UX Researcher

Who we are

Our 55+ global team is on a mission to revolutionise the way we bring ideas to life and fundamentally change the way 3D design is done today. We help creators to communicate 3D ideas in the quickest and most intuitive way possible. We've developed the first end-to-end 3D design platform that allows people to work from the early concept phases of the design & creation process all the way through to hand-off for productionisation.

The tools we are developing are changing the way companies across automotive, industrial design, and entertainment industries carry out their day-to-day work. With teams at companies as diverse as Ford Motor Company and Adidas depending on our platform to collaborate and deliver world-class physical and digital products, it’s no surprise that this extends into talent acquisition for these industry leaders (Adidas/Yeezy).

We’ve just closed a very successful Series-A fundraise with support from the VCs that backed companies like Slack & Stripe, and have plans to grow to around 120+ people in 12 months.

Who we’re looking for

Someone who is curious, with a passion for learning about people through research and who wants to dive into the details of how they think and behave, coming out with the evidence to showcase your thinking & ideas. You are positive, have the confidence to ask a lot of questions and are a strong believer in ‘Show, don’t tell’.

As our UX Researcher, you'll play a strategic role as part of the product teams.

• Delivering scalable processes and systems for feedback collection, synthesis and insight dissemination.
