industrial software.
- Excellent communication skills for presenting design rationale to technical architects and business stakeholders.
Highly Desirable
- Experience designing for Digital Twin, IoT, or Simulation platforms.
- Familiarity with ESRI GIS UI patterns and geospatial data visualization.
- Basic understanding of React/TypeScript to facilitate better collaboration with Frontend Engineers.
- Experience working in scaling design processes within product-led organizations.
- Exposure to industrial domains such as Manufacturing, Logistics, or Transportation is a plus.
