Job Summary

At Reach Labs, we are delivering technologies to enable the long-range, wireless transfer of power in Industrial settings.

Reach Labs' product research drives both engineering and business decisions. In an effort to get the highest quality data and inspire confidence in findings, we are looking for a mixed media UI/UX prototyping and visual design specialist.

Finally, you will help to consolidate learnings from these materials and implement them into core product designs, assisting with definition of visual identity and language in the process.

Reach Labs - Who We Are

Reach Labs is a pioneer in a new frontier of technology. Born out of MIT, incubated in YC, and developed in an "office space" that was the oven of a cookie factory, we are a group of curious, passionate, and creative problem solvers, and we approach our work with vigor and humility. We have recently moved to a beautiful and freshly renovated office, but are taking the startup mentality with us- decisions are made quickly, meetings and politics are kept to a minimum, and everyone here does high visibility work that has considerable influence on our product and company.

Our new office has close access to MacArthur BART, Public and Private Bus Routes, walking access to Emeryville restaurants, gyms and groceries, and ample bike parking and personal storage for employees. We have weekly team lunches, quarterly offsite company events, and often spend time together outside of work bicycling, rock climbing, going to concerts, and hosting happy hours.

As a result, we highly value diversity at our company in not only professional capabilities and experience, but also in personal interests, musical tastes, and walks of life. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status.
