As a UX Designer at Matillion, you will support the successful delivery of innovative SaaS data products by producing best-in-class user experiences — from research and ideation through to both UX and UI.

Working in an agile, co-creative environment, learning from other Designers, POs, PM’s, PMM’s and Engineers, you’ll play a key part in bringing new products and features to market — ensuring the customer is at the heart of everything we do.

You’ll contribute to the progression and maintenance of UX/UI standards, guidelines and systems, creating a foundation for consistent innovation as our team scales into the future.

    • Incorporate feedback from internal / external users as part of an iterative design process

Product Innovation

    • Perform heuristic analysis of competitor products
    • Visualise and communicate UX concepts, journeys and flows
    • Create sketches, wireframes, prototypes and other interaction design deliverables
    • Create visually stunning interfaces, adhering to brand guidelines to create consistent, memorable experiences

User Experience Maturity

    • Nurture and maintain a progressive design system and culture
    • Represent UX Design in agile / scrum cadences
    • Collaboratively solicit and provide design feedback to improve the quality of all UX Design output
    • Dedicate time to your own professional development, supported by internal / external opportunities and relationships

What we are looking for

    • 3+ years end-to-end product (UX-UI) design experience (or you’re really good)
    • Experience designing software products
    • Experience in user research techniques, persona creation / JTBD framework
    • Proven skills in ideation, sketching, wireframing, workshops, user flows, storytelling techniques, information architecture and visual design
    • Fluency with modern visual design and prototyping tools such as Figma, Sketch, InVision etc.
    • Experience contributing to / maintaining design systems
    • Visually literate with a keen design aesthetic
    • Understanding of HTML, CSS, JavaScript and their limitations (no we don’t want you to code!)

You must be able to demonstrate

    • Experience in agile environments and collaboration with engineers
    • Design Thinking
    • Iterative product design and adaptability
    • Design Systems experience, or at the least appreciation
    • Design industry trends

Personal capabilities

    • Highly collaborative and proactive nature
    • Appetite for working in an environment of continuous learning while being accountable for your own workload, prioritisation and delivery
    • Comfortable learning new technology concepts
    • Passionate about transforming complex problems into intuitive user experiences

    • Great time management and ability to balance multiple initiatives effectively
