We're a small, well-funded startup looking for a talented visual/UI designer with the desire to grow into all areas of product and UX design.
THE OPPORTUNITY
This is your chance to join a talented and hardworking team of 5 people driven to make great products that improve people's lives. You'll spend most of your time working side-by-side with our lead designer (an Adaptive Path alum) in an end-to-end product design process doing:
- User Research
- Product Strategy
- Brainstorming
- Sketching
- Interaction Design
- User Testing
- Visual/UI Design
- Product Branding
You don't need to be an expert at all of these things – that's why you'll be working in a design pair, so you can build on each others' strengths. This is a rare opportunity: having TWO designers working together at a startup this small.
It’s a fantastic chance to craft a user experience from concept to shipping product, backed by an outstanding engineering team, deep technology, and solid business.
ABOUT YOU
First and foremost, we're looking for a talented visual/UI designer with impeccable taste who can craft beautiful mobile interfaces – someone who sweats the details and strives for Apple-quality (or better) pixel perfection.
You'll also be involved in every part of the design process, from user research and strategy to interaction design and branding. The right person for the job will see this as a big plus!
Here’s some basic stuff we’re looking for:
- 1-3 years experience doing UI design
- Experience designing gorgeous iPhone app UIs
- Impeccable design taste
- A curious nature and a desire to learn all aspects of product design
Extra points to folks with experience in:
- Industrial design
- Branding and logo design
- Android app design
- Web design
Previous work history and an extensive portfolio are a plus, but our main goal is to find someone with great taste who's willing to work hard and grow with us.
ABOUT US
We're a well-funded early-stage startup based in downtown San Francisco, working to redefine a product millions of people use every day – and make it great. (Sorry to be so vague, we're happy to share more once you get in touch with us.) We're a diverse team of 5 people consisting mostly of UC Berkeley grads. We participated in Y Combinator this summer and have been funded by some of the most respected VCs in Silicon Valley. We're working hard to launch in the next few months, and we're looking for a talented visual/UI designer to join our team and help us make a dent in the universe.
INTRIGUED? APPLY!
If you think you'd be a great addition to our team, please send your resume and portfolio to ucbstartup@gmail.com. Also, send along a few links to design work you find inspiring and a short explanation why.
We offer competitive salaries, equity and medical/dental/vision insurance. We’re happy to consider applications from folks not living in the Bay Area who are willing to relocate.
