About the job
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.
In this role, you will manage, organize and share photos and videos.
You will solve problems in a collaborative environment, drive product and UX strategy, prototype designs, and communicate all while making data-driven decisions that prioritize user value.
Google Photos is a photo sharing and storage service developed by Google.
Photos is one of the most sought after products at Google and is looking for both client-side (web and mobile), with server-side (search, storage, serving) and machine intelligence (learning, computer vision) Software Engineers.
We are dedicated to making Google experiences centered around the user.
Responsibilities
Drive User Experience (UX) design for key sharing flows and establish partnerships with third-party apps.
Translate user needs into compelling designs through user journeys, storyboards, low/high-fidelity mockups, detailed interaction specifications, and interactive prototypes.
Collaborate with product managers, engineers, and cross-functional stakeholders across Google to understand requirements and provide solutions.
Collaborate with User Researchers to develop research hypotheses and actively participate in user research studies, advocating for the prioritization of design-centered changes, refinements, and improvements.
Simplify concepts into clear and relatable narratives representing real user experiences, integrating user feedback and business requirements into ongoing product experience updates.
Manage work in a fast-paced, dynamic environment, delivering clear, detailed design solutions under tight deadlines while maintaining a balance of strategic thinking and attention to detail.
Google is proud to be an equal opportunity workplace and is an affirmative action employer.
We are committed to equal employment opportunity regardless of race, color, ancestry, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, age, citizenship, marital status, disability, gender identity or Veteran status.
