About the role The designer we’re looking for is fluent in current design best practices, and also knows exactly when to throw them out the window and blaze a new trail. You’ll be involved in every aspect of the product development process – from brainstorming the next feature, finding design problems through data – to tweaking pixels right up to code freeze if necessary.
You never make a design decision without considering the impact on the overall experience. You’re comfortable quickly iterating your way to a final, well-thought-out solution.
Responsibilities
- Work closely with our Engineers, Managers to define the best approach to a problem.
- Create the right documentation for the task at hand, ranging from a sketch on Invision to an annotated mockup that a developer can run with.
- Pivot between contributing to high-level product decisions – and understanding the low-level implications of those discussions.
- Help establish and reinforce consistent design patterns.
- Give and solicit feedback from your fellow team members in order to constantly raise the bar.
Requirements 1. You possess excellent communication skills.
2. Some experience with front-end programming.
3. The ability to think at a high level about product strategy and vision (not just ‘how it should look’ but ‘what we should build’).
4. Experience in building and shipping applications or software.
5. Must have a portfolio featuring examples of interaction design work.
- Full Time position, no freelancers
- Passion and ideas about where the Etsuri product can go
- Hands-on experience designing mobile interfaces
