Compensation: $100,000.00 to $175,000.00 per year

The Creative Group is seeking a Senior UI/UX Designer or Creative Director for a well-funded start-up transforming the music industry, empowering artists by giving them a command center for their brand. You will design web and mobile apps that enable inventive new distribution and revenue models. You will be responsible for designing user experiences (interaction/flow and visual) for new web and mobile products and features, working in close collaboration with passionate product managers and engineers in a stylish SOMA loft space with pumping tunes and home cooked breakfasts and lunches. You should have a digital portfolio containing a significant corpus of high quality web and mobile user interface designs; strong cognitive and communications skill, articulate in spoken and written English, built upon an underlying fundamental clarity of thought and a general ability to synthesize simple, elegant, minimal designs for complex tasks; rapid prototyping skills including the ability to produce static and interactive mocks, for use in communicating or testing UI designs; and a willingness to roll up sleeves and do whatever it takes with ego in check. For education, you should have a BA/BS/BFA in art, product design, human-computer interaction, computer science or similar creative field preferred.

Responsibilities

Interaction Design - Imagine, communicate, and iteratively improve useful and highly intuitive human-computer interactions on web and mobile devices, expressing them as wireframes, flow diagrams, information hierarchies, etc. Basic understanding of designing for the web, including limitations and design consequences of HTML/CSS and Javascript.

Visual Design - Building upon rough wireframes, produce beautiful, polished, high fidelity graphic designs for products and features. Utilize layout, color, fonts, and motion to convey affordance, communicate semantics, and transmit information hierarchy, thereby maximizing the usability of the product. Produce original illustrations. Preference for clean, modern, minimal design aesthetic--but with soul and a bit of rebellious edge.

Marketing Creative - The company is small, so the Design team also spends ~10% time supporting the marketing function. For example, you might occasionally be asked to help design the corporate website, produce external videos, design display ads, shoot original photos, etc.

User Research - Design and administer user research and usability tests, utilizing a variety of techniques, qualitative and quantitative, structured and ad hoc.

Additional Responsibilities (if Manager/Director)

Creative Leadership - Provide exceptional thought leadership in all facets of design (e.g., interaction, visual, etc.). Coach and develop a team of designer, helping them to grow individually and as a team.

Management - Operationally supervise a team of designers, prioritizing and managing a queue of design projects. Contribute to the design and continual improvement of an end-to-end product development process. Hire, evaluate, and develop a team of world class designers.
