Working closely with colleagues in Software Engineering, Industrial Design, Human Factors and Product Management, you will advance the definition of J&J's vision for surgical robotics. Every day, you will bring to life experience visions, aligning designs across the team to the roadmap, and crafting the best user experience for the entire medical team. 
 

Surgery is a team sport, so you will be encouraged to become familiar with a range of user types across a variety of clinical specialties. You'll bring your passion for design to a broad range of projects using both internal and external resources. Although the scope of your work is focused on digital interactions, this role should consider the physical experience as well.

  • Build out and ensure adherence to an evolving design system that meets the needs of multiple user interactions
  • Ensure UX team is delivering designs at a high level, including workflows, pixel-perfect screens, and robust documentation, all tying back to applicable user requirements
  • Work with Marketing and project leadership to refine and advise the product roadmap
  • Partner within Software and Robotic Controls to bring life to new insights and functions that improve the surgical operating room
  • Mentor and develop talent of more junior UX Designers on the team

Skills and Experience:

Required:

  • Bachelor's or equivalent experience in Human-Computer Interaction, Digital/Visual Design, Industrial Design or other related field. Masters or other higher level degrees are a plus and will be considered as part of the applicant's professional experience
  • At least 10 years of proven ability to design digital experiences for highly sophisticated systems and/or medical devices (or Masters plus 8 years)
  • 4+ years experience technically leading teams of UX designers in solving problems and generating compelling solutions
  • Experience influencing and leading stakeholders without direct management responsibility
  • Experience with end-to-end product development with multiple products launched
  • Experience producing designs for embedded UIs though touch, sound, 3D vision and/or AR/VR, collaborating with industrial designers and user researchers
  • Proficiency with typical UX design tools (Figma, Adobe Suite, etc.) and prototyping tools (e.g. Protopie, Principle, etc.)
  • Strong portfolio demonstrating an outcome-focused, innovative design process and interaction design expertise
     

Preferred:

  • Familiarity with the regulations of the medical or pharmaceutical industry
  • Experience with AR/VR design

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
