Title: UI Designer

Location: San Francisco, CA

Concept: Cloud based B2b SaaS

Recent funding: $6 million

Employees to date: 25

Sitting in the epicenter of the San Francisco tech scene is a small, astoundingly fast growing and solidly backed SaaS company that is helping people on the front lines of customer service smile a little more often.  If you like making people smile then please read on…

  • As part of this tight team, you get the chance to solve significant, game-changing problems and work on really interesting projects.

  • And you’ll enjoy a bright, hip environment with comprehensive benefits and healthcare, generous option participation, the chance to work with other cool and really committed folks, use the biggest Apple monitors around, eat and drink free yummies, and work in the center of the SanFran tech scene.

The leadership is seasoned, having worked together to build 2 previous success stories, lowering the risk and improving the odds of this being a great equity play. And they really do value people (and the dogs they work alongside).

They are looking for a highly-motivated UI designer to contribute in shaping the user interface of their SaaS product and strengthening their online presence across web, tablet, and mobile devices. They drive their product by the user experience, and need someone with the skills who can keep up and push the vision forward.

You will work directly with the Creative Director and Product Development team to build experiences that reinforce the brand and help Wow customers. You will get to work in an exciting and engaging agile startup environment where you will be encouraged to expand your skills, test your creative boundaries, share new ideas, and most importantly – have fun.

In a nutshell you’ll: 

  • Design, iterate, and refine UI and UX concepts for the company’s core products

  • Elegantly bring designs to life using standards-compliant dynamic HTML and CSS

  • Work directly with the Creative Director to insure we maintain a high-quality user experience

  • Work directly with the VP of Product to meet the demands of customers, while at the same time continuing to innovate far beyond the competition

  • Be a team player in a flat-structured, highly collaborative environment

 What you bring to the table: 

  • You are a master of your craft and tools. As a designer you are expected to have a dominating control over Photoshop and Illustrator, as well as create satisfying interfaces boasting user-centered design principles for our core applications. Bonus for a dribbble or other online portfolio.

  • You get excited to work with some of the coolest clients on the web on a product that people love using. From 37signals to Twitter, they're building software that real companies are using and they need you to contribute to their evolution. You must be excited about your role! Anybody can build something that’s “good”, but true passion breeds “incredible”.

  • You like to deliver real results. So, you’ve got some design and prototyping chops but do you have the ability to bring your work to life? This is very much a startup environment and you’ll need to wear a few different hats, this is also a great opportunity to expand your skills. Bonus if you’re also able to build those great experiences with HTML, CSS, and Javascript.

  • This goes without saying, but you must be able to communicate your ideas and designs with the team. There is also a chance you will have to receive feedback from clients. For that reason alone, you must have excellent written and oral communication skills.

  • Curiosity, creativity, and ambition. Expensive diploma or not, true talent isn’t always something that can be taught in school. Ideally you would have done similar work formally or informally; but maybe you’re gifted, self taught or have been freelancing for years. If you think you have what it takes let us know. Bonus if you write or contribute to any industry related blogs.
