Responsibilities
- Lead the design and development of the human-machine interface for a mission control platform, covering fleet coordination, situational awareness, and individual vehicle controls.
- Convert multi-source real-time data—including telemetry, sensor inputs, communications, and mission status—into clear, legible interfaces optimized for high-stress conditions.
- Develop 3D and geospatial visualizations tailored to maritime operations, including vessel locations, environmental factors, mission geometry, and threat indicators.
- Investigate and prototype extended reality (XR) interface concepts to shape future operator interaction models.
- Establish and govern a cohesive HMI design system—including typography, color, icons, and motion—optimized for low-light environments and high cognitive load.
- Maintain visual and functional consistency across web, desktop, and XR platforms.
- Create high-fidelity, interactive prototypes to test and validate design concepts prior to engineering handoff.
- Collaborate closely with software engineers to ensure accurate implementation of design specifications.
Benefits
- Work on a novel interface category for a first-of-its-kind autonomous system with no existing design precedents.
- Partner directly with the engineering team responsible for the autonomy stack you are designing around.
- Shape the foundational visual identity and design language of the company.
- Hybrid work model with regular on-site presence in Italy and flexibility for remote work.
- Deliver interfaces that are actively used in real-world maritime missions under demanding conditions.
Work Arrangement
