About the job:

At Google, we follow a simple but vital premise: "Focus on the user and all else will follow." Google’s Interaction Designers take complex tasks and make them intuitive and easy-to-use for billions of people around the globe. Throughout the design process—from creating user flows and wireframes to building user interface mockups and prototypes—you’ll envision how people will experience our products, and bring that vision to life in a way that feels inspired, refined, and even magical.

Google User Experience (UX) is made up of multi-disciplinary teams of UX Designers, Researchers, Writers, Content Strategists, Program Managers, and Engineers: we care deeply about the people who use our products. The UX team plays an integral part in gathering insights about the attitudes, emotions, and behaviors of people who use our products to inspire and inform design. We collaborate closely with each other and with engineering and product management to create industry-leading products that deliver value for the people who use them, and for Google’s businesses.

As an Interaction Designer, you’ll rely on user-centered design methods to craft industry-leading user experiences—from concept to execution. Like all of our UX jobs, you’ll collaborate with your design partners to leverage and evolve the Google design language to build beautiful, innovative, inspired products that people love to use.

Google Ads is helping power the open internet with the best technology that connects and creates value for people, publishers, advertisers, and Google. We’re made up of multiple teams, building Google’s Advertising products including search, display, shopping, travel and video advertising, as well as analytics. Our teams create trusted experiences between people and businesses with useful ads. We help grow businesses of all sizes from small businesses, to large brands, to YouTube creators, with effective advertiser tools that deliver measurable results. We also enable Google to engage with customers at scale.

Responsibilities:

• Drive the design process from initial concept to execution, delivering high-quality, visually compelling, and user-friendly experiences in a changing, adaptable environment.
• Partner closely with Product Management, Sales, and Engineering teams to develop a user-centered product goal, gather insights, and ensure alignment throughout the development life-cycle.
• Identify and explore complex workflows, leveraging opportunities for simplification and Artificial Intelligence (AI) integration, while taking ownership of the design process to develop practical and inventive solutions.
• Create and iterate on a wide range of design assets, including concept sketches, user journeys, low and high-fidelity designs, interactive prototypes, and detailed visual specifications.
• Play a pivotal role in ensuring visual consistency and aesthetic appeal across all user experiences.
