Vetted User Research Professionals

“Unity developer with hands-on experience adapting an AR game from PC/mobile to legacy Vuzix smart glasses, focusing on UI/UX redesign and rigorous usability testing (recordings, interaction metrics, Likert surveys) to preserve game feel on constrained hardware. Brings a cross-functional, inventive mindset—e.g., proposing an art-department-driven approach to generate training data for a computer vision defect-detection effort.”

“UX/Product designer with agtech internship experience designing an end-to-end platform, including user journeys, interaction models, and a clean visual design system. Has hands-on field research experience on farms that directly shaped mobile-friendly UI decisions (one-handed, on-the-move workflows) and a front-end development background (React/HTML/CSS/JS) that supports smooth engineering handoff.”

“Early-career product designer with strong end-to-end ownership on a thesis product, Klaro—a smartwatch-led gym guidance experience for beginners focused on reducing hesitation and anxiety in the moment. Stands out for combining UX craft with scrappy product validation, including a 14% waitlist conversion test and a navigation experiment that helped users reach equipment about 40% faster.”
