UX Product Designer

<div class="content-intro"><p>Headquartered in Silicon Valley, California, Archer is a leader in the next-gen aerospace sector building an end-to-end advanced air mobility platform that delivers air taxis, unmanned aircraft systems (“UAS”), aviation-related physical artificial intelligence (“AI”) solutions, and other technologies to customers worldwide across the commercial aerospace and defense sectors.</p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Our sights are set high and our problems are hard, and we believe that diversity in the workplace is what makes us smarter, drives better insights, and will ultimately lift us all to success. We are dedicated to cultivating an equitable and inclusive environment that embraces our differences, and supports and celebrates all of our team members.</span></p></div><p>Archer is best known for Midnight, our electric air taxi. This role isn't on that program. The AI Products Org is building consumer software for people who love to fly: mobile apps, websites, and web apps for flyers, flight enthusiasts, and pilots. We haven't announced what we're building, and we're not going to spoil it in a job posting. What we can tell you: it's a consumer app with a large user base, and the design decisions made in the next year will define the next chapter of growth for the product.</p> <p>That's why we're hiring a UX Product Designer; specifically, someone who has shipped consumer apps that real people download, rate, and decide to keep or delete, and who can take a loosely defined problem and come back with something worth building.</p> <p><strong>What You'll Do:</strong></p> <ul> <li>End-to-end product design for consumer aviation apps on iOS and Android, along with the websites and web apps that support them</li> <li>Design for a wide range of users, from casual flyers and aviation enthusiasts to working pilots who need information that's fast, accurate, and trustworthy</li> <li>Run product explorations: sketch out directions, pressure-test them with users and the team, and kill the weak ones early</li> <li>You'll get context and constraints from Design Leadership, PM and engineering, but the design leadership on your projects is yours</li> <li>Ship to the App Store and Google Play, then keep refining based on how people actually use what you shipped: analytics, experiments, reviews, and user research</li> <li>Raise the bar on craft across the org, through your own work and through feedback on everyone else's</li> </ul> <p><strong>What You Need:</strong></p> <ul> <li>5+ years of product design experience minimum.&nbsp;</li> <li>A track record of shipping features for consumer mobile apps on the App Store and Google Play, ideally at a startup, a big tech company, or both</li> <li>Products you've designed that are live and in users' hands. We will ask about them, in detail: what you decided, what you got wrong, what you'd change</li> <li>Deep fluency in native iOS and Android design (Human Interface Guidelines, Material Design) and strong systems thinking across mobile and web. You know when a pattern should be shared across platforms and when it shouldn't</li> <li>Experience using data to shape design decisions, from engagement and retention metrics to App Store feedback</li> <li>Comfort with ambiguity. If you need a fully scoped ticket before you can start, this won't be a fit</li> <li>A portfolio that shows your thinking, not just polished final screens</li> </ul> <p><strong>Bonus Qualifications:</strong></p> <ul> <li>You're a pilot, student pilot, plane spotter, or all-around aviation nerd. You'd be designing for people like you, and that matters</li> <li>Experience designing consumer apps built around real-time data, maps, or location</li> <li>Experience growing a consumer app: onboarding, retention, subscriptions, or monetization, social posting and marketing collateral</li> <li>Experience working alongside AI/ML teams, or designing products with AI-driven features</li> <li>You've shipped consumer products in a domain with real-world constraints (regulated industries, safety-adjacent, hardware-adjacent) and know how that shapes design</li> </ul> <p><strong>About The Team:</strong></p> <p>AI Products is a roughly 100-person software org inside a company of aerospace engineers, and we expect to grow substantially over the next year. You get the resources and momentum of a real org, but the product development startup culture of a smaller team based in the UK – building for an audience that genuinely cares about flying.</p> <p>If you want to hear more about what we're building before you apply, you can't. Apply, and we'll tell you plenty.</p> <h5><span style="font-weight: 400;">Archer is committed to working with and providing reasonable accommodations to job applicants with physical or mental disabilities, and those with sincerely held religious beliefs.
