Senior Product Designer (UI/UX)

Fracture's Creative team is looking for a Senior Product Designer (UI/UX). 

This person is an expert with UI design tools; Sketch or Figma doesn’t matter - you’ve used both. Your designs are simple, intuitive solutions built around a “show, don’t tell” mindset. Data doesn’t scare you; in fact, you know that quality data is how you iterate for maximum effectiveness and prove the ROI of your solutions to the business. You seek attunement with those that will engage with your designs; calling them “users” feels too impersonal; to you, they’re friends, family, people you know well. With friends you have a deep understanding of what they love and what really frustrates them. You admire how Robinhood’s UI took something as complex as the stock market and trading and made it not just simple but intuitive for beginners. Whether you’re handing off designs to engineers, finalizing requirements with stakeholders, or mentoring junior designers you’re comfortable talking about your craft and are able to clearly justify design decisions to a group.

Looking for a place to create beautifully engaging digital product designs for millions of people? We’re Fracture and we’d like to chat with you.
