We're a lean and fast-moving Techstars startup (Chicago '17) founded by a team of night-hackers and experts in Artificial Intelligence, with a vision to empower everyone to maximize their productivity using Virtual Reality. Our goal is to immerse distributed teams into a VR workplace so that they can have access to their office and team from anywhere. This is by no means an easy problem to solve, but with the world's best team, we're excited to revolutionize the future of work!

At Immersed, the product is at our core and drives our business. Design and Engineering own product, and work together synergistically to deliver complex software elegantly.

We’re always looking for self-motivated product and visual designers who understand great design is more than how a product looks or feels.

We believe great design helps people solve their problems, accomplish their goals, and brings delight to their everyday lives. We also believe a well-executed design strategy touches every part of the company, from our employee handbook to our in-VR application interactions.

The Senior UX Designer/Researcher will use usability tools and research methods to design and conduct qualitative and quantitative studies in order to understand users and improve product usability and usefulness. The candidate will work closely with other designers, product managers, and engineers to identify and prioritize research opportunities and approaches. Responsibilities include designing and conducting studies, analyzing and reporting results, providing recommendations, and creating.

• is hungry to produce excellent work, and has a love for the craft of design
• believes that 'good' is the enemy of 'great'
