Job description

We'relooking for aUser Experience Leadto integrate art, technology, and engineering to identify, create, and support the client and partner interactions with ourproducts and brand. This is a senior role requiring a unique mixture of hands on skills with a high degree of conceptual understanding.

You will be able to understand and apply concepts typically devoted to both the right (creative) and left (logical) sides of the brain, eg art and engineering. In doing so you will leverage skills from one skill group in application of another (i.e. able to execute good design choices while writing HTML). It will be expected that you can easily work across disciplines (i.e. switch between writing unit tests to illustrating iconography). As a senior staff member, it will be paramount that you can communicate effectively between teams of contrasting backgrounds and skill sets and work closely with senior stakeholders as well as users, clients, and partners.

Responsibilities

Understand and implement CI/CD in the context of the UI for web-based technologies across all device types
Architect scalable, predictable, and maintainable technological solutions for UIs
Base expertise in frameworks against concepts instead of implementations
Define, document, and enforce coding standards utilizing industry best practices
Clearly articulate direction and expectations of the team and its members
Understand and leverage Agile principles both conceptually and applied (i.e. JIRA)
Make decisions which drive both creative and technical direction of products
Present and speak to stakeholders, customers, or investors during all aspects of product design and execution
Lead whiteboarding/brainstorming sessions through visual note taking and facilitating participant discussions
Bring new ideas and vantage points to design discussions and decisions
Understand how design and art need to work together in a practical application of usability
Create wireframes and/or prototypes to get user feedback into product design early and often
Use research when appropriate to inform design decisions
Know and use graphic programs to product visual assets
