• Contribute to exploratory and evaluative research focused on AI-assisted engineering workflows and next-generation interaction models
• Analyze qualitative and quantitative data to uncover actionable insights
• Create journey maps and other visual artifacts to communicate user workflows, goals, pain points, and opportunities
• Contribute to improving research operations, documentation processes, and participant management systems

• Currently enrolled in or recently completed a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Human Factors, UX Research, Product Design, HCI, or a related field
• Familiarity with user-centered design and UX research methods, such as interviews, usability testing, surveys, task analysis, user journey mapping, and heuristic evaluations
• Strong communication skills—able to clearly share research plans and insights in both verbal and written formats
• Detail-oriented and organized, with an interest in both research and operations
• Experience with UX tools (Figma, Miro/Mural/Figjam, Excel/Sheets) is a plus
• Exposure to or interest in CAD, 3D modeling, or SOLIDWORKS is a bonus, but not required
