Senior UX Designer - Health

Senior UX Designer - Health

The Apple Health Special Projects team is looking for a rare kind of designer — someone who operates at the intersection of deep craft, strategic vision, and cross-functional influence. You'll help shape the next generation of health and health research experiences — from working on the Research app and Apple Health Study to designing new, consumer-facing features that give people meaningful ways to participate in, understand, and act on their own health.

Working alongside clinicians, engineers, researchers, and data scientists, you'll solve problems that genuinely matter to people's lives.

• Serve as a design lead across the full product development cycle — from early problem framing through shipping.
• Act as a cross-functional leader and trusted facilitator: partnering with and influencing engineering, clinical, research, and product teams.
• Define and drive design direction across major initiatives, influencing product strategy and technical decisions.
• Establish and evolve design standards, patterns, and principles that elevate the broader team's output.
• Lead through critique - giving feedback that sharpens thinking, not just execution, and creating space for others to do their best work.
• Navigate and resolve complex, ambiguous problems that cross organizational and functional boundaries.
• Identify opportunities to bring emerging technologies - AI, ML, conversational interfaces - into the design process in ways that are genuinely useful, not just novel.
• Mentor and develop designers at earlier career stages, investing in the team's long-term capability.

• 12+ years of experience in UX design, with a portfolio that demonstrates both exceptional craft and strategic impact.
• A track record of leading complex, cross-functional projects from concept to launch with minimal oversight.
• Exceptional communication and presentation skills - able to articulate design rationale to any audience, from engineers to executives.
• Demonstrated ability to influence product direction beyond your direct work.
• Passion for Apple, its products, and the people who use them.

• Experience designing for health, wellness, or other high-stakes, complex, data-rich domains.
• Deep familiarity with emerging technologies: AI/ML, LLMs, computer vision, and conversational UI.
• Experience mentoring designers and contributing to team culture and craft standards.
• Expertise in prototyping, motion, or data visualization.
• Proficiency in Sketch, Figma, Keynote, and related tools.
