Established over 20 years ago, with over 120 headcount, we are a growing Melbourne headquartered Software Engineering Consultancy with a core focus of delivering business-critical digital products to our clients. Our teams work alongside our customers to dissect their complex problems and convert them into value-driven solutions, combining innovative principles in development, design, analysis and quality automation. We utilise Design Thinking and Agile practices to rapidly create customer and business first software, testing and embracing new technologies and trends along the way.

At Fabric, our Experience Designers play a key role in designing thoughtful, user-centred solutions for complex systems and services. As an Experience Designer, you will contribute to discovery and delivery activities across projects, working closely with more senior designers, business analysts, product owners, and engineers to translate research insights into effective solutions.

This is a hands-on role for a designer who brings curiosity, empathy, and initiative. Someone who learns proactively, is growing in their design capability, and is ready to grow into a confident, independent contributor across both discovery and delivery projects.

Success in this role looks like:

• Delivering design work that creates meaningful user and business outcomes.

• Driving day-to-day design activities on delivery projects with autonomy and attention to detail.

• Supporting and learning from senior designers on complex or ambiguous discovery and delivery projects.

• Collaborating effectively with cross-functional teams in agile environments.

• Seeking, applying, and responding constructively to feedback to continually improve your craft.
