Description

Dyson is taking its line of products to the next level of intelligence through greater environmental and human interaction. To achieve that we need software engineers skilled in manipulating graphic-rich user interfaces, and the software which composes them. As the products get smarter, the need for richer interaction with the user is essential. The intelligence of the machines has grown exponentially in the past few years, with a far greater range of sensors providing data about the environment. The possibilities afforded for greater control of the device require intuitive easy user input methods. Investigating these new technologies, and developing them to the level needed for production is at the heart of this role.

Accountabilities

You'll be working with our New Product Initiative team to create prototypes of new ideas and evaluate novel concepts of product interface. You'll be working with the artistic creative team to bring to life their concepts, to allow them to evaluate the customer experience on new ideas. And then with Product Development to take those ideas to the real market in production-grade software. You'll be responsible for driving forward the future of Dyson's graphical interface, as a visual user experience, and as a new programmatic development methodology. Crafting reliable and robust software solutions to bring that vision to life on production units; developing efficient mechanisms to allow rapid deployment of graphics across a range of compute platforms. It's an exciting role working in the early stages of our product development!
