DesignAxiom has recently joined with US-based startup, Hundredwatt Labs, to create a powerful rich media publishing platform. Our Toronto-based team is expanding and we’re currently looking for an Interaction/User Interface Designer to join our team.
Job Description
Working in collaboration with the Product Manager, the Creative Director and the Development Manager, you will be responsible for creating detailed user interaction specifications, screen designs, and digital collateral for use by the development team.
The position will entail a fair bit of pure interaction analysis and design but it will also have plenty of opportunity for creativity. Experience with Flash and the capabilities and limitations of the Flash player would be a definite asset.
This position would be an excellent opportunity for an intermediate level or ambitious junior level interactive designer to take a significant role in a landmark interactive project. You will have a key role in enhancing the usability and usefulness of our product.
Required Qualifications
- Degree, diploma, or certificate in Graphic Design, Visual Arts and Design, Interactive/Multimedia design, Industrial Design, or Visual Communication.
- Digital portfolio demonstrating your accomplishments specifically in the design of user interface.
- Knowledge of interaction design techniques or methodologies.
- Excellent written and verbal English communication skills.
Desired Qualifications
- Formal training in Interaction Design or equivalent experience.
- Experience working in a software development environment with business, technical, and product management stakeholders.
- Expert in graphic design and/or animation using Photoshop and Flash.
- Experience developing Flash-based web sites or applications.
The environment is fast-paced and demanding but you will be working with an enthusiastic, friendly, and supportive team who really love what they do.
