Do you love turning numbers into clean visuals that actually help people do their jobs better? If "creative," "curious," and "analytical" all describe you...this might be your perfect fit.
We're looking for a Senior Data Visualization Designer who blends storytelling, problem-solving, and user-centric design to help transform how our manufacturing teams interact with data. This is a front-end, hands-on, human-interface-meets-industrial-operations role for someone who wants to make data useful, beautiful, and actionable.
You'll interact with leadership, engineers, operators, analytics teams, and IT. You'll travel to multiple facilities, learn directly from the people using the products you design, and build visual solutions that make their work easier, safer, and more efficient.
Applicants are encouraged to upload a portfolio or provide a link to your portfolio with your application.
What You'll Do...
You'll lead the charge in shaping how data is visualized across our manufacturing operations-creating dashboards, standards, and experiences that support operators, technicians, engineers, and leaders.
On a typical day, you might:
Work side-by-side with process engineers, operators, and manufacturing leaders to understand real challenges on the floor.
Transform raw manufacturing data into real-time dashboards.
Build intuitive human-machine interface (HMI) concepts that clearly communicate what operators need to know, when they need to know it.
Establish Dart's visualization style guide, setting the standard for tools, frameworks, visual language, and interaction patterns.
Evaluate visualization platforms and recommend what the entire organization should standardize on.
Lead strategic initiatives to maximize the value of our data and drive insights across the business.
Translate complex, multi-dimensional data into compelling, simple visuals that help people take action confidently.
Build data products that are practical, scalable, and deeply connected to front-line user needs.
Up to 40% travel, primarily domestic, with international travel possible
What You'll Need...

Demonstrated progressive experience in a relevant field dealing with large data sets, UI, UX, or complex data visualization design with impactful data storytelling results
Excellent visual communicator, experience translating ideas into compelling visuals through thoughtful design
