redpepper (hey, that’s us!) is looking for a UX Designer / Strategist with a killer portfolio of web projects and the ability to concept and solve problems at a high level. We know you’re busy creating, so we’ll jump right into the nitty gritty…. Our ideal candidate has an obvious love for the overall user experience. You should be able to think at a high level, communicate ideas and rationale to clients, anticipate execution issues that may arise, work well with a team, and place a high value on culture. Yeah, you may have heard: we’re keen on culture.

In this position, you (see what we did there?) will also be able to scope and estimate projects, drive cross-team collaboration, and gather and document requirements to create the best experience and designs possible. Above all else, passion for the latest trends in interactive experiences across a variety of media and a strong desire for innovation should be at your working core.

Tasks and Responsibilities:

Create and maintain screen wireframes, process flows, site maps, screen prototypes and conceptual models to clarify and refine new product solutions

Execute well-informed responsive designs using the mobile-first design methodology

Translate target audience needs and behavioral motivators into compelling user experience recommendations

Conduct task-based user-testing to evaluate design efficiency and recommend revisions to existing designs

Collaborate efficiently with off-site clients and offshore vendors in a cooperative team environment

Expert-level Photoshop skills with an extensive knowledge of the Adobe Creative Suite

High level creative thinking, conceptualization, problem-solving, presentation and implementation skills

Ability to ask appropriate questions and communicate effectively and persuasively to convey solutions both internally and to the client

5+ years digital design and/or creative leadership experience, however, a kick-ass portfolio, personality and work ethic can certainly trump the years

Understanding of technical opportunities and limitations of current web technologies as they pertain to design considerations

Nice to Haves:

Previous experience implementing design system-based solutions

Experience with Enterprise-level Fortune 500 clients

Front-end development skills (HTML/CSS/Sass/jQuery)
