Why would this role be challenging?
- We are currently rebuilding our platform, and we need to figure out how much we should be rebuilding from scratch. This is where your research expertise comes in handy. After the research phase, you will set the UI/UX strategy for the entire platform.
- Redesign most of the UI components from scratch, setting out the best practices for each component
- Manage design libraries and design systems with adherence to our brand.
- Our team is small but scaling. So we are in the chaotic growing phase and we need help thinking through some of our design and design thinking processes.
- Identify areas that need alignment or could benefit from knowledge sharing
- Identify design/research related inefficiencies
- Evangelizing the merits of good design and research - champions user needs at all levels and influences stakeholders to consider those needs in their objectives. In other words, we want a thought leader who actively defines and institutes best practices for design, while fostering innovation to address evolving consumer expectations and technological advances.
