Role Expectations
You'll be joining as our second full-time designer, on a total engineering/product/design/QA team of 19 people. We operate in cross-functional product teams, each focused on an area of the product.
As a member of our Design team, you'll find yourself...
- gaining a deep understanding of our users' needs, and finding the simplest, most elegant way to solve for them.
- focusing on wireframes first, to ensure the solution works before investing in high-fidelity.
- testing your designs with users, and finding fast ways to (in)validate your work.
- working closely with the Engineering team to explain your logic and ensure alignment.
- maintaining and improving the app map/flow, and other documentation, or ensure the whole team understands how the product works.
We are looking for a senior-level UX designer to join the team. We offer a generous salary based on experience and location, which could be anywhere from $50,000 to $90,000 per year.
We'd love to talk with you if…
- the work sounds exciting!
- you have plenty of experience designing consumer products for Android, and a strong familiarity with Material Design.
- you enjoy being wrong and don't take yourself too seriously.
- you are excited to deliver functional, pragmatic, and clean designs at a fast pace.
- you prefer to focus on wireframes over high-fidelity UI.
- you’re a clear, empathetic communicator.
- you love to understand the entire system of the product.
- you have reliable methods to test your work quickly.
