Full-time /
Remote
TXI is looking for Agile PMs, Designers, and Engineers eager to find purpose in their work by crafting meaningful digital products through continual experimentation, exploration, and pushing the boundaries of conventional norms.
Building the right thing is often harder than building it right. More than 80% of digital innovations fail because they are not solving the real user need. We take a pragmatic approach to innovation by deploying integrated teams to uncover insights from users and turn them into compelling digital solutions. As a boutique strategy and product innovation firm, our capabilities include product discovery, delivery, and adoption.
As a TXI consultant, you have an opportunity to shape and define the products that you build. You can influence how engagements run and collaborate with integrated teams to deliver products that matter. More importantly, you can use your passion for learning and continuous improvement to help our clients bring new concepts and products to market.
Our business landscape evolves rapidly. While there might not be an open role on our site today, it doesn't mean there won't be one tomorrow. We understand that you might not return to our site later, so we're taking the initiative to open up this opportunity for you to express your interest. This ensures that you're considered for future roles!
Don't hesitate to apply if you don't meet 100% of the qualifications below. If you’re someone who identifies as a motivated self-starter and loves to thrive in ambiguity, we want to hear from you!
Here is what we (typically) expect from you
- Possess experience as a full-stack engineer, designer (both UX and UI), or PM in Agile web or data-powered product development.
- Ideally, have prior involvement in consulting or participation in discovery-driven custom product development teams.
- Demonstrate professional and empathetic communication, engaging all stakeholders, including clients and team members, with a sense of curiosity.
- Actively engage in soliciting and providing feedback to team members, offering assistance proactively, and ensuring alignment among all involved parties.
- Embrace accountability, even in situations where initiative is not explicitly requested.
- Work effectively within a collaborative, cross-functional team of developers, designers, and delivery managers.
- Display a willingness to learn from individuals at all levels, regardless of their title or position.
- Be open to occasional travel for client meetings.
- While our team primarily operates remotely, we highly value opportunities for in-person collaboration and social connections. Hence, candidates based in Chicago, IL, or Denver, CO, where a significant portion of our team is located, are strongly preferred
Who We Are
We’re a curious and humble group of people who are intentional about personal growth and supporting each other’s careers. We’re always looking for new skills, frameworks, and approaches to deliver the most meaningful digital product experiences. And we’re constantly pushing ourselves to experiment, explore, and challenge assumptions. We bring that same passion for learning and growth to our clients, by digging into their organizations, reframing their problem statements, and spending time with their users. This ensures that we’re pushing our clients forward while developing and delivering valuable products that matter.

Some reasons why you might like working with us
We have been recognized for both our internal employee experience and for delivering a trusted customer experience. At TXI, we are intentional about the way we work and how we support both our team and our clients.
1. We focus on Product Innovation by helping to envision initial new product concepts for our clients. We are core contributors to shaping the work that we do and the problems we're working to solve. In addition to that ideation stage, we get to help them bring these new concepts to market. We help both to build the right thing (design thinking and product discovery) and build the thing right (agile mindset and iterative approach).
2. We care about DEIB (diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging). To deliver the best solutions, we need as many bright and diverse minds in the room as possible, and we need to be able to learn from them once they’re there. That’s why we’re working to create an environment that’s inclusive for everyone. Learn more about our DEIB learnings, roadmap, and history: https://txidigital.com/deib
3. We work in a variety of industries and encourage our team members to explore new domains, solve different kinds of problems, and adopt new technologies. There is no getting bored in our portfolio. You’ll work across life science, healthcare, EdTech, manufacturing, and nonprofits–just to name a few–and build web, mobile, and IoT solutions.
4. We work in integrated teams (and occasionally we will work as staff augmentation if there's a good rationale for it). At TXI, we seek to bring all of the good ideas to the table so you learn from the talented teammates you regularly pair with. Product, design, and engineering regularly collaborate.
