Web UX Designer in Goodwaves

Our mission is to build the world’s best job. We spend our time thinking about how to give a global workforce complete control of their own work life while automating the hundreds of thousands of man hours which would normally be required to manage people on this scale.

We’ll be looking for ways to grow your expertise, and we will provide opportunities for your professional development. Although we’re a remote team, we speak every day, and have regular meetings both in the department and as a company.

We want you to be an integral part of the small clients team. You'll be able to take a leading role in delivering an excellent web experience to our 1,000+ customers and our thousands of users.

You will be in charge of working closely with the dev team in order to craft useful solutions. Over time, your role will evolve to oversee all of our operations for our mobile products.

• A strong standard of spoken and written English
• Enthusiasm for understanding technical ideas and explaining them clearly to other members of the team
• Experience and skills developing web applications with Ruby on Rails
• Experience with MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL or another relational database
• Experience with HTML, CSS, and Javascript
• Experience with using Git or Subversion
• An interest in test-driven development
• Comfortable using macOS as your day-to-day operating system, or happy to learn
• A willingness to provide technical support to the team, and occasionally customers

In order to succeed in this role you should be:

• Experienced. You have designed and implemented entire projects not just individual stories. You have used Ruby on at least one project.
• Curious. You aren't content with the status quo and know that we can always improve.
• Self-directed. You can work on your own while prioritizing tasks.
• Collaborative. You can work with others to improve a solution.
• Empathetic. Your designs are influenced by a deep understanding of the customers' needs.
• A strong communicator. You will proactively communicate issues and trade-offs with team members to support alignment and fast decision making.
