Our mission
Simplify and enhance everyday interactions between patients and care providers.
Care should begin from the moment an individual reaches out for information, or to schedule an appointment, long before they arrive at the clinic. Great service can turn one patient from feeling like a number to feeling truly cared for. We exist to help health systems improve the patient experience.
Requirements
Syllable is a user-centric, product-focused company delivering end-to-end healthcare solutions that meaningfully improve patient journeys. As a Conversation Designer, you’ll leverage your knowledge of human communication to lead, define, and drive seamless and natural interactions for existing and upcoming Patient Assistant experiences across various device surfaces. You’ll work on multiple projects simultaneously, feel comfortable working with multiple stakeholders, and be able to think strategically when reviewing design work and providing feedback. You’ll join a talented, multidisciplinary UX team and partner with them to deliver user experiences that will set the standard in the healthcare industry.
- Produce user and logic flows, wireframes, prototypes, and detailed, comprehensive voice and multimodal design specifications
- Confidently defend design rationale used to create solutions in frequent design reviews
- Draw on depth of experience, but initiate research and testing efforts as needed by working closely with UX researchers
- Evaluate usability and audio consistency, and conduct analyses of real usage data to inform Voice UX efforts
- Drive root cause analyses to respond to Voice UX performance issues
- Distill feedback from multiple stakeholders and teams to iterate on design
- Start simple while not losing sight of the long-term vision
- Thrive in a nimble, start-up environment
Qualifications
You must meet these minimum qualifications to be considered:
- 2+ years experience in human-computer interaction design in voice or multimodal speech interfaces.
- Bachelor’s degree in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), Linguistics, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience
- Demonstrated experience designing voice and/or multi-modal applications
- Portfolio highlighting conversational flows and designs
Having as many of these specific qualifications is a plus, but transferable skills/experiences may be equally valuable:
- 4 – 6 years of relevant industry experience as a multimodal designer
- Experience with trust, safety, privacy, and security best practices
- Experience with localization and accessibility best practices
- Background in script writing, creative writing, or game design is a plus
- Ability to prototype voice user experiences with readily available tools
- Ability to write tools to determine patterns in usage data
- Familiarity with user experience research principles and practices
- Ability to collaborate and influence (with or without formal authority) engineering, design, and product management teams
- Unwavering attention to detail with an acute awareness that everything counts
Benefits

We offer our employees competitive salary and equity and the following benefits:
- 401(k) plan with employer match
