Chicago is a trading, insurance, logistics and consulting town with a steady B2B software scene, and it tends to pay well relative to its cost of living. Design openings cover product and UX design, research, brand and design systems; a portfolio that walks through a messy problem to a measurable outcome beats a gallery of polished screens.
This page tracks open roles for product designers and UX researchers in the Chicago area, pulled straight from employers' own applicant tracking systems rather than reposted from other job boards. Use the filters to narrow by salary, experience level, remote options and visa sponsorship, or let Aplyr's Autopilot apply to matching roles for you.

What’s included. This page shows roles classified as Design, located in the Chicago area (Chicago), newest first. Postings come directly from employers’ own career sites, not from other job boards.
How it stays fresh. Aplyr re-checks sources throughout the day and drops a posting as soon as the employer closes it. The page itself is rebuilt daily and the “updated” time at the top refreshes live. Snapshot as of Nov 1, 2026.
Quality filters. The table only shows postings from the last 90 days, newest first, and rows with neither a salary nor a location are moved to the bottom. 13 postings in the latest batch were hidden because the title didn’t match this list’s role family.
