Userspace has a Board of Directors, but it
is not a top-heavy organization. Everyone is a critical member
of the Userspace team, and each employee's input is valued.
We look for Board members who consider alternatives.
Each of our Principals has more than 14 years experience
in his/her professional areas. Typically, we offer challenging careers
with real-world problem-solving and the opportunity for creative input.
