Our company forges new paths, embraces energy efficiency, and advances technology to deliver energy to the world. Our campus, on the north side of Houston, is nestled among 385 wooded acres and is designed for collaboration, wellness, and sustainability. Our office is LEED Gold certified with ample natural light and many amenities.

  • Onsite position

The Upstream division of ExxonMobil makes multi-million dollar decisions every day to locate and produce energy products that will power and enable communities around the world. Forming and communicating these decisions requires a team of the most talented scientists, engineers, and operators to collect and analyze large, highly-technical data . As if that's not hard enough, we find that these super-brains are frequently saddled with manual, inefficient tools and processes.

As part of our UX research team, you'll drive business strategy by conducting generative and evaluative research to build a baseline understanding of the users' current state and to identify opportunities - sometimes obvious, other times requiring strong insight capabilities. You will also work with project teams to define the value potential of an opportunity and develop potential solutions.

In return, you'll have opportunities to work with users across the globe to return crucial insights and gain a deep understanding of the unique, scientific challenges of the Oil & Gas industry. You’ll also be part of a highly-collaborative team of some of the most talented UX designers and researchers in the business making marked improvements on how our users/customers work.
