We’re looking for a talented and curious UX Researcher and Designer who is passionate about making complex systems intuitive, efficient, and user-centric.

In this hybrid role, you’ll be responsible for understanding our users—engineers, operators, and technicians—and designing experiences that optimize usability, safety, and efficiency. You’ll conduct research, translate findings into design solutions, and collaborate closely with product owners, engineers, and stakeholders.

In turn, we work hard to take care of our own with excellent benefits and pay, personal development, and transparent communication. We also know that you can be great at what you do and still have fun. If that sounds like a good fit, help us bring the next generation of automation solutions to nearly every industry, including manufacturing, food and beverage, renewable energy, water and wastewater, data centers, and more.
