Ux/Ui Researcher Jobs

UX Researcher & Writer

At Interac, we design products and solutions that give Canadians control over their money so they can get more out of life. But, that’s not all. Whether we’re leading real-time money movement, driving innovative commerce solutions like open payments for transit systems, or making advancements in new areas like digital identity and open banking, we are playing a key role in shaping the future of the digital economy in Canada.

Want to make a lasting impact amongst a community of creative thinkers, problem solvers, technical gurus and high-performance application developers? We want to hear from you.

This is a unique role that compromises two critical aspects of product design: UX Research and UX Writing. This combination offers many advantages that contributes to a more holistic and user-centered approach to product development.
