commercetools is hiringUX/UI Designer

commercetools - we are:

• The competitive sort: We didn’t become the fastest growing, highest ever valued SaaS software company in digital commerce with nearly 100% year-over-year growth by sitting on the sidelines.
• Inspired: Continually exploring what’s possible — the innovators of headless commerce, the visionaries behind MACH — our patented tech has radically disrupted the world of enterprise ecommerce software - and we are just getting started. 
• Valued: Smart, strong, passionate individuals hailing from over 50 countries across the globe, speaking over 43 languages, and collectively embracing diversity, encouraging inclusion, and fostering a culture of caring.
• Driven: We push the limits, technology, and ourselves to retain the trust of some of the world’s leading and fastest growing brands every single day.

This Opportunity:

We are looking for a new team member able to own and drive the entire design process autonomously: from research to visual interface design. We are looking for candidates who are eager to learn, are thoughtful and collaborative in their approach to problem solving, are great communicators, are open-minded, and understand that research, feedback, and iteration drive the entire design process. Experience in user-centered UX, UI, or Product design is ideal. 

We’re looking for a UX/UI Designer that defines how we represent commercetools’ product documentation and also works with our e-learning team to create our e-learning experience with outstanding UX/UI skills.

You want to join (and learn from) a skilled team, collaborating in an open and supportive environment. Sounds good? Send us your application and a link to your latest portfolio or attach samples to showcase your work.

Please note that for this role, we can currently offer full-remote work for candidates based in the European Union and in the United Kingdom.

 

Your Mission:

• Approach design with an expert grasp on best practices, accessibility, and design heuristics, and be able to clearly articulate design decisions.
• Set and oversee standards for templates, layouts, guidelines, and graphics.
• Create new and consistent design patterns when needed.
• Create and maintain our Design System for our e-learning portal and documentation.
• Plan and conduct user research studies (workshops, interviews, surveys or usability testing sessions), defining research objectives and documenting those.
• Help conducting discovery research together with your entire cross-functional team and collect, organize and analyze quantitative and qualitative data.
• Create personas, user flows, wireframes, sketches and/or prototypes to communicate your design proposals with the team.
• Ensure your design deliverables are implemented and displayed correctly before making them available to our users by conducting thorough reviews. 

What you need to succeed:

• Degree in Design, Interactive Media, HCI, any User Experience related studies or any applicable professional experience.
• 3+ years experience applying User Experience design methods and techniques and designing high-end web-based User Interfaces and Design Systems.
• Experience developing standards and style guidelines.
• Strong skills at converting the user needs to visual interfaces, applying our design system and patterns. 
• Proficiency in UI design and prototype tools such as Sketch and Axure.
• Good verbal and written communication skills in English.
• Great team player who's also able to work independently by organizing and prioritizing the workload

Nice-to-have:

• Experience in designing e-learning portals is a big plus.
