Curiosity wanted
Science of Apps hires behavioural UX researchers, product designers, UX writers and product analysts on paid, remote contracts as client projects need them. There are no fixed openings: send your CV and two or three work samples to scienceofappsofficial@gmail.com. We reply within two weeks, then hold one call and a paid trial project.
Science of Apps is psychology for products that expect more.
More clarity. More evidence. More signal, less opinion. Because the teams we work with don’t settle for “it looks fine”.
We help app and SaaS teams understand why users stop, hesitate and leave — and what to change first. Every diagnosis ties what people do on screen to the behavioural principle behind it, then turns that into a short, prioritised roadmap.
If you find people endlessly interesting and want your work to change how real products feel, join us.
The stars we steer by
Evidence
We anchor every finding in an established behavioural principle and in what real users said and did — never in taste.
Why, not what
Anyone can list problems. We explain why they happen, what they cost and what to change first.
Ethics
We design for choices people would endorse on reflection. No dark patterns, no fake urgency, no exceptions.
Focus
A short, prioritised roadmap beats an exhaustive one. We cut until only the changes that matter are left.
Craft
Clients judge us on every slide, sentence and screenshot. We sweat the details so the insight lands.
Good work starts with good conditions.
How you work
Small team, real ownership. You work on live products with founders and product leads, not on decks nobody reads.
- Remote-first, async by default
- Flexible hours around client overlap
- Work directly with the founder
- Scoped engagements of 2–4 weeks
How you grow
Behavioural design is a craft you learn by doing. You will do a lot of it, across many kinds of products.

How you're paid
Clear terms, agreed up front, paid on time. We discuss rates openly in the first conversation.
- Project-based or retainer contracts
- Rates agreed before work starts
- Paid trial projects — never unpaid tests
We’re building from everywhere.
Our home base is New Delhi, India, but the work is global. We collaborate remotely with product, growth and design teams across 6 regions: India, United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and the European Union.
