Remote

Introduction

84codes is looking for a UX/Front-End designer ready to take ownership for our design workflow. Your first task will be to give our consumer-facing web interface an improved look. This includes structuring our design development process as well as improving the user experience.

You will work closely with our engineering team to provide advice and coherent design components whenever new features are implemented.

Who you Are

We are looking for an analytical, creative person with a friendly attitude and quick learning skills. You should take interest in the company, helping us ensure the quality of the user experience over time.

Ideally, you live and breathe design and have a great eye for detail. At the same time, you should be comfortable turning your ideas into code. This requires you to have a technical background with proficiency in HTML/CSS, and JavaScript. Previous experience with design systems and component libraries is a big plus.

What you’ll do

Your role will include some of the following tasks:

  • Redesign our consumer-facing control panel to improve the user experience
  • Implement the new design and provide a design workflow that will guide the rest of the team
  • Ensure the quality of the user experience over time
  • Ensure that the design of the product is easy to use, efficient and meets the needs of our customers
  • Work closely with the engineers to make sure the design is technically feasible
  • Gather requirements from customer requests, in collaboration with sales and marketing
  • Provide recommendations for improving our services based on user feedback

This is a position with endless opportunities for growth. We encourage all employees to shape their own roles and highly believe in intrapreneurship. Therefore, you will have the autonomy to decide how your own role and tasks develop over time.
