Job Description
Job Title: User Experiencen / User Interface (UX/UI) Designer I
Job Duration: 12 months (possibility of extension)
Work Location: Toronto, ON, Hybrid
Research is at the forefront of innovation, exploring cutting-edge technologies and creating future-forward solutions for design and make industries. We are a diverse team of researchers, engineers, and designers dedicated to pushing the boundaries of what's possible in generative design, AI, and advanced manufacturing. Our work often involves creating novel user experiences for complex engineering and design workflows.
The Opportunity:
Research is seeking a talented and experienced HCI & UI Developer to join our dynamic team. You will play a crucial role in shaping the user experience of our next-generation research platforms. This is an exciting opportunity to contribute to foundational UI components that will empower engineers and designers with advanced AI-driven capabilities.
Responsibilities:
Decomposition Canvas Development: Design and implement an intuitive and interactive canvas for mechanical assembly decomposition, enabling users to visually break down complex systems.
HCI for Decomposition: Develop core Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) elements for seamless interaction within the new decomposition canvas, ensuring a fluid and responsive user experience.
Requirements Input UI: Contribute to the UI/UX for capturing requirements, to create a guided and efficient input process.
User Authentication & Project Persistence UI: Implement front-end components for user authentication flows and interfaces for managing per-user project persistence, ensuring a secure and organized user environment.
Interface for Structured Data Editing: Develop initial UI components for editing and interacting with structured data within the new platform context.
Visualizations: Develop controls for simulation output visualization as well as kinematic movement within a 3D CAD modeling context.
Collaborate with Research Scientists: Work closely with research scientists and engineers to translate complex concepts into clear, intuitive, and effective user interfaces.
Iterative Design & Feedback: Participate in iterative design processes, incorporating user feedback and research insights to refine and enhance the UI.
Required Skills & Experience:
Strong UI Development Expertise: Proven experience in building robust, scalable, and user-friendly web applications.
TypeScript/JavaScript Proficiency: Expert-level proficiency in TypeScript and JavaScript.
Modern Web Frameworks: Extensive experience with modern front-end frameworks, particularly Next.js/React.
UI/UX Principles: A strong understanding of user interface (UI) and user experience (UX) design principles, with an eye for detail and aesthetics.
Responsive Design: Demonstrated ability to create fully responsive and adaptive user interfaces that perform well across various devices and screen sizes.
Problem-Solving: Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to translate complex technical requirements into intuitive UI solutions.
Collaboration: Ability to work effectively in a collaborative research environment, communicating clearly with diverse team members.
Bonus Points:
Experience with UI libraries or frameworks for data visualization or graph-based interfaces.
Familiarity with CAD software or engineering design workflows.
Experience with Cursor, Copilotkit or similar AI-assisted development tools.
Experience with 3D web graphics libraries (e.g., Three.js) for visualization purposes.
Python (especially for developing LLM agents with LangGraph and its potential interaction with Copilotkit).
At SPECTRAFORCE, we are committed to maintaining a workplace that ensures fair compensation and wage transparency in adherence with all applicable state and local laws. This position’s starting pay is: $ 52.68/hr.
