Interaction Design Assistant

Since 1992 our client has used their Contextual Design methodology to design innovative, customer-centered products, business systems, websites, and hardware/software systems. They deliver strategic market characterizations, personas, and full product, website, and system designs all defined by data and tested with users. They take a whole systems view - making their solutions work for the users, the platform, and their clients' business goals.

The Contextual Design methodology is a customer-centered design process taught in universities and used in companies world-wide. The techniques rely on extensive field data as the foundation for understanding users' needs, tasks, and processes in order to design solutions that work.

Our client is looking for Interaction Design Assistants to be based in Concord, MA. Interaction Design Assistants use their visual design skills to work closely with multiple teams, on a wide variety of client projects representing different user activities and technology platforms. Candidates must be passionate about creating products, systems, and websites that really meet the needs of users. Qualified candidates can expect to become Interaction Designers within 1-3 years.

Effective interaction design begins with understanding how people work on a daily basis, which is why their interaction designers are trained in Contextual Design. Design Assistants will be trained in all phases of the Contextual Design process, including field interviews with end users, data interpretation, work modeling and consolidation, visioning, storyboarding, system design, paper prototyping and final visual design. They will use these skills to provide extra hands to the team and support creating deliverables.
