Product Designers work alongside a company’s industrial team to design and add improvements to basic consumer products, like chairs, beds or tables. Some Product Designers may also create more complex products like electronic or medical tools and equipment. To come up with ideas for potential products to design, they’ll conduct market research to identify the preferences of their target customer base and will create rough sketches according to the research details. Product Designers will also build and outline specifications for products for stakeholders and design team members to review. They’ll collaborate closely with the design team to come up with unique product designs and will provide feedback on ways to make the product more convenient and visually appealing to customers.
