Tasks for “User Experience Team Lead”
- Provide technical support to clients through activities such as rearranging workplace fixtures to reduce physical hazards or discomfort or modifying task sequences to reduce cycle time.
- Prepare reports or presentations summarizing results or conclusions of human factors engineering or ergonomics activities, such as testing, investigation, or validation.
- Perform statistical analyses, such as social network pattern analysis, network modeling, discrete event simulation, agent-based modeling, statistical natural language processing, computational sociology, mathematical optimization, or systems dynamics.
- Develop or implement research methodologies or statistical analysis plans to test and evaluate developmental prototypes used in new products or processes, such as cockpit designs, user workstations, or computerized human models.
- Operate testing equipment, such as heat stress meters, octave band analyzers, motion analysis equipment, inclinometers, light meters, velometers, sling psychrometers, or colormetric detection tubes.
- Review health, safety, accident, or worker compensation records to evaluate safety program effectiveness or to identify jobs with high incidents of injury.
- Conduct interviews or surveys of users or customers to collect information on topics such as requirements, needs, fatigue, ergonomics, or interfaces.
- Write, review, or comment on documents, such as proposals, test plans, or procedures.
- Recommend workplace changes to improve health and safety, using knowledge of potentially harmful factors, such as heavy loads or repetitive motions.
- Design cognitive aids, such as procedural storyboards or decision support systems.
- Estimate time or resource requirements for ergonomic or human factors research or development projects.
- Investigate theoretical or conceptual issues, such as the human design considerations of lunar landers or habitats.
- Advocate for end users in collaboration with other professionals including engineers, designers, managers, or customers.
- Develop or implement human performance research, investigation, or analysis protocols.
- Perform functional, task, or anthropometric analysis, using tools such as checklists, surveys, videotaping or force measurement.
- Train users in task techniques or ergonomic principles.
- Analyze complex systems to determine potential for further development, production, interoperability, compatibility, or usefulness in a particular area, such as aviation.
- Apply modeling or quantitative analysis to forecast events, such as human decisions or behaviors, the structure or processes of organizations, or the attitudes or actions of human groups.
- Assess the user-interface or usability characteristics of products.
- Integrate human factors requirements into operational hardware.
- Establish system operating or training requirements to ensure optimized human-machine interfaces.
- Provide human factors technical expertise on topics such as advanced user-interface technology development or the role of human users in automated or autonomous sub-systems in advanced vehicle systems.
- Inspect work sites to identify physical hazards.
- Collect data through direct observation of work activities or witnessing the conduct of tests.
- Design or evaluate human work systems, using human factors engineering and ergonomic principles to optimize usability, cost, quality, safety, or performance.
- Conduct research to evaluate potential solutions related to changes in equipment design, procedures, manpower, personnel, or training.
