Lucent Technologies requires a UI Designer or Usability Engineer to join a
team working in Swindon, UK. The team is part of a systems engineering group
aiming to design world-beating management systems for Mobile Telephone
Networks.
The post would suit someone with a Masters level qualification or
experience, although a 'senior' level appointment is possible for the right
candidate. The successful applicant will undertake a broad range of task
analysis, user-centred interface design and usability activities to support
development in Java, C++, or web-based technologies. Any necessary
telecommunications training will be given by Lucent. An attractive salary
and benefits package will be offered, and the company may assist with
relocation costs.
Principal responsibilities include:
* Researching the target users and their tasks
* Defining user requirements in a highly technical field
* Close collaboration with other members of the development
and product management teams
* Developing user interface design specifications
* Constructing prototypes using paper or RAD techniques
* Monitoring the implementation of the user interface design
* Providing mentoring and guidance to other members of the
systems engineering group
* Assisting with the maintenance and refinement of product
features
* Promoting usability issues throughout the organisation
Candidates should be happy to work on their own initiative and should be
capable of analysing technical literature. They should be willing to
undertake the full range of work from screen design to requirements writing
to user task analysis. Some foreign travel may be required. Experience of
software development, visual design, and of UI prototyping tools will be an
advantage. Excellent communication and negotiation skills are essential.
