Envision your app design coming to life. How does that make you feel? Because if you can design it, you should be able to build it. 

 

That`s why we`re looking for a Junior User Interface Designer with a drive to learn frontend development. Experience is less important, but you do need to be a highly visual thinker and a problem solver who wants to master color, contrast, typography and frontend technologies. 

 

So, if you`ve ever:

  • drawn something on a napkin to explain it better
  • used a tool for something other than it`s intended purpose
  • got annoyed by an ugly, hard to use website
  • enrolled in a web dev MOOC as part of your New Year`s resolution 

 

We might be a match.


 

We hire for attitude & creativity and train for skill. So, apply if you are:

  • A details person - you know improvement is cumulative. Small changes lead to significant shifts and we`re not talking about design only.
  • A person with a thing for people & technology (and how they work together) - you like picking people`s brains and you like technology. What`s more, you`re interested in how people use technology and why
  • Very organized - in fancier terms, you possess systems thinking.
  • Visually inclined - you can recognize good design when you see it. Ideally, you know why it`s good or, at least, have certain intuitions.


 

Apply if you have:

  • A basic understanding of UI principles
  • A basic understanding of responsive design
  • An idea, a project, a basic portfolio, an account on Dribble or UpLabs - anything to showcase your design thinking, including mock projects. 


 

These are nice-to-haves:

  • Working knowledge of UI design tools, such as Figma or Sketch
  • A graphic design background, with some drawing skills (bonus points for mastering the Pen Tool and vectors)
  • Basic knowledge of Adobe Illustrator or Photoshop 
  • Some practical knowledge of HTML/CSS 

 

 

This is what you are going to learn and eventually do on your own:

  • Entirely redesign or improve the interface of existing apps using UI Kits or from scratch
  • Deliver engaging user interfaces across a range of web app
  • Map out user flows and make sure design decisions compliment the overall user experience and journey
  • Code the frontend and make it look amazing
  • Work closely with backend developers to ensure final design meets standards 


 

This is why you should do it:    

  • You`ll build a portfolio of clients from all over the world;
  • You`ll work with start-ups and MVPs and get a chance to have a real impact on the world;
  • You`ll get familiar with software development and web technologies from various perspectives: client brief, design, frontend development, backend development;
  • We have created a fun and flexible working environment, complete with awesome colleagues and we aim to keep it this way.
