London, ENG
Crane Authentication, part of Crane NXT, partners with businesses and governments to protect products, identities and revenues while helping ensure compliance. The team behind this role operates within a large, global organization, Crane NXT is a $2 billion company with more than 5,000 associates. This is a chance for a UX UI designer who likes turning complex data into clear, usable experiences to join a team focused on security design, data-driven insights and sophisticated information design. The London-based role is listed as onsite, with travel to other Crane Authentication sites in the UK, and the working hours note that the role can be remote at times and may involve shift patterns or on-call rotations. If you enjoy shaping dashboards and workflows that make sense of big datasets, you may feel right at home here.
The Product Designer will own the end-to-end user experience for multiple platforms and initiatives, collaborating closely with Product Owners and Technical Leads. Your work will translate intricate operational, compliance and supply chain data into intuitive, visually engaging interfaces that help users quickly spot anomalies, trends and opportunities for action. You’ll sit at the crossroads of Product, Engineering and User Experience, blending information design, visual storytelling and user-centered methods to simplify very complex business processes.
Turning complex data into clear interfaces
In this role, you’ll lead the UI and UX efforts across key platform initiatives, partnering with engineers, product managers and stakeholders to understand problems and shape practical solutions. You’ll craft dashboards, workflows and visual analytics that distill heavy data into digestible, actionable visuals, and you’ll produce wireframes, prototypes and high-fidelity designs when appropriate. You’ll help establish pragmatic design standards and reusable systems, drive usability testing, and push for iterative improvements. The job requires you to balance user value with technical realities and delivery timelines, advocate accessibility and responsive design, and act as a trusted adviser to engineering and product leadership while juggling multiple initiatives at once.

Advice for applicants
First, lead your resume with the work most relevant to this role. Open with a concise summary of enterprise-grade UX work you’ve done, especially dashboards, data visualization and any security- or compliance-focused projects, and feature a standout case study at the top that shows your impact on business goals. If you’ve designed for analytics-heavy products, spotlight those experiences and quantify outcomes wherever you can.
To prove you meet the must-haves, curate a portfolio that demonstrates collaboration with product owners and engineers in Agile settings. Include examples where you built or contributed to design systems, produced wireframes and prototypes, and delivered accessible, responsive interfaces. Emphasize dashboards or visual analytics you’ve designed, and note any design-system governance you’ve led or contributed to.
In interview prep, be ready to discuss how you balance user value with technical constraints and timelines, and to talk through your process for usability testing and iterative improvement. Be prepared to explain how you simplify complex data without masking essential details, and how you ensure accessibility and responsive design across platforms. Have a case study ready that shows an end-to-end design process from discovery through validation to implementation.
A good question to ask in interviews is how the team evolves its design standards and design systems over time, especially in a security-centric product. You could also ask how cross-team collaboration works when managing multiple initiatives, and how they measure the impact of dashboards on user actions and operations.
