Job Description
About Applied Intuition
We are an in-office company, and our expectation is that employees primarily work from their Applied Intuition office 5 days a week. However, we also recognize the importance of flexibility and trust our employees to manage their schedules responsibly. This may include occasional remote work, starting the day with morning meetings from home before heading to the office, or leaving earlier when needed to accommodate family commitments.
About the role
We are hiring our first UX Researcher to join our product design team focused on Vehicle OS and in‑vehicle experiences. This is an early‑career role for someone with a strong academic foundation in Human‑Computer Interaction who wants to own the full UX research lifecycle in a fast‑paced, highly technical environment. You will partner closely with interaction designers, product managers, and engineers to define problems, run user studies, and make our complex automotive workflows intuitive and safe.
In this role, you will spend time in the field with our customers, run evaluative user tests on our UI, and synthesize insights that directly shape our roadmap. You will be a key voice of the customer inside the Vehicle OS organization and help us navigate standards, safety, and usability constraints for production automotive software.
At Applied Intuition, you will:
- Work with product and design partners to clarify problem statements, define research questions, and scope research plans for Vehicle OS and in‑vehicle features.
- Design and execute user studies end‑to‑end, including participant selection, protocol design, moderation, note‑taking, and synthesis.
- Run usability tests on interaction designs and UI flows (both in‑lab and in‑field) to validate concepts quickly and inform iteration.
- Conduct contextual and field research with automotive customers and end users, including observing workflows and capturing qualitative insights.
- Translate research findings into clear narratives, artifacts, and recommendations that influence product decisions and design direction.
- Collaborate with designers who are focused on interaction design to ensure research questions are tightly connected to design hypotheses.
