About the Role
You’ll play an important part in the entire product development process, from brainstorming to launch. You’ll be part of a UX team where each designer is responsible for different areas of our product and integrated into individual scrum teams. You’ll be a driver for all aspects of product design and execution, including pitching ideas, designing the experience (visual design, interaction design, and prototyping), and communicating the solutions to necessary audiences within the company.
You’ll work closely with the Product Manager and Developers to create elegant solutions to problems our customers are facing. The product team also includes front-end developers who share our passion to deliver a great user experience throughout our platform.

- Has a portfolio of top-notch product work that demonstrates strong design thinking and methodologies.
- Has the ability to clearly communicate design rationale and conceptual ideas.
- Can define success metrics for a new product or feature, and create the appropriate mechanisms to measure success after it launches.
- Is in tune with what is going on in the world of technology, and considers how they might implement new thinking and ideas in their work.
- Naturally seeks to mentor and inspire more junior designers on the team, and to lead by example.
- Is curious, hungry to learn, and loves to understand how things work.
- Is nimble and thrives in a feedback cycle measured in hours rather than weeks.
- Partners across teams at every stage to deliver the highest level of quality.
- Can assess customer usage patterns and remove roadblocks to help them successfully complete key tasks.
- Can validate designs directly with customers, and use both data and customer feedback to refine concepts or new features.
- Loves to see their work ship — quickly.
- Has strong business acumen and ability to think strategically about product initiatives.
- Proficient in UX research techniques and testing activities to assess user behavior.
- Wants to take responsibility for and measure the success of new designs.
- Has a "get it done" attitude and proven background of delivering beautiful work again and again.

With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.
