Get Access To All JobsSr AI UX and UI Developer
As a Sr UX and UI Developer here at Honeywell, you will play a crucial role in designing and implementing advanced data solutions for AI solutions that drive business insights, enhance decision-making processes and empower AI solutions. Your expertise will help in critical AI development activities across all AI modalities (classic, Gen and agentic) and data types (structured and unstructured).
You will report directly to our AI Director and you’ll work out of our Phoenix, AZ or Charlotte, NC location on a hybrid work schedule.
Key Responsibilities
- Design and develop intuitive, performant, and scalable user interfaces for AI-powered applications, spanning classic ML insights, GenAI experiences, and emerging agentic AI interfaces.
- Build modern front-end applications using React, integrating with backend AI services, RAG pipelines, agent orchestration engines, and data APIs.
- Design and implement agentic interaction patterns, including multi-step agent workflows, tool invocation visualizations, conversational UI, human-in-the-loop controls, and AI traceability interfaces.
- Develop rich data visualizations and dashboards using Tableau to present model outputs, system telemetry, quality metrics, and user-facing insights.
- Translate complex AI concepts—model predictions, confidence scores, agent reasoning chains, retrieval context—into clean, understandable, and human-centered UI components.
- Collaborate closely with AI architects, data scientists, ML engineers, and software developers to ensure front-end interfaces are aligned with backend AI capabilities.
- Conduct user research, usability testing, and iterative design cycles to refine interface behavior, accessibility, and task success rates.
- Create reusable design components, UI style guides, and UX standards for AI-driven applications across multiple business domains.
- Ensure high standards of code quality, performance, security, accessibility, and responsiveness across devices.

Get Access To All JobsSenior Physical Design Engineer CPT: Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Senior Physical Design Engineer role qualify for CPT?
Yes, provided the work integrates directly with your graduate program in electrical engineering, computer engineering, or a related field covering VLSI or semiconductor design. Your DSO makes the final determination. Roles involving place-and-route, timing closure, or physical verification in a commercial EDA environment consistently satisfy the curricular nexus requirement at most programs.
Can I start a CPT role at a semiconductor company before my I-20 is updated?
No. Your DSO must issue an updated I-20 listing the specific employer, role, start date, and work location before your first day of work. Working even one day without that authorization violates your F-1 status. Give your DSO at least two to three weeks of lead time, and confirm your employer's official legal name matches exactly what appears on your offer letter.
Will full-time CPT affect my OPT eligibility?
Full-time CPT totaling 12 months or more eliminates your OPT eligibility entirely, so this is a critical planning decision. Part-time CPT, defined as 20 hours or fewer per week, does not count toward that cap. Many F-1 students in senior physical design roles negotiate part-time CPT during their final semester to protect their post-graduation OPT year.
How do I find employers hiring Senior Physical Design Engineers who support CPT?
Browse Migrate Mate to identify semiconductor and EDA companies with documented F-1 work-authorization hiring histories for physical design roles. Employers who have previously filed LCAs for physical design titles are the strongest candidates for CPT support, since they already understand the DOL wage and authorization requirements involved.
Does CPT experience as a Senior Physical Design Engineer help with future H-1B sponsorship?
CPT work counts as U.S. professional experience, which strengthens your H-1B petition by demonstrating hands-on specialty occupation employment. Employers who hired you on CPT have already assessed your fit for the role. Keep documentation of your projects, tools used, and the academic connection to your degree, as these details support the specialty occupation argument in an I-129 filing.
