You’ll work with our existing agile technology team to build a platform that is forever changing the way people buy cars from dealerships. Designers who work for Joydrive create visually great design as well as doing great product design and user experience, and then implementing their designs with HTML and CSS (SASS). You will create user stories, task flows, use cases, etc. to build pages and screens and create a “best practices” workflow to our platform. Joydrive designers solve complex problems with thoughtful design, thus creating a beautiful and effective user experience. You will lead user testing, sketching, wireframing, and sitemapping in order to implement and make your ideas a reality. While HTML/CSS experience is a must, experience with Javascript is a plus.</span></p> <p class="p2"> </p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="font-size: 14px;"><strong>Job Duties</strong></span></p> <p class="p2"> </p> <ul class="ul1"> <ul class="ul1"> <li class="li1"><span class="s1" style="font-size: 14px;">Understanding of basic front-end languages: HTML5, CSS3/SASS</span></li> </ul> </ul> <p><span style="font-size: 14px;"> </span></p> <ul class="ul1"> <ul class="ul1"> <li class="li1"><span class="s1" style="font-size: 14px;">Understanding and experience using git and GitHub as part of your workflow</span></li> </ul> </ul> <p><span style="font-size: 14px;"> </span></p> <ul class="ul1"> <ul class="ul1"> <li class="li1"><span class="s1" style="font-size: 14px;">User Experience Design</span></li> </ul> </ul> <p><span style="font-size: 14px;"> </span></p> <ul class="ul1"> <ul class="ul1"> <li class="li1"><span class="s1" style="font-size: 14px;">Creating Mock-ups (low-fidelity and high-fidelity wireframes)</span></li> </ul> </ul> <p><span style="font-size: 14px;"> </span></p> <ul class="ul1"> <ul class="ul1"> <li class="li1"><span class="s1" style="font-size: 14px;">Usability Best Practices and User-Centered Design</span></li> </ul> </ul> <p><span style="font-size: 14px;"> </span></p> <ul class="ul1"> <ul class="ul1"> <li class="li1"><span class="s1" style="font-size: 14px;">Interaction Design (Adobe CC, Sketch, Invision, etc., and basic Graphic Design)</span></li> </ul> </ul> <p><span style="font-size: 14px;"> </span></p> <ul class="ul1"> <ul class="ul1"> <li class="li1"><span class="s1" style="font-size: 14px;">Feature Development and Product Management / User Advocacy</span></li> </ul> </ul> <p><span style="font-size: 14px;"> </span></p> <ul class="ul1"> <ul class="ul1"> <li class="li1"><span class="s1" style="font-size: 14px;">Ability to design simple, usable experiences that scale across a complex suite of multiple platforms (web, smartphone, tablet)</span></li> </ul> </ul> <p><span style="font-size: 14px;"> </span></p> <p class="p2"> </p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="font-size: 14px;"><strong>Qualifications</strong></span></p> <p class="p2"> </p> <ul class="ul1"> <ul class="ul1"> <li class="li1"><span class="s1" style="font-size: 14px;">Experience working with an agile development process and a design sprint approach</span></li> </ul> </ul> <p><span style="font-size: 14px;"> </span></p> <ul class="ul1"> <ul class="ul1"> <li class="li1"><span class="s1" style="font-size: 14px;"><span style="font-size: 14px;">Experience working on a distributed</span><span style="font-size: 14px;"> team (or experience working remotely)</span></span></li> </ul> </ul> <p><span style="font-size: 14px;"> </span></p> <ul class="ul1"> <ul class="ul1"> <li class="li1"><span class="s1" style="font-size: 14px;">Ability to work in a fast-paced, rapidly changing environment</span></li> </ul> </ul> <p><span style="font-size: 14px;"> </span></p> <ul class="ul1"> <ul class="ul1"> <li class="li1"><span class="s1" style="font-size: 14px;">Desire and passion to change a decades-old industry</span></li> </ul> </ul> <p><span style="font-size: 14px;"> </span></p> <ul class="ul1"> <ul class="ul1"> <li class="li1"><span class="s1" style="font-size: 14px;">Strong work ethic and positive attitude</span></li> </ul> </ul> <p><span style="font-size: 14px;"> </span></p> <ul class="ul1"> <ul class="ul1"> <li class="li1"><span class="s1" style="font-size: 14px;">Asks questions and challenges decisions they disagree with thorough & thoughtful discourse</span></li> </ul> </ul> <p><span style="font-size: 14px;"> </span></p> <p class="p2"> </p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="font-size: 14px;">All persons hired will be required to verify identity and eligibility to work in the United States and to complete the required employment eligibility verification upon hire. </span>Joydrive is a drug-free company.
