##Introducing Hugo 🚀
Meetings drive everything! They’re where we make decisions, generate customer insights and assign tasks. But meetings are also generally a time-suck, because they’re not connected to the way that we work - our tools aren’t integrated, and it’s hard to loop everyone in!
Hugo changes that with a product that enables meeting collaboration for modern teams — connecting meeting notes with our work apps to make insights shareable and actionable across the business. Today, Hugo powers hundreds of teams with Connected Meeting Notes as we pursue our vision to make meeting notes the next interface for teamwork!
Hugo is a self-serve B2B SaaS product. We differentiate ourselves across two vectors - product and customer experience. To succeed we not only need to provide an incredible product experience, but we also have to remove as much friction as possible for our users to adopt a new set of behaviors and meeting workflows. That all starts with software that is as beautiful as it is functional.
##The tl;dr on who we’re looking for 🥱
We believe in the principle of collapsed skill sets. Every member combines ≥2 disciplines, that allow for them to be creative and differentiated in their approach to solving customer problems.
We’re looking for a UX Designer who also thinks and acts like a Product Manager. You’re curious and interested in industry trends, you’re constantly hungry for customer insights (data + conversations) and you then combine that with your ability to design new features and improve existing ones!
You will have a very close relationship with our CEO, Josh, who currently runs the product, engineering and customer support process.
##Responsibilities 👩💻
- Identify opportunities for new features and ways to improve existing ones (autonomously through your own initiative and collaboratively through learnings generated with the team)
- Full-stack product design
- Articulate product opportunities
- Design and test solutions with the team and our users
- Iterate based on team/user feedback
- Communicate final requirements to the product and engineering team
- Ensure new features tie in with both customer needs and company strategy
##Required background/skills 🤓
- 4+ years of experience as a UX/Product designer
- Some/all of your experience in the B2B/SaaS space
- Experience using prototyping as a way to communicate design solutions
- Great written and verbal English communication skills
- Solid experience with contemporary digital design tools, such as Sketch, Figma or similar
- Your skillset is more oriented towards interaction design and IA
- Ability to take direct feedback from teammates and users
- Ability to provide direct, but productive feedback to teammates
##Bonus/Unicorn skills 🦄
- Experience designing across multiple platforms (Web, iOS, Android)
- Experience designing a product where composing documents is a core part of the experience
- Ability to understand API documentation to form a view on how we can leverage third-party integrations and work around their constraints
- Experience in major front-end languages to test POCs without costing our engineering team
