About the position
CVector's North Star is to create and maintain a reliable energy system. To achieve that, we need to make our energy systems run near autonomously and become aware of their rapidly changing conditions, from local weather to power pricing. CVector aims to put a brain and a nervous system into every energy generating, storing, and consuming asset in the world. CVector is a remote-first company, with customers across the United States. As a Product UI/UX Designer, you will play a central role in shaping how users experience CVector’s platform—from power plant operators navigating complex controls to energy analysts monitoring critical data in real time. You will be responsible for translating deep customer insights into elegant, intuitive, and high-impact designs. This role goes beyond interface work: you’ll participate in customer discovery, define product requirements, and work directly with founders and engineers to bring ideas to life. You should be comfortable operating across the full design lifecycle and energized by the opportunity to influence product direction and company strategy.
