About The Position

Solve complex, high-stakes UX challenges at the intersection of industrial automation and human-centered design. Run Studios and our client partner, a global online retailer, are seeking a talented, passionate User Experience Designer to leverage world-class robotics and automation technologies to build a best-in-class visualization platform.

The ideal candidate knows how to translate ambiguous operational requirements into intuitive interfaces and can move fluidly from user research to high-fidelity prototyping. An unfailing passion for advocating on behalf of operators and engineers is an absolute must — this role will significantly impact how thousands of fulfilment center operators and controls engineers interact with some of the most sophisticated automation systems in the world.
