To be a successful on our team, you need to have strong leadership skills, passion for technology and design, have a strong customer focus, be a thoughtful mentor, take ownership in the product, and above all else, be a team player. This role is not just about creating great design, it's about understanding personas, figuring out what users want to do, and building a UI that makes our product simple and obvious to use.

As designer/developer, you’ll be responsible for capturing feature ideas from our sales, marketing, operations, and development teams, designing the full UX for those features, and implementing the front-end design. You’ll work closely with the rest of our development team to coordinate the functionality in the back end and business logic of our product to support your designs. And you will shape the future of our product line through your insights, analysis, and ability to define, communicate, and realize your UX vision.

  • Be the voice of the customer on our development team, providing clear goals and use cases that deliver incremental value to our customers

  • Review and manage the product’s vision, storyboards, and user workflows

  • Flesh-out feature requests: Conduct necessary research, capture use cases and value that will be delivered to the end-user when the feature is complete

  • Help the sales and marketing teams communicate the capabilities of the product and understand the needs they fulfill for our customers and prospects

  • Analyze product and feature usability via quantitative and qualitative methods

  • Keep abreast of competitor feature sets and the marketplace

 

Requirements

  • 3–5 years of UX design and front-end web development experience (HTML/CSS/JavaScript)

  • Refined aesthetic sense utilizing composition, balance, symmetry, and white space to both work within and expand our brand’s style

  • Understanding of what makes an experience good and bad; you empathize with our user’s problems, find stunning solutions, polish the details, and work with the whole team to execute them

  • Self-starter who constantly looks for ways to make in application experiences visually stunning without sacrificing simplicity in its experience

  • Attention to detail with every pixel, word, or requirement

  • User testing is part of your design process, and you welcome the chance to be wrong

  • Knowledge of Sketch, Illustrator, or other design/wireframing/prototyping tools

 

Bonus Points

  • Experience with prototyping and agile development

  • Experience defining interface transitions and animations

  • Experience maintaining style guides across multiple teams and products

 

Who you are:

  • You can teach yourself whatever you need to know and you’re not afraid to go find solutions to difficult problems that crop up

  • Technology is your friend, not your foe

  • You never say “That’s not my job”

  • You design products that help grow our user’s businesses 10x
