Job description
VIP is seeking a UI/UX Designer to join our growing design team in Colchester, VT. This Hybrid WFH role will directly contribute to our enterprise, B2B web application user interface & experience needs. A keen eye for design is a must, as well as experience with graphic design software. This role will help promote design culture within VIP and communicate their designs effectively with stakeholders, developers, and designers.
The UI/UX Designer will need to be flexible and accommodating as we establish new capabilities at VIP. We are a long standing company, but only recently are incorporating formal UI/UX design in our processes. Exploration and experimentation is still needed to determine how designers will best fit into existing development teams. A strong understanding of foundational interaction design principles is a must, especially for multi-channel experiences. Our designers will need to be fluent in mobile and desktop design standards.
The VIP design team also works on documenting and evolving VIP’s general visual presentation. As a UI/UX designer, you’ll also contribute to our design documentation for our design systems and our brand standards. Strong writing skills are very helpful.
As a member of the UI/UX Design team, your initial responsibilities may include:
- Applying and growing our Design System for VIP web & mobile applications with mockups and/or prototypes
- Working with various Product Owners to assist with new feature design
- Identifying opportunities to enrich and optimize current development processes with design services
- Performing heuristic evaluations of VIP’s current applications
- Conducting basic usability tests and/or user research to promote data-driven design decisions within development teams
- Creating illustrations or graphics to support marketing efforts
- Coordinating tasks for your fellow designers and outside Product Owners and Engineering Managers
The ideal candidate will have these skills and experience:
- BA in Graphic Design, Visual Design, Web Design, Human-Computer Interaction, or other comparable field of study
- 3+ years of professional experience
- Proficiency with Figma, Sketch and/or InVision
- Proficiency with Adobe Creative Cloud (specifically Illustrator, InDesign, and Photoshop)
- A positive attitude and team player
Bonus points for:
- Experience with user research tools like Dovetail or Lookback
- Knowledge of Apple Human Interface Guidelines
- Knowledge of Material Design System
- A desire to become a team lead and eventually mentor less experienced teammates
- Working knowledge of HTML & CSS, plus various web UI frameworks including Angular, Kendo and ExtJS (don’t worry, you aren’t expected to code anything, but this knowledge will help you communicate better with our development teams)
We look for people who are curious, inventive, and work to be a little better every single day. If this sounds like a good fit for you, please send us a nice hello, plus links to your work and experience!
All full time job offers are contingent upon passing a pre-employment drug screening and background check.
