About Hologram

We are a team of insanely ambitious makers, engineers, operators, and general troublemakers. Our mission is to build the platform creating connected products, including hardware (the Hologram Dash and SIM cards), connecting to the Hologram cellular network, and web applications for managing devices and data.  We are venture backed and growing fast to support our expanding customer base.

We run a global operation and will hire talented people anywhere, but our headquarters are in Chicago, Illinois.

What is this role?

An experienced UX Designer with strong analytical abilities, backed by technical skills, that will bring the Hologram front-end experience to the next level.

What you’ll do

You will work closely with our engineering and growth teams to iterate and evolve our front-end experience to be the go-to platform in IoT. Under this role you will conduct user research, interviews and surveys, and synthesize information to create sitemaps, wireframes and prototypes as well as validate results through user and data-driven testing.


You will have the opportunity to establish a thorough and flexible research function to help us to learn more from our users and share the knowledge and insights with the rest of the company. You’ll work on everything from user research and usability studies to generative research that'll help other designers and teams solve product problems.

Who we’re looking for
  • Extensive experience in using UX design best practices to design solutions to challenging problems and a deep understanding of mobile-friendly and responsive design
  • A solid grasp of user-centered design and testing methodologies, subsystems, and usability and accessibility concerns
  • Ability to work with product managers to research and synthesize product vision into detailed requirements and complete user experiences for engineering execution
  • Ability to clearly and effectively communicate design processes, ideas, and solutions to teams and clients
  • Expertise in UX prototyping tools such as InVision, UXPin, Balsamiq, Framer.js, Quartz Composer, and the like is a must. Basic front-end development skills are a plus
  • Passion for all things UX and other areas of design and innovation. Research and showcase knowledge in the industry’s latest trends and technologies
  • Preference will be given to candidates who have experience designing complex solutions for developer tool environments
Why should you join us?

At Hologram, we believe in you and your immediate squad members to know what's best for our platform and we enable you to make immediate, customer-impacting decisions. You can see this in how we develop products and processes: Hologram pushes decision-making out to the edges of the organization to reduce management overhead and increase speed to market.


We also have a flexible work from home policy (i.e. you make your own). This means you can decide to work from home whenever you want and only coordinate face-to-face with your teammates when you need to. Some team members work from home full time.

We encourage a solid work-life balance with good benefits and an open PTO policy.

Hologram promotes tight knit teams by officially supporting events that allow you to get to know your teammates in a relaxed environment. We periodically host events to take a pause from work, hang out, learn more about the other aspects of the business, and most importantly learn about each other.
