UX Designer

Job Overview

UX DESIGNER

As a designer at rasbor, you will operate at the intersection of art and technology. Designers and developers work together closely, with a respect and understanding of each other’s skills. We are looking for someone that is excited to collaborate!

MUST HAVE

• A highly collaborative approach, both with other designers and with developers.
• A strong online portfolio.
• Good time management skills.
• Ability to work from wireframes.
• You’re equally comfortable discussing color theory, user psychology, or the semantic implications of the DIV tag; you’re a writer of excellent HTML & CSS.
• Experience owning a product creatively and seeing it through to the end (and beyond).

ROLE

• Create usable, beautiful visual designs for web and mobile applications.
• Work with the senior designer and the product team to iterate on designs.
• Come up with new ways to enhance the user experience across all platforms.
• Collaborate with content strategy and interaction design to create whole experiences.
• Tackle complex product problems and solve them creatively.
• Encourage other designers and help them grow in their careers.

IT’S COOL IF YOU HAVE

• Simplicity: Good design is invisible.
• Collaboration: You’ll be working alongside developers and senior designers to create elegant user experiences; you should thrive on feedback, critique and iteration.
• Visual Design: Adobe Creative Suite – whatever works for you. Your process is your own; you get to decide which tools you use.
• HTML/CSS: You’ll be given full ownership of your ideas, and so you’ll be required to both create beautiful mockups/wireframes/prototypes – and implement them.
• Javascript is a plus.

KEY RESPOSIBILITIES

• Working with clients to discuss the images they require and how they want to use them.
• Working in different locations and in different circumstances to get the right image.

• Arranging still life objects, products, scenes, props and backgrounds.
• Liaising with other professionals, including graphic designers, writers, gallery managers, picture researchers, commissioning editors and art directors.
• Managing the processing and use of images, discussing technical problems, checking for quality and dealing with clients’ concerns.
• Preparing proofs for approval.
• Compiling finished products for sale, including albums and framed prints, for example.
• Understanding traditional film and digital photography and keeping up to date with industry trends, developments and new techniques.
• Developing expertise with software to digitally enhance images by, for example, changing emphasis, cropping pictures, correcting minor faults, or moving objects around.

DESIRABLE SKILLS

• Knowledge of photographic technology, equipment and techniques including editing and archiving.
