Summary（岗位介绍）
In Microsoft Mixed Reality, people—not devices—are at the center of everything we do. Our tech moves beyond screens and pixels, creating a new reality aimed at bringing us closer together—whether that’s scientists “meeting” on the surface of a virtual Mars or some yet undreamt-of possibility. To get there, we’re incorporating groundbreaking technologies, from the revolutionary Holographic Processing Unit to computer vision, machine learning, human-computer interaction, and more.
We’re a growing team of talented engineers, program managers and artists putting technology on a human path across all Windows devices, including Microsoft HoloLens, the Internet of Things, phones, tablets, desktops, and Xbox. Our team has people from a wide variety of backgrounds, identities, previous work histories, life experiences, and we are eager to maintain and grow that diversity. Our varied backgrounds and unique experiences enable us to be better at building the best solutions for our customers and make for dynamic and joyful collaborations with colleagues!
We are looking for an Interaction Designer to come join us in delivering the next wave of Mixed Reality experiences in an exciting new project. In this role, you will combine the holistic thinking of a product designer, the technique of an interaction designer, and the aesthetics of an artist. You will bring your unique perspective to our insights-based process as we seek new ways that technology can empower people and groups to transform the world. You’ll work alongside others in a highly collaborative, cross-disciplinary rapid prototyping environment where we test early, test often, and tirelessly push for the best. You will bring humanity to our long-term planning, systems thinking to our platform, and focused craft to our products. There is no bigger opportunity than defining the foundation of mixed reality computing, communication, and creativity. Apply today!
This team supports our employees in all locations around the country. This job has the option to be remote or located in one of our hubs.
