We’re growing our team again and are looking for top talent to join us on our mission helping the worlds top chefs manage their menus smarter using our super smart web app.
We’re not a start-up – we have a lot of experience and a very active user base who love our app. Our team are incredibly passionate about what we do and we love putting our heads together and solving our users problems together. We might be 20 years old as a company but we’re as young and innovative as we have always been.
We’re looking for someone with proven experience to take this to the next level. Someone at the top of their game who want to be part of something big.
This is a full time remote role. We value everyone working local business hours when we perform at our best. You’ll be part of a growing team committed to innovating new features dreaming about what the future holds.
We work an agile process with daily stand-ups. We value everyones opinion and like to solve problems together. We like to challenge our thinking with A/B testing and value our users’ feedback whenever possible.
We’re not starting from scratch with this and one of our pillars of design is evolution, not revolution. Our users have built this app to be what it is today (not us) and understanding their problems is what drives us (not stakeholders). Any decisions we make are made for the sake of simplifying something and making it easier and faster to use. This is what drives us. We’re not afraid to re-think things, but we need to understand the reasons why we’re doing it and the impact this has on users. We research users – not competitors. When we learn something we like to share this with the team.
Your responsibilities will include:
• Learning the current app and how it works
• Creating and maintaining components in Figma
• Finding UI/ UX issues and suggesting ways to improve them
• Design creative and clean product designs
• Adhering to and maintaining our brand guidelines
• Think through the UX and communicate design rationale and decisions with product, engineering, marketing, and leadership.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to identify user needs and design solutions that solve user problems.
• Creating wireframes, prototypes, and high-fidelity designs using Figma.
• Conducting user research to inform design decisions.
• Staying up-to-date with industry trends and best practices
Ideally you would have:
• Bachelor’s degree in Design or related field.
• 3+ years of experience designing web apps
• High proficiency in Figma.
• Ability to reduce complex problems down to flexible, intuitive patterns and solutions.
• Ability to communicate design rationale and decisions with product, engineering, marketing, and leadership.
• Experience working with data to inform design decisions.
• A drive to understand our users and solve their problems
• Strong visual design skills
• An understanding of the psychology of human-computer interaction
• Solid knowledge of web design and modern UI/UX principles
• Strong creative and technical skills
• Strong written and communication skills to work with both product owner, users, data scientists, BA, PM and directly with developers.
• Hands-on experience in working with agile development practices
