This role is remote-first, but you must be based in the U.S. and willing to work ET or PT hours.

We’re interviewing a variety of candidates—role level (senior or staff) and compensation will be based on many factors, including experience, skills, education, and job-related knowledge.

Note that portfolio submission is required for this position.

Role Overview

We're looking for a designer who's excited to wear many hats, and is motivated by solving hard problems for real people (in this case: farmers, food producers, and eaters everywhere).

Come help us build a design team that exists to illuminate the connections between climate, agriculture, nutrition, and human health. You’ll play a critical role in shaping a company where design strategy permeates everything we do, and helps the entire team ship work we’re all proud of.

The work is heavily UX- and UI-focused, with the expectation that you’ll be able to manage your own design workflow, bringing in our highly collaborative cross-functional teams to help when needed.

The right person is excited to learn in-depth food science, nutrition, and agriculture concepts from our team—it’ll be your job to translate complex topics into products that food producers use to understand their food quality, and consumers can benefit from. You’re passionate about food, health, climate and/or agriculture.

While we understand the value of specialization in UX roles, at this stage in our company we’re looking for an intentional generalist who will spend time on UI and systems design in Figma, but can flex into user research and product management. A stand-out candidate will be excited about contributing to overall product, marketing, content, and brand strategy.

Design at Edacious

We’re a software, data, and science services company. Our tools make measurement, comparison, and understanding of food quality more accessible through a nutrition and climate lens. Great design is not only a key differentiator: we view making complex topics digestible (pun intended) through design storytelling as critical to our success.

Why we exist: there's mounting scientific evidence that the healthiest foods come from the farming practices that are best for the planet. We believe that we can use nutrition as a lever to impact climate change at scale by accelerating the demand for healthier, climate-smart foods and activate regenerative agriculture as a climate solution. In the process, we’ll help people make better health decisions, and help food producers improve their operations—both having a positive impact on climate and food system resilience.

What you're designing: we make software that takes big data from our lab and other sources and presents it to food and agriculture professionals so that they can (1) improve quality and (2) tell the story of how good their food really is. You’ll have a hand in designing software, data visualizations, services, and brand content.

Our users: are food producers, farmers, and other people working in the supply chain to bring food to your table. In serving them, we also have to think about the needs of their end consumers.

Our team: you'd be working daily with a team of scientists, ag professionals, and seasoned software startup folks—a pretty unique group who are excited to teach and learn from each other every day.
