Rex is creating new tech leadership to serve people. Big tech leadership has lost its social license to lead. They’re focused on extracting value, rather than creating it; muzzling dissent rather than freeing our voices; oppressing rebels rather than being the rebel. We are changing this. At Rex, technology will once again serve people. Review our culture page (https://www.rex.com/careers#company-culture) to understand what we are building. 

At the intersection of real estate and technology, Rex is a startup incubator continuing to launch companies within our ecosystem which are focused on PropertyTech, FinTech, and InsuranceTech. Our initiatives page (https://www.rex.com/initiatives) provides more details on current companies. 

We are hiring multiple User Experience Designers to help build each of our stealth companies, which currently range from initial concept to MVP:

  • PropData, a data intelligence platform for real estate, investing, reporting, and due diligence
  • PayUp, a FinTech tool that will enable fast, hassle-free capital for service providers, so they can focus on growing their business 
  • PrimePro, a platform that will empower gig workers as they find jobs and manage their careers 
  • InsurePro, AI-driven insurance that provides by the minute coverage for workers, giving them access to higher paying jobs while lowering their operational costs

This role provides the opportunity to be involved in all aspects of a startup including business development, product management, marketing and design.

What you’ll do:

  • Full stack design work ranging from user research, prioritization, high fidelity mockups, and fast iterations
  • Key contributor across multiple cross-functional teams including product, engineering, and operations
  • Collaborate with leadership to drive strategy and develop product roadmaps
  • Provide strategic thinking around user-research and UX & UI
  • Establish key design language to build out the product
  • Create delightful online and offline experiences that are suitable for our target customers

What you offer:

  • 3-7 years of UX and UI experience in a high-demand, fast-paced, ideally startup, environment 
  • Obsessed with all aspects of human-centered design in personal and professional life
  • Comfortable with ambiguity and rapid changes common in early-stage companies
  • Excels at user research, design architecture, and prioritizing product roadmap 
  • Strong UI/UX skill with a passion for details and removing friction for users
  • Bold and confident in your design prowess while also maintaining a humble mindset
  • Eager to partake in a collaborative environment to implement new ideas
  • Engaged in the design community, maintaining high visibility, and staying on the pulse of design trends, principles, and techniques

Before you apply, review these resources to better understand our culture and mission:

  • Rex ecosystem initiatives
  • Peter Rex writing in WSJ about moving Rex from Seattle to Austin
  • Peter Rex on Fox Business
  • Peter Rex on Bloomberg Radio

What we offer:

  • Competitive salary and early-in equity awards
  • Competitive and comprehensive medical, dental, and vision plans
  • Peace of mind through company-paid short-term disability, long-term disability and life insurance
  • 401(K) with employer match
  • Unlimited (discretionary) PTO in addition to Holidays and your birthday off
  • Monthly gym membership stipend
  • Health Savings Account with employer contribution
  • Dependent Flexible Spending Account
  • Mental health telecounseling options
  • We are committed to serving others with a focus on faith, family, and freedom
  • Ability to work in person in Austin, Texas (or willing to relocate)

From the top-down, we are committed to investing in the development of all team members in both a professional and personal setting. We host monthly company socials where employees and family members get together to build our community. Regular performance evaluations are intended to provide a feedback loop, providing opportunities for consistent growth on both ends.
