UI/UX Designer

Ordr Background

At Ordr, we are singularly focused on helping our customers find calm where once there was chaos.

We make the incredibly complex incredibly simple, and we take great pride in the fact that we continually strive for approachable innovation in everything we do.

In today’s hyper-connected enterprise, where everything from access badge scanners to digital signage to inventory control systems to multi-million-dollar healthcare and manufacturing systems are connected to the network, traditional network regulation and security models simply cannot scale.

Ordr solves this problem, providing enterprises with complete visibility and exhaustive control over every class of network-connected device and system.

Simply put, we provide our customers with the power to take control of their connected devices, of their operational systems, of their hyper-connected enterprise.
