Job Description

Amper is a rapidly growing IoT startup that helps manufacturers unleash their potential with modern software to run operations.

We build a simple but powerful platform that helps manufacturers reduce costs, increase visibility, and drive efficiency. We believe in keeping things simple and easy to understand—our culture and products reflect that. For example, it takes just minutes to self-install Amper on any kind of industrial machine—like a consumer device, without the traditional hassle of integration.

Our vision is to build the market-leading FactoryOS to enable cutting-edge operations, and we are investing in the next level of growth across our GTM and product teams. We are a venture-backed startup with a distributed team and HQ in Chicago.

The role ...

We’re expanding our product team and looking for a UI/UX Designer to play a key role in shaping the user experience of our platform. You’ll work closely with product managers and engineers to design intuitive, user-friendly solutions that help manufacturers streamline their operations.

You’ll be responsible for research, wireframing, prototyping, and final visual designs—helping to ensure a seamless and engaging experience for our users. You’ll say “no” to complexity and advocate for simplicity.

This is a remote-friendly role with the option to work from our Chicago or San Francisco offices. We support flexible work while valuing the collaboration and speed that come from working together in person.

You’ll enjoy working at Amper if you:

  • Have a strong appetite for the unfamiliar; that includes solving complex UX challenges in industrial and SaaS environments.

  • Believe that being helpful and humble are just as important as technical know-how.

  • Can teach the things you know well and acknowledge what you can learn from others.

  • Are excited about designing tools that drive real-world impact in manufacturing.

What you'll do...

  • Own the end-to-end UI/UX design process, from research and wireframing to high-fidelity designs and prototyping.

  • Collaborate with product managers and engineers to define and refine product experiences.

  • Conduct user research, usability testing, and stakeholder interviews to inform design decisions.

  • Translate complex workflows into intuitive, user-friendly interfaces.

  • Ensure consistency in UI components and interactions across the platform.

  • Advocate for the user while balancing business goals and technical constraints.

  • Stay up-to-date on industry trends and best practices to drive innovation.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of UI/UX design experience, in SaaS or B2B products.

  • Strong portfolio showcasing experience in interaction design, user research, and visual design.

  • Proficiency in Figma, Sketch, or similar design tools.

  • Ability to create wireframes, user flows, and high-fidelity mockups.

  • Strong understanding of usability principles, accessibility, and responsive design.

  • Outstanding communication skills, with the ability to present and justify design decisions.

  • Experience collaborating closely with engineers and product teams to implement designs.

  • Strong problem-solving ability; able to simplify complex workflows into elegant solutions.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience designing for industrial, IoT, or data-heavy applications.

  • Familiarity with Locations and Affordances design concepts.

  • Basic understanding of front-end development principles (HTML, CSS, JavaScript) to bridge design and engineering.

Why Join Amper?

  • Be part of a mission-driven company transforming the manufacturing industry.

  • Collaborate with a dynamic, innovative team that values creativity and impact.

  • Enjoy competitive compensation, benefits, and opportunities for growth.

Compensation & Benefits:

The range of annual base salary for full-time employees for this position is $120,000-150,000 per year. Please note that base pay offered may vary depending on factors including your city of residence, job-related knowledge, skills, and experience.
