Head of UX

(this position is 100% remote in any region of the US but our team members are in Boulder and LA)

Job Summary:

We are looking for an an experienced UX designer who is ready to own the complete product experience of our high scale community platform. This person should naturally want to talk to as many customers as possible, use every tool at their disposal to understand how the site is being used, and love mocking up workflows as much as they love designing. We are looking for someone who has worked with platforms, marketplaces, communities or other products that are about user interaction. This role will work with the head of product to develop the roadmap in a way that UX remains central and coherent as the sites functionality grows.

Job Notes:

Influence.co is a 100% remote work company. All employees at influence.co work from home or from a co-working space. We have learned that working remotely is not a situation that everyone actually enjoys or, frankly, is good at despite their best intentions. It takes incredible discipline, self-structure, communication skills and a remote work environment that is conducive to startup level work hours. We will heavily favor candidates who have demonstrated remote work experience in the past.

In Plain English:

We are looking for a UX person who is a balance of artist, data scientist, designer and conversationalist. We'd love someone who simultaneously maintains visions for the platform a year out, a quarter out, a month out and in the next release. There is no need to be an expert in influencer marketing but a sense of how communities interact is critical. The right candidate is someone who delights in the fact that what we produce feels well designed but also the data says it works well. We want someone who understands the competing demands of a quickly growing platform and doesn't get prickly if the whole team gives feedback that a design concept just doesn't work. We're a very fluid and low-ego team. Please apply if that's the kind of environment you like to work in.

Job Responsibilities:

• Build a vision for the user experience on our platform
• Develop and evolve workflows for primary feature uses
• Analyze existing customer interactions (heatmaps, Fullstory, etc…)
• Talk to customers about existing use cases
• Develop wireframes and/or pixel perfect mocks
• Get customer feedback on designs where possible
• Work with the development team to implement designs

Job Skills and Qualifications:

• Demonstrated remote work experience
• 3+ years owning the user experience of a sophisticated web application
• Knowledge of user activity tools (e.g. Fullstory)
• Knowledge of analytics tools (e.g. GA)
• Mobile app UX design a plus but not required
• Your portfolio of live sites with be your primary job qualification
