Job summary

Future Talent Group is seeking a UI/UX Engineer to shape interfaces for UAV ground control, telemetry, and configuration systems. You will own the full UX process while delivering hands-on front-end work to support mission-critical platforms.

Join a fast-growing tech team and collaborate with engineers across software, hardware and systems domains to translate complex data into clear, usable interfaces for diverse users.

Qualifications

• Proven experience as a UI/UX Engineer or Product Designer with front-end build capability (not design-only).
• Strong portfolio showing end-to-end UX process, not just visual polish.
• Comfortable designing for complex, data-heavy or real-time systems.
• Solid front-end skills (React or equivalent) to prototype and ship your own designs.
• Confidence collaborating directly with engineers on a fast-moving product roadmap.
• Genuine ownership of UX/UI across a growing product suite, not a single feature.

Responsibilities

• Designing and building user interfaces for UAV ground control, telemetry and configuration systems.
• Owning the full UX process – research, wireframing, prototyping, testing – alongside hands-on front-end implementation.
• Translating complex, data-dense operational information into clear, intuitive interfaces for technical and non-technical users.
• Working closely with software, systems and hardware engineers to ensure UI decisions reflect real operational constraints.
• Iterating based on user feedback from engineers, operators and customers.
• Contributing to and evolving a design system as the product suite grows.
