With more than 150 employees and 1’500 customers, Flyability is the market leader in the UAS indoor inspection industry.

To complete our creative and dynamic team in Lausanne, we are seeking a:

Senior UX/UI Designer (100%)

Starting date: as soon as possible

Your role:

To own and elevate the user experience across our entire ecosystem, from the app which pilots use when flying the drone to the software they use on their desktop before and after flights to process and make sense of data.

As our first dedicated design hire, you will establish a strong, unified design culture. You will thrive in a low-ego, evidence-based environment where continuous discovery and data-driven decisions translate into outcome-focused requirements.

What you will own:

• Product Ideation & Wireframing: Get involved early in the product discovery phase to map out user journeys, explore alternative UX approaches via wireframes or vibe-coded prototypes when relevant, advocating for the ideal user experience before locking down high-fidelity designs.

• End-to-End Interface Design: Deliver clear, pixel-perfect mockups and dynamic UI prototypes, ensuring developers have precise specifications before development begins.
• Design System Ownership: Create and maintain a global design system from the ground up to ensure consistency and streamline designer-to-developer workflows.

• Usability Testing: Execute usability tests online and in the field to identify UX hurdles and validate ideas directly with customers.

To achieve this, you will partner with Product Managers and Engineers to navigate technical constraints and deliver measurable business outcomes without sacrificing the user experience.
