What we do

At Myant, we are creating the world’s first expressive and continuous digital presence platform, enabled by integrating technology directly into clothing and augmented by other devices, wearables, and IOT. We see the evolution of society where every member gets to participate from anywhere and anytime through a whole-body experience, mostly in a passive or ambient manner to foster ubiquitous accessibility. Humans have a fundamental desire and need to be connected to our environment, family, community, and technology. This level of connection will create a paradigm shift in the way we deal with each other, especially from afar, allowing for more meaningful relationships, and more in-depth representation of ourselves.

The need for this type of connection is not new. There are many companies working on ways to connect humans in singularity with technology, however most of these technologies are based on devices that are often used in episodical ways hence, leading to poor adoption or reliability. In general, innovation and technology have delivered significant benefits for many members of society. However, there are those who are left behind, namely the very young, the marginalized, the old and the sick. The challenge of inclusion for those left behind requires us to move beyond device focused strategies, towards an interface that we use naturally, every day. We believe that textile is that primary interface, used in clothing, coverings, carpeting and more, we wear and are surrounded by textiles universally, always.

Such an interface could fuse data with other devices that we use periodically and data with other IoTs in the environment. People could then leverage their physical presence over their digital presence to communicate and share personal wellbeing. This could unlock healthcare that is proactive and preventative, social connectedness that is more profound, enable care distribution models to be seamless and on demand, better fitness insights, safer working environments and more.

The vision for SKIIN -our first consumer-facing brand- is to enhance human ability through connected clothing and textiles. Skiin is in beta-phase market launch and has been recently granted Health Canada medical device license and submitted to FDA for regulatory approval in the US market. The sensors and actuators embedded within our apparel create your Digital Identity, which will be consumed by those who matter to you - your family members, physicians, trainers, other IoT devices - without you consciously having to think about it. The line between the digital and physical world is becoming increasingly blurry and we believe textile is the next medium to bridge that gap.

We are a multi-disciplinary technology team solving big challenges at the intersection of electronics, deep tech., software, design, advanced manufacturing, and data science.

About Us:

At Myant, our mission is to help people Live Younger, Longer by transforming healthcare from episodic, reactive care to proactive, preventive health management. Through our pioneering connected textiles and continuous monitoring technology, we bridge the gap between individuals, their families, and healthcare providers, creating a world where quality healthcare is more accessible, personalized, and preventative. Powered by extensive, multidisciplinary R&D, Myant combines expertise in textile science and computing, biometrics, AI, and clinical research to develop technologies that seamlessly integrate into everyday life.

With global ambitions, Myant is building a worldwide presence, collaborating with healthcare systems, clinics, researchers, and partners to set a new standard in connected health. Our goal is not just to improve care, but to fundamentally redefine the relationship people have with their health, shifting the focus from sick care to lifelong wellness.

By combining cutting-edge biometric sensing, AI-powered insights, and evidence-based behavioral coaching, Myant helps individuals and healthcare teams work together to prevent disease, optimize wellness, and unlock healthier, longer lives.

Role Overview:

At Myant, we’re transforming how patients connect with cardiometabolic care, seamlessly integrating textiles, sensors, and digital health tools into people’s everyday lives. As we expand our Cardiometabolic Business Unit in Canada, we are looking for a Director, UX UI to lead our UX/UI design team and own the vision, quality, and execution of design across our patient and clinician-facing platforms.

This is not a product management role, but someone with a strong understanding of product design coupled with a deep understanding of both consumer health apps and design systems is critical. This role combines hands-on design leadership with team management as well as responsibility for setting the bar for design excellence, mentoring a growing team of designers, and ensuring design is tightly integrated into product development from concept to delivery. You and your team will be the hands-on UX/UI experts who bridge the gap between insight and interface, mapping complex workflows, designing multi-layered experiences, and working side-by-side with product, software, data science as well as engineering teams to bring scalable, compliant, and beautiful digital experiences to life.

If you have strong Figma experience, a deep understanding of healthcare user needs, and love translating technical complexity into intuitive design, we want you on our team.

Key Responsibilities:

Own the end-to-end UX/UI design across our digital cardiometabolic solutions, including mobile, web, dashboards, and AI-enhanced tools.
Translate complex user needs into intuitive, actionable design systems using tools like Figma.
Collaborate with product and clinical leads to map decision trees, onboarding workflows, and health data flows for patients and providers.
Design consumer-grade patient experiences that simplify chronic care journeys while meeting clinical and compliance needs.
Integrate ChatGPT-based or generative AI features to support education, triage, or personalized insights.
Conduct user testing and usability research to validate assumptions and iterate based on real-world feedback.
Collaborate closely with Engineering to ensure design implementation fidelity and maintain a high-quality product experience.
Help define and scale a modular design system for consistent and accessible healthcare UI.
Represent the voice of the user in every design decision—patients, cardiologists, care teams, and family caregivers alike.
Build patient- and clinician-facing experiences that are elegant, evidence-based, and scalable.
Collaborate with clinical, engineering, product, and data science teams to map decision trees, design flows, and streamline navigation in complex healthcare journeys.
Partner with clinical stakeholders to ensure designs meet both usability and compliance standards (e.g., HIPAA, accessibility).
Work with product and data teams to integrate generative AI features (e.g., ChatGPT-based experiences) for patient coaching, triage, or reporting.
Advocate for UX/UI best practices and help cultivate a design-first mindset across the BU.

Qualifications:

8+ years of experience in UX/UI or product design, with at least 3 years in a lead or senior IC role.
Proven track record in designing consumer-facing or clinician-facing digital health products or medical devices.
Deep experience working with Figma—design systems, version control, component libraries, and collaborative workflows.
Able to map and explain complex systems (e.g., decision trees, workflow hierarchies, logic flows) clearly and efficiently.
Experience working on products that include data visualization, device integrations, or multi-tiered architecture.
Strong communication skills and collaborative mindset—able to work in matrixed environments across clinical, technical, and commercial teams.
Comfortable working in an early-stage, fast-moving environment, where structure is evolving and initiative is expected.
Bonus: Experience working with regulatory frameworks (e.g., Health Canada, HIPAA, accessibility standards) or data privacy design patterns.

Why Join Myant?:

Join a mission-driven company redefining proactive healthcare through textile computing and connected platforms.
Be part of a high-impact business unit focused on solving one of Canada’s most urgent health challenges—cardiometabolic disease.
Collaborate with leading clinicians, technologists, and innovators.
Shape patient journeys and care models with real-world, life-changing impact.

What We Offer:

A unique opportunity to shape the future of connected healthcare.
Competitive salary and comprehensive benefits.
A collaborative, fast-paced environment where innovation and impact go hand-in-hand.
Opportunities for professional growth in a mission-driven company poised for global expansion.
Exposure working in one of the most innovative and forward-thinking tech company
