UX Engineer

Build at Auger

• Clear ownership, not decision by consensus
• First principles over inherited patterns
• Shipping systems, not slide decks
• Fast feedback from reality, not opinions

• Serve as the connective tissue between design and engineering, translating design intent into working UI while grounding design decisions in technical reality.
• Build prototypes early and often, surfacing opportunities, mistakes, and overlooked details at the prototyping stage before they impact timelines and budgets.
• Advocate strongly for UX in cross-functional discussions, speaking to content strategy, creative direction, and engineering complexity, while championing the end user's perspective.
• Implement polished, accessible UIs with a solid command of programming fundamentals, fluent in both design ("pixels") and code ("pointers").
• Collaborate closely with designers, researchers, and product partners, and build internal tools that streamline the broader UX process.

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Human-Computer Interaction, Design, or another relevant field.
• 4+ years of experience working at the intersection of design and engineering.
• Proficiency with React, JavaScript, TypeScript, and CSS.
• Experience working with Azure or a comparable cloud platform.
• Strong command of accessibility standards and a track record of shipping polished, production-grade UI.
• Fluency in prototyping tools and workflows, with the judgment to know when a prototype is answering the right question.
• Comfort operating as the interpreter in a room of specialists: you translate between designers, engineers, and product without losing precision in either direction.
• A strong point of view on end-user experience, and the confidence to advocate for it even when it creates friction.
