About Augment Code
The best software comes from Augmenting developers, not replacing them. We’re bringing joy back to software engineering and keeping developers in flow by building the best AI programming tools, with radical contextual awareness of your codebase that benefits teams.
About The Role
At Augment, we believe that to build world-class AI tools, we must have a deep understanding of the developers who use them. That’s where you come in. As a User Researcher, you’ll be at the heart of our product strategy, shaping how we craft solutions that empower developers and engineering teams across the globe. Your insights will directly influence key decisions, and you'll guide cross-functional teams in translating complex user needs into elegant, intuitive experiences. If you’re someone who thrives on complexity and can see the patterns in seemingly chaotic feedback, you’ll love this role.
Your mission is to dive deep into the mindset of engineers and enterprise teams, uncovering their challenges, motivations, and desires. You’ll turn those insights into action, helping us create tools that developers love to use—and that make them even more productive.
Examples Of What You Could Do
We encourage people from all kinds of backgrounds to apply, including and especially candidates from underrepresented and non-traditional backgrounds.
Augment Code is proud to be an Equal Employment Opportunity employer. We do not discriminate based upon race, religion, color, national origin, gender (including pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions), sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, age, status as a protected veteran, status as an individual with a disability, or other applicable legally protected characteristics.
