GE Aerospace
UX Design Co-op | Fall 2024GE Aerospace is a world-leading provider of jet and turboprop engines, as well as integrated systems for commercial, military, business, and general aviation aircraft.
While at GE, I worked in Digital Technology on the UX design team. I planned, led, and organized user research, to then develop an interface change for DTE (Digital Thread Engineer platform). I worked quickly to transition 4 applications on the same site to align with our design system, collaborating with product owners and developers to ensure heightened usability. I also developed leadership skills by joining the intern creative team, where I was responsible for leading and guiding current and new co-ops to prepare for their time at GE Aerospace.
This is the old homepage. DTE users rarely utilized it. Why?
It provides a limited number of working features
It’s confusing to navigate [help & documentation]
It lacks user control [flexibility & efficiency of use]
We want to change that so we can…
Help users navigate quickly through their workflows
Allow for a cohesive flow across the entire platform
Provide beneficial information to each user, no matter what their role may be
“To change a behavior ➔ Something new needs to exist that can’t be done anywhere else on the platform.”
