We’re looking for a Lead Interaction Designer to join the team at our brand new (but well-funded) startup. We’re based in downtown San Francisco and we can talk about what we do when we meet up, but we think it’s pretty cool.
We need you to come help with making this thing both easy as well as thoroughly fun and enjoyable to use. We have a visual design team (in-house and agency) onboard, so you get to be responsible for the Interaction Design side of things but have a healthy debate with the people doing the other kind of design.
The kind of stuff you’ll be doing:
- Map out user journeys and think up great content, interactions and patterns
- Make the product make sense in a flash of a second we have with someone
- Test, test, test (or at least get someone to do it for you)
- Work with product and tech people to wrestle the technology into doing what you want it to
- Be a strong and consistent voice of clarity and simplicity in design and messaging
- Find/hire/manage designers
The kind of person we’re looking for:
- Well-argued and opinionated designer
- A good writer (writing is designing, as they say)
- Conscientious and detail-oriented
- Comfortable with managing and prioritizing own and other’s time
The kind of experience we expect:
- 3-5 years of experience in a Lead Designer role
- Great documentation and wireframe skills
- People management experience preferred
- A great portfolio
We can promise the usual startup-life of hard work, fast pace and lots and lots of responsibility. Luckily we also have some benefits, like health, dental and 401(K).
