Software Engineer - Remote

Aptask Global Workforce (AGW) is seeking a Software Engineer for a Remote position with a Leading Technology Firm located in New York, NY. This is a 7+ month contract opportunity.
This role will focus on the user experience for our client's internal requirements management platform used for XR hardware and software programs. The ideal candidate will work with a variety of technical, high-context users, including systems engineers, architects, and TPMs, to make a graph of thousands of requirements legible and safely editable.
Responsibilities:

• Work across a rolling set of focused design problems, typically delivered in 1-2 weeks
• Redesign individual screens and user flows such as document creation, requirement editing, dependency linking, and coverage views
• Improve dense table and graph views, focusing on information hierarchy, filtering, bulk actions, and empty/error states
• Take a short problem statement, scope it independently, and propose an approach before designing
• Turn engineer- and TPM-reported friction (including bugs and feedback) into concrete design fixes
• Produce dev-ready specs and partner with engineers through build and QA
• Sequence your own work against milestones and keep status visible to a distributed team

Requirements:

• 4+ years of UX/product design experience with a portfolio of shipped work
• Proven experience designing data-dense enterprise or internal tooling such as tables, graphs, hierarchies, and admin surfaces
• Strong Figma skills including components, variants, and design-system contribution
• Track record of self-directed work with multiple concurrent deliverables and light supervision
• Ability to interview technical users and translate domain complexity into clear interfaces
• Excellent written communication in an async environment

Desired skills:

• Experience with requirements management, PLM, ALM, or traceability tools (DOORS, Jama, Polarion, or similar)
• Familiarity with hardware development or systems engineering processes (V-model, verification, change control boards)
• Background in developer tools or technical enterprise software
• Prototyping ability for validating complex interactions

Pay range: up to $85.27 per hour
