UI/UX Designer

Job updated 거의 3년 ago

Job Description

We’re a small company, with a big vision...creating something that really matters.

We make it easy for anybody concerned about climate change to take meaningful action - across pretty much anything they do online. It’s different from anything else on the market, and our testing has us optimistic that we might be onto something special (impact + business case).

We’re looking for a UI/UX Designer to act as lead in to helping us build out our core experience - for our company and/or our product - across our target use cases, customer touch points, and community engagement mechanisms. We will be publicly launching our initial product shortly, and so that’s where the real fun begins. We have a great design foundation in place, but we expect to learn a tremendous amount once we launch, and are committed to taking a modern, best-practices, experimentation-driven product design process approach from that point on.

We’re looking for a great designer, but also for one who is comfortable striking the right balance between smart design, and the need for rapidly responding to customer & community feedback. Customer value creation will be at the core of everything we do, but you’ll be at the core of defining and experimenting with how we create that value.

----------

WHAT YOU’LL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR:

  • Implementing & improving upon our product targets and designs for our web solution and browser extensions. Seeing what we have, understanding our goals, and finding ways to make it better.
  • Rapidly iterating & prototyping promising ideas, with an experimentation-driven mindset focused on customer value creation. 
  • Expanding our use cases & customer touchpoints, such that we help as many people as possible to make better environmental decisions, across whatever they want to do online.
  • Working on a day-to-day basis with our developers, community engagement managers, and broader team to deliver simplified, compelling user experiences that create measurable user value, move key metrics, bring about real change, and position us to scale into the future.
  • Owning and refining our visual identity.

----------

TARGET TOOL SETS & EXPERIENCE

  • Modern web design experience, with some browser extension experience being ideal.
  • Mobile design experience.
  • Ideally, Figma and/or Sketch experience.
  • Ideally, Zeplin experience.
  • Ideally, experience with modern, experimentation-driven MVP testing and product-market fit exploration.

----------

WHO WE’RE LOOKING FOR:

  • Smart, passionate people, who are driven to help find solutions to climate change (or at least, interested in tough design challenges).
  • Effective communicators, with good remote collaboration skills, as our working culture allows for flexibility, and a portion of the team is distributed outside of Taiwan (globally).
  • Able to run lean, iterate quickly, and continuously strive for improvement.
  • Creative and self-motivated when finding solutions to uncertain and difficult challenges.
  • Somebody who makes everybody around them better. Somebody who people want to work with. Somebody who does what they say they’ll do.
  • Ultimately, somebody who is looking to tackle a tough challenge, to grow their own personal responsibility (NOT be told what to do), and who is able and trusted to move quickly. 

----------

ABOUT US:

We’re a Taipei, Taiwan-based company, with international aspirations on Day 1, and a team to prove it. We’re seed funded, and a few weeks away from public launch. Our product has a clear initial target audience, and (we believe) the ability to scale far beyond the growing set of people who currently see climate change as an urgent issue. We use modern practices, and optimize for learning, for moving quickly, and for efficiency. We sometimes use run-on sentences :).

We’re entrepreneurs, technologists, and scientists. We’ve built and sold startups, have run product efforts for unicorns (like Gogoro), and worked on lots of innovative products with innovative people.

We want to work at a great place, on a product that makes a difference. We want you to make us better.

If interested, please email Ken Wall at [email protected] for more information, or check out our (admittedly very cryptic, purposefully non-informative, Upwork-coded) website at https://melio.group.

Requirements

  • Good English proficiency, and experience working in multi-cultural / international environments.
  • At least 3-5 years of experience in software design, using the tool sets outlined above (work, academic).
  • Degree in a design-related (or usability-related) field is helpful, but not required.
  • Experience working in a startup is helpful, but not required.
  • Experience working on community-powered solutions is helpful, but not required.

Interview process

  1. 30 minute call to assess mutual fit. Info gathering for both sides
  2. Full interview, consisting of interviews with multiple people. Ideally in-person.
