ABOUT THE OPPORTUNITY

Do you see B2B apps as the new frontier for UX design? We have a data-intensive, diverse and challenging system which has grown organically for a number of years. As a designer, you'll know this problem all too well. We need you to join our product team to help shape the future vision of the Freewheel experience and to set the bar for other systems to aspire to

Our founders left executive positions with the world’s leading technology companies to build a media operations platform that’s transforming and unifying the premium video market. We are a fast growing business and there are many opportunities to develop and grow your career while working at FreeWheel.

Following a successful acquisition of a new client we are looking for a UX designer to join our growing team.

RESPONSIBILITIES

-Unifying the experience across the application to bring a sense of both consistency and understanding

-Coralling our giant data sets into meaningful, useful and easy-to-understand formats for our relieved and appreciative users

-Assembling the building blocks of the entire application into a re-usable and referenceable library for our product and engineering teams to use to implement their ideas

-Fine-tuning the micro interactions of our excel-like grid technology (React-data-grid)

ABOUT YOU

Our people are the most important part of our business. We are fundamentally looking for forward-thinking, enthusiastic problem solvers. People who love a challenge, constantly evaluate and question, and above all, love to ship a product that solves real problems. While these characteristics outweigh any specific technical skills, you should be able to demonstrate some of the below:

-Demonstrate experience and skill in designing data-rich internet applications.

-You think the best way to prove an idea is to build it quickly, get feedback, then iterate, iterate, iterate.

-You're the kind of person who won't stand for user experience being the first thing to drop from a sprint when deadlines are tight

-Comfortable taking on a major project, whilst also contributing to the day-to-day efforts in the product team.

NICE TO HAVES

-Media / ad-tech industry experience is a strong bonus, but we're looking for skills and experience over knowledge

-Being a technical person might help with some coding ability (HTML, CSS, JavaScript, etc), particularly with prototyping, but isn't required.
