Design Technologist (Murrysville, PA)

Design Technologist (Murrysville, PA)

Help create digital healthcare experiences that improve how people sleep, breathe, and live.

As a Design Technologist on the Sleep & Respiratory Care Experience Design team, you’ll work at the intersection of experience design and software development. You’ll translate customer and patient needs into intuitive, high-impact digital experiences and build coded solutions that bring those ideas to life.

Working with global, cross-functional teams, you’ll help deliver digital propositions that are safe, scalable, technically feasible, and valuable to the people who use them.

Your role:

• Envision and deliver solutions that align with our business goals while providing safe, intuitive, and delightful user experiences. 

• Conduct and lead analysis of user needs. Create frameworks and interaction concepts across domains. Define the role of product within a broader ecosystem. Establish design principles, experience requirements, and guide teams with clarity and accuracy.  

• Bridge design and engineering by creating functional, coded prototypes and solutions that help de-risk go-to-market, communicate experience intent and explore technical feasibility.  

• Work with cross-functional product-development teams, partnering closely with product managers and product owners to define and validate experiences with customers and patients, and with developers to support its implementation. 

• Bring key design competencies to the cross-functional team, including workflow assessments, design sprint facilitation, concept development, and creation of a consistent brand experience for our customers via use of the Philips Design language and system. 

You're the right fit if:

• You’ve acquired 4+ years of relevant experience with a strong combination of product-design judgment and front-end development capability. You are a UX designer with front-end development skills and proficiency in multiple front-end programming languages. You have depth in at least one language/platform. Back-end languages is a plus. 
• Your skills include:
  • A hands-on approach: you build, test, understand, modify, and evaluate front-end code. You build, not just spec. 
  • Experience translating designs into functional prototypes that demonstrate real interactions and help users, stakeholders, and developers evaluate ideas before full development. 
  • A commitment to both code quality and experience quality, with a demonstrated ability to use research and testing to incorporate user feedback into design decisions. 
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, balanced with visual craft and attention to detail. 
  • Systems thinking: you understand how changes in one part of a product can affect connected devices, apps, and clinical workflows.
  • You can demonstrate proficiency with tools such as:
    • Design: Figma, Sketch, Adobe Creative Suite
    • Development: VS Code, Xcode, Android Studio, Git/GitHub
    • AI-assisted development: Claude Code, Codex, or similar tools
    • Code quality and analysis: linters, SonarQube, Black Duck, or similar tools

• You have a Bachelor's or Master's degree in a relevant field such as design, human-computer interaction, software engineering, computer science, or a related field.
• You must be able to successfully perform the following minimum Physical, Cognitive and Environmental job requirements with or without accommodation for this position. 

• You have a portfolio that demonstrates both design thinking and technical execution: how you moved from a user need to a design concept to a coded experience; how you incorporated feedback; and how your work influenced the resulting product. We are especially interested in examples where AI-assisted tools helped you explore, prototype, or validate an experience more quickly, while maintaining high design and engineering judgment.
• You have an interest in healthcare and personal health. Experience creating software in a regulated healthcare environment is a plus. You have strong communication, storytelling and stakeholder-management skills, with experience working in fast-paced, agile, cross-functional teams. 

How we work together

We believe that we are better together than apart. For our office-based teams, this means working in-person at least 3 days per week. Onsite roles require full-time presence in the company’s facilities. Field roles are most effectively done outside of the company’s main facilities, generally at the customers’ or suppliers’ locations.

This is an office role.
