Lead Designer

Roles and responsibilities

In this position, you will be responsible for creating comprehensive design guidelines, systematizing design files, and developing adaptive versions of web products. Your role will also involve ensuring a seamless handoff of these products to the development team. You will enhance our web offerings by balancing aesthetics, business objectives, and user experience, all while collaborating with another designer to devise innovative solutions.

Key Responsibilities

Your primary focus will be on the design aspect, but you will also need to consider the underlying systems that make these designs functional. This involves analyzing and structuring large amounts of data to ensure that your designs meet both creative and business requirements. You'll be expected to manage your workload independently, assessing tasks accurately to meet deadlines without compromising quality. Proficiency in Figma is essential, particularly for large projects that require a deep understanding of UI kits, AutoLayout, and components.

As part of your duties, you will tackle projects from a blank slate, showcasing your ability to develop concepts rapidly while adhering to core design principles. Your work will involve not only creating visually appealing designs but also ensuring that they function effectively across different platforms and devices. A systematic approach to design is crucial; you should have a keen eye for components, layout options, and overall structure.

In summary, this role requires a dynamic designer who can blend creativity with systematic approaches to meet business goals while enhancing user experience. If you're ready to take on this challenge, we would love to hear from you!
