Lead Interaction Designer

We're looking for a Lead Interaction Designer to join our brand new (but well-funded) startup based in downtown San Francisco. We're kind of secretive about what we're doing, so let's talk about that when we meet up (but we think it's pretty cool).

We need you to come help with making this thing both easy and thoroughly fun and enjoyable to use. There's a visual design team (in-house and agency) in place, so you can be responsible for one aspect but of course influence the other.

Responsibilities:

- Define user journeys and think up great content, interactions and patterns
- Testing the product
- Work with product and tech people to wrestle the technology into doing what you want it to
- Be a strong and consistent voice of clarity and simplicity in design and messaging
- Find/hire/manage designers

Skills:

- Well-argued and opinionated designer
- A good writer (writing is designing, as they say)
- Conscientious and detail-oriented
- Comfortable with managing and prioritizing own and other's time

Experience:

- 3-5 years of experience in a Lead Designer role
- Great documentation and wireframe skills
- People management experience preferred
- A great portfolio.

Please email us at jobs@aninternetstartup.com with the subject 'Lead Interaction Designer', and include your CV as well as a PDF of or link to your portfolio. Thanks.
