Job Description

Digital Control Incorporated (DCI) is the world’s leading supplier of underground locating and steering products for the horizontal directional drilling (HDD) industry. Since the introduction of this revolutionary technology 30 years ago, Digital Control has been at the forefront of trenchless technologies that enable the efficient installation of underground utilities such as fiber optic, telecom, gas, and water lines world-wide. DCI’s products are valued for their durable design, ease of use and uncompromising commitment to customer service.

We’re looking for a versatile and driven UX Designer to help shape and scale our products across multiple platforms. As a UX Designer at DCI, you’ll be a key contributor supporting multiple product teams. This is a fast-paced, execution-heavy role suited to a designer who thrives on delivering a high volume of quality work. You’ll work closely with product managers, developers, customer support, and other stakeholders to create intuitive, consistent, and user-centered experiences.

What you'll do :

  • Collaborate with product managers, engineers, and other stakeholders to understand user needs and project requirements
  • Translate conceptual ideas into compelling design concepts, wireframes, mockups, and prototypes
  • Produce wireframes, high-fidelity mockups, and prototypes across multiple products and platforms, per product requirements, for consumption by development teams
  • Apply and extend our established design system to maintain visual and functional consistency
  • Solve complex user experience challenges across a multi-platform ecosystem
  • Juggle multiple projects simultaneously, maintaining high standards and attention to detail
  • Serve as a usability expert and voice of the user across the organization
  • Conduct user research, usability testing, and gather feedback to iterate and improve the user experience
  • Work closely with developers to ensure seamless implementation of designs, including providing assets and specifications
  • Stay updated on industry trends, emerging technologies, and design tools to continually enhance your skills and knowledge

Requirements

  • 4-6 years of UX design experience in a product-focused environment
  • A proven ability to efficiently manage multiple high-impact projects simultaneously, including making strategic trade-offs between UX ideals and practical development constraints
  • Experience designing interfaces for construction, fleet management, or industrial systems, specifically highlighting usability for both end-users and operational management
  • Experience designing for at least two of the following : embedded systems, mobile applications, and web platforms
  • Solid portfolio showcasing thoughtful UX work on complex products or product ecosystems
  • Proficiency with Figma (or equivalent tools). Able to work to an established design system
  • Strong collaboration and communication skills—able to give and receive feedback constructively
  • Comfortable working in an agile, fast-paced team with shifting priorities
  • Knowledgeable about accessibility standards and inclusive design principles
  • Innate professional curiosity. Able and eager to adapt and learn new technologies
  • Nice to Have :

  • Experience designing for a complex product ecosystem with multiple connected workflows and dependencies
  • Strongly prefer experience in designing for IoT and edge-device environments, demonstrating the capability to handle real-world connectivity challenges and complex workflows spanning onsite interactions and remote / cloud-based interfaces
  • Experience with design validation, usability testing, and user research
  • Previous experience in a startup or small team environment
  • Who you are :

  • You are a dedicated problem solver who collaborates with your teammates to create thoughtfully-designed experiences for your users.
  • You're not afraid to ask questions - and you're not afraid to answer them either.
  • You know that as a UX designer it's your job to serve as the voice of the user.
  • Your work is thoughtful and thorough, and you're passionate about design.
  • You keep up to date on design trends and new technologies.
  • If you’re excited about this role but your experience doesn’t align perfectly with every requirement, we encourage you to still apply. You may be just the right candidate for this or another role at DCI.

    Benefits

  • Unparalleled health benefits (PPO plan with no deductibles, no co-pays, DCI covers 99% of costs)
  • Quarterly bonuses : we all share in the success of the company
  • Professional development
  • 401k match (3% match from DCI regardless of participation, 5% maximum match, 100% vested immediately)
  • 22 days PTO

  • Compensation :

  • DCI is proud to offer comprehensive compensation packages including competitive base pay and discretionary quarterly profit sharing bonuses to all part-time and full-time team members. Base pay is reviewed at a minimum on an annual basis.
  • Pay range : $108,400 - $120,200 per year. To ensure equity, our compensation philosophy is to bring people into new roles in the range of the mid-point of that role. Factors considered for pay include the level of skill, experience, training, external market factors, and internal value.
  • Profit sharing bonus : Over the last 3 years, quarterly bonuses ranged between 11% and 17%. Future bonuses could be higher or lower depending on company profits.
  • Why DCI?

    Work hard, play often... DCI employees are innovative and creative. Our open (forest-like) work environment creates free flowing conversations across all functions. We have gaming days; Lego challenges and ping pong matches to build on our creativity when one hits a roadblock. If that is not enough, our employees bring their four-legged companions (dogs) to work and can take them for a walk around the Green River trail.

    DCI takes pride in caring a lot about our employees. We believe that employees should not be burdened with benefits expenses, so we provide lucrative health care plans unmatched in most other companies. We also like to eat at DCI and find any excuse to celebrate the most random holidays (Pi Day, Chocolate Ice Cream Day, etc.) We have monthly catered lunches, a fully stocked snack area, sporting tickets, wellness competitions, and most importantly a team of people who will tell you that DCI is the best place they've ever worked. This is evident by our long service team and low turnover.

DCI does not discriminate against any employee or applicant because of race, creed, color, religion, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity / expression, national origin, disability, age, genetic information, veteran status, marital status, pregnancy or related condition (including breastfeeding), or any other basis protected by law.
