- Utilize user feedback and usability testing to refine designs and improve overall functionality.
- Develop engaging digital graphics, illustrations, and other visual assets.
- Ensure that all design elements—from color schemes and typography to layout and imagery—are consistent and elevate the overall user experience.
- Partner with product managers, developers, and marketing teams to bring design concepts to life.
- Communicate design rationale clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
- Stay updated with the latest design trends, tools, and best practices, continuously bringing fresh ideas to the table.
We’re looking for someone who has:
- 3+ years of experience in product design, encompassing both UI/UX and visual design.
- A portfolio that demonstrates a strong blend of user experience problem solving and visually impactful design work.
- Proficiency in design and prototyping tools such as Figma, Sketch, Adobe XD, Adobe Creative Suite, or similar.
- Familiarity with front-end technologies (HTML, CSS, JavaScript) is a plus.
- Strong understanding of color theory, typography, composition, and visual hierarchy.
- Ability to balance creativity with analytical user experience strategies to achieve business goals.
- Would love to see all your experience with e-commerce/online retail (preferred but not required)
- We are all about giving our customers a great deal - any experience you have with deal sites will definitely help you stand out from the crowd.
- Submit a fabulous portfolio. Resumes without a link to a portfolio will not be considered.
