About the job

In this role, you will be embedded with a team of research scientists, software engineers, and product managers to develop UX strategy for the future of capture, imaging, and video, through UX visioning, mocks, and working prototypes, focusing on the goals and testing of an AI-powered camera. You'll be at the forefront of research ideas and will have the challenge of turning those ideas into tangible concepts and working functions to test internally and with users. We will turn those working prototypes into plans of record with our product partners, where your designs can influence the way these experiences come to life in Google products, including Google Pixel, AR/VR, Google Photos and Gemini.

You will also be involved in UX strategy, thinking though, and illustrating how we can connect experiences across imaging teams, product areas and surfaces. You will help to validate some of those ideas by creating high fidelity mocks and prototypes that can be tested in market research to gain confidence in our plan.

Google Research addresses challenges that define the technology of today and tomorrow. From conducting fundamental research to influencing product development, our research teams have the opportunity to impact technology used by billions of people every day.

Our teams aspire to make discoveries that impact everyone, and core to our approach is sharing our research and tools to fuel progress in the field -- we publish regularly in academic journals, release projects as open source, and apply research to Google products.