5. We are intentional about supporting each individual's growth. "Challenge and support each other" is a core value of the company and we take that mission seriously. That's why every employee has a personal learning & development budget and a bi-weekly conversation with their manager about their progress–as well as why we created career grids to equitably promote each person's path at TXI.
6. We believe that wellness and a sustainable pace deliver the best outcomes. We commit to being dedicated partners to our clients for a sustainable 35 hours per week. We don't require regular travel or client on-site time, though there will be occasional in-person client meetings to move work forward. Our team members enjoy flexible schedules with a remote-first working environment and discretionary time off because we respect that everyone has a life outside of work.
7. We value transparency and open discussion. You will have a front-line view of the company's performance, risks and issues, finances, and budgets. With unique tools and facilitation techniques, we also regularly connect and discuss topics as a company to guide our path forward.
8. We build products that matter. We advance the causes and goals of our partners and consistently deliver outcomes for them. See some examples below.
What We Make
For over two decades, we've partnered with clients across industries to research, design, and develop award-winning custom web and mobile applications that make a meaningful impact. These impacts include:
<> Transforming a data logger company to a global leader in tech-based environmental monitoring, driving the US industrial sector into Industry 4.0.
<> Empowering healthcare providers with powerful digital products to enhance the quality of patient care, streamline administrative tasks, and improve overall healthcare outcomes
<> Driving accountability and motivation for patients recovering from spinal surgery through integrated mobile app and wearable device on the patient’s lower back
<> Improving prediction of patient enrollment in global clinical trials for life-saving drugs through the integration of advanced analytics and digital innovation
<> Designing a digital experience to support LGBTQ+ 14-17-year-old youths who are facing societal and personal challenges prior to coming out, driven by evidence-based treatment and therapy plans
But the work is just part of what makes TXI a rewarding place to be. We support one another’s interests—whether volunteering, organizing meetups, speaking at industry events, or learning new techniques and technologies. If there's something you're passionate about, we want you to pursue it so you can teach it to the rest of us. Our company Brunch & Learns, Sticky Note Game, and regular practice meetings are just some of the ways we create space for sharing, learning, and professional development.
What We Offer
We believe in equitable pay. In addition to base compensation, we offer a bi-annual bonus based on company performance as well as the following benefits, which are intended to take care of you (and the people you care about):
- Discretionary (open) paid time off
- Quality health insurance and medical travel benefit
- Paid parental leave policy (equal for all TXI parents)
- 401k plan, including employer matching
- The option to work fully remotely with minimal client or onsite client work
- Company retreats and Quarterly days, both of which are a chance to connect in person and outside of the office
- Benefits for continuing education, donation matching, home office improvements, and renewable energy switching
- Employee Stock Ownership Program: TXI is 100% employee-owned through an ESOP, which grants shares of company stock to all employees as a retirement benefit
Location
While we do have a remote-first environment at TXI (with distributed team members in the US, Canada, and Europe who work from home), we have a strong preference for candidates who are located in or close to Chicago, IL (where most of our employees are based) as we encourage in-person collaboration and social connection.
We communicate and collaborate effectively in a remote environment using tools like Miro, Notion, Slack, and Zoom. We also prioritize virtual bonding and emphasize inclusivity, autonomy, and trust while cultivating a safe and welcoming environment that is conducive to supporting a positive employee experience.
While we encourage asynchronous communication, we often work in pairs or in collaboration sessions. Therefore, it is important to have some core hours of overlap with our clients and your fellow team members. Please also note that our consultants may have to travel on occasion to meet with clients. Regardless of where you are living and working, all TXIers have multiple opportunities throughout the year to meet and hang out in person to continue building those connections.
We take equality seriously
TXI is proud to be an equal opportunity workplace and is committed to equal opportunity employment without regard to race, religion, color, gender (including gender identity, change of sex, and transgender status), sexual orientation, age, disability, ancestry, national origin, military or veteran status, marital status, genetic information or any other characteristic protected by applicable law.
