Responsibilities

As our first full-time Product Designer, you’ll have the opportunity to research & create new, exciting features for our game organizers & participants. You will work closely with our customers and collaborate with our product & revenue teams to ensure we’re building the right thing in a beautiful, usable way.

Specific responsibilities include:

• Being familiar and up-to-date with existing platform functionality and the use cases our customers have for those features.


• Taking ownership of ideas all the way from the initial prototype phase to the final high-fidelity mockups phase and conducting the required customer & internal stakeholder research to get there.


• Participating as an integral member of the product team - we’re looking for someone who will readily work with the engineering team to understand existing design patterns for cost-effective development, while still prioritizing user delight!


• Collaborating with the marketing team to create and design a mesmerizing story that immerses our customers in their journey through the product.


• Working under limited supervision with significant latitude for the use of initiative and independent judgment.

Requirements

The candidate for this position must have:

• 3+ years of product or UI/UX design experience.


• A strong portfolio that highlights your ability to take concepts & turn them into highly usable, beautiful designs that achieve the desired business goals.


• An ability to take ownership of work, maintaining high standards of design quality despite limited supervision.


• Experience with standard design tools such as Sketch, Invision, etc.


• Excellent written & verbal communication skills - as you may be occasionally writing customer facing copy, there’s a strong preference for native or near-native fluency in English.

Although not required, it would be a big plus if the candidate:

• Had past experience working with smaller teams, especially in a remote setting.


• Is located within, or has regular working hours within the GMT-6 (CST) to GMT+1 (CET) time zones to ensure sufficient overlap with our distributed product team.


• Has a passion for great stories!
