Opis oferty pracy

We’re looking for a Passionate Product Designer to join our Whiteboards.io team. You will work in a true empowered product team discovering, testing and delivering product features for users around the globe.

Whiteboards is an up and coming collaboration platform allowing product and software teams to better communicate, facilitate meetings, manage projects and agile ceremonies.

What will you do at whiteboards:

• Help us further develop Whiteboards.io by discovering user needs and turning them into product design solutions, providing amazing experiences and values for users.
• Proactively identify both small and large usability issues and influence the team to prioritise them.
• Be a part of a self-organising, cross-functional team. Cooperate closely with Software Engineers, Designers, Product Managers, and other specialists like Product Marketeers or Support Engineers.
• Mentor other members on how to approach design problems, solicit feedback, and drive for impactful outcomes.
• Have a real impact over product features and roadmap.
• Share your thoughts openly and honestly on what would be the best for the customers and the business.
• Decide freely about your day and assignments – we do not micromanage people and we do care about work & life balance.
• Be the change you seek – if you see that something can be improved, suggest how and make it happen (alone or by engaging your colleagues).
• Mentor other team members by applying your expertise and communication skills.

Skills we’re looking for:

• Minimum of 6 years experience in the UX & UI design role with strong preference for SaaS applications.
• A sound portfolio presenting processes & outcomes – we will ask you to provide us with your portfolio in the first stage of the recruitment process.
• Good mix of UX as well as UI skills. We’re looking for the ability to take the user value idea from a low-fi sketch / wireframe to the hi-fidelity UI.
• Ability to independently plan, conduct and draw conclusions from solution validations, exploratory user research sessions, usability testings and other qualitative ways of uncovering user needs, attitudes and pain-points.
• Ability to effectively articulate concepts, ideas and processes through sketches, wireframes, storyboards, prototypes, user-flows and the like.
• Experience in working according to and with Style Guides and Design Systems;
• Very good knowledge of Figma. Other tools are a plus!
• Fluent English is a must. Both written and verbal. User interviews and many internal meetings in English.

For a senior role you will also need:

• Good UX writing skills.
• Working knowledge of information architecture, systems architecture and design.
• Rich experience in deriving decisions based on data.
• Good understanding of the features and processes in the software project management category (ie. Jira, Trello, Github)
• Practical experience with agile practices and methodologies.
• Experience with building, maintaining and updating Design Systems.

Nice to have, but not essential:

• Motion Design / Animation / Micro-animation
• Video editing
• Formal Product Design / Interaction Design education
