ColorElephant
Posted 3 years ago
Looking for the next big move in your career? We’re a fully remote (since before covid!) international digital studio (growing 2x yearly, 30+ people) looking to hire a UI/UX Designer. Sounds intriguing? Read on…


🥱 The TL:DR;

We’re looking for a skilled designer to join our team. You’ll do both UX and UI. On one end, you’ll work with our clients, strategists and other stakeholders to produce low and high fidelity wireframes that realistically reproduce the needs of our clients and the UX best practices. On the other, you’ll develop UI for both applications and websites that elevates our clients brands. Your style is clean and modern and aligned with most modern web development. You pride yourself of attention to detail and hate stuff that looks bad (like you get itching with misalignments). You’ll work alongside Internal Project Managers and Senior Strategist. This is a fully-remote, permanent, full-time position.


👉 This is for you if…

1. You’re looking for a remote, long-term position
2. You have experience (2/3 years) in UI/UX at a production level;
3. You can go from briefings and interviews with clients and other stakeholders to low-fi wireframes;
4. You have experience in Figma;
5. You’re able to communicate clearly and articulate your thought process;
6. You’re able to follow design and UX best practices;
7. You have a modern style and are used to developing both website and app UIs;
8. You need to be curious;

Note: You’ll see we never specify stuff like “Be a team player” or “Be dedicated” and stuff like that. That is a base requirement for any position these days, but just know we also like these things people usually ask for:  motivated, focused, hard-worker that likes to grow and learn more, that works well with others and has a positive attitude 😎


💪 This is even better if…

1. You have experience in iterative design sprints;
2. You have experience with user interviews;
3. You can create prototypes.
4. You demonstrate strategic thinking — able to identify needs and opportunities and translate them into design decisions;
5. Experience with Whimsical for wireframing;
6. Experience with ZeroHeight for design-to-code design system documentation


👩🏻‍💻 What you’ll do
