HiDef Web Solutions: User Experience Designer
(Denver, Albuqerque, or greater Southwest) Let's talk about you
You're a "design thinker" who wants to be personally vested in the project you're working on. You can't help but think of design improvements as you interact with the systemsof everyday life.
Not only do you have an insatiable appetite for the best user experience, but you also want to be able to come home from a hard day's work and talk about the great cause you helped with your skills.
Join a skilled team whose integrity and compassion produces innovative solutions for great causes. We specialize in the complex problems by putting the user experience first and implementing the latest in technology and services to produce cost-effective solutions that deliver results to nonprofits and social enterprises.
In other words, we're big agency talent on a personal scale, and you're going to love working with us.
A typical day with us might find you:
- Taking part in a 15-minute scrum to sync up goals and communicate needs across the entire team.
- Creating wireframes for amazing user experiences that you'll do rapid refinement on with team and client feedback.
- Working closely with your development team to understand limitations, timelines, and adjust accordingly.
- Cutting a completed Photoshop design into XHTML and CSS and handing it off to your development team member for implementation.
- Writing "on brand" content for all aspects of the signup process for a new web application, then handing it off for polish to a Communications teammate.
- Using screensharing and a Skype call to present initial wireframes for a hot new app to the Creative Director and getting feedback for a second round.
- Sketching up branding elements based on creative discovery for a great cause who needs it badly.
You'll need these skills to pay the bills:
- Tons of expertise and demonstrable experience with CSS/XHTML and an ability to produce W3C standards-compliant code.
- Expert-level knowledge of design applications such as Photoshop, Illustrator, and/or other tools of the trade.
- Demonstrable experience in information architecting that shows your ability to make key decisions that will effect user experience from the start of any project.
- Solid foundation in web application and mobile user interface design.
- A mind that loves considering branding and marketing implications, not just pixel-pushin'.
Our smile will be even bigger if you can say any of the following:
- "Let me show you this nonprofit experience I have."
- "I can't help but install new apps, design frameworks, and even development platforms and tinker with them."
- "Check out this sweet iOS application I designed."
- "I follow design blogs, magazines, and otherwise disruptive design sites religiously."
