Designer Job
ZURB is looking for designer with coding chops and a passion for design to work with our interaction design & design strategy team.
We’re a close-knit team that helps companies design better websites, services, and products online. We’ve been around since 1998 and have over 100 start-ups in our client roster. Our clients range from large, well-known companies (e.g., Photobucket, Zazzle, Facebook, Yahoo, the New York Stock Exchange) to brand-new start-ups just finding their feet (Qik, TinyPic). They all came to us based on our reputation of delivering killer ideas that work.
As part of our goal in being the world’s best interaction design & strategy company for start-ups & teams who want to get stuff done, we’re developing a suite of applications created to help people design for people. You can check out our flagship product Notable (notableapp.com) and sign up to get into the private release of our second product Verify (verifyapp.com).
We're a close-knit team of T-shaped people who love what we do. And we're good at solving problems, designing interfaces, structuring code and writing—but we know it's not enough to build great products, services and websites. It's our culture that makes our work great.
What skills are we looking for?
- User Interface/Experience Design - wire-framing, weighting elements, boxes and arrows, flow, great common sense
- Visual Design Chops - You have to be able to create icons, illustrations and compelling visual design elements
- Words - clear explanations, compelling writing, and the occasional clever or funny email
- Proven Leadership – experience managing projects, deadlines, etc.
- Client Interaction – comfort level presenting your work to clients and working off of feedback
- Front-End Development - XHTML/CSS/Javascript, web standards, frameworks like Prototype.js or MooTools would be cool. Experience integrating with Rails would be great.
We're a creative, fun-loving, hard-working team and if you thrive on the energy (read: chaos) of a start-up environment, you'll like ZURB.
Are You In?
If you'd like to be the next ZURBian to join the team, just shoot us an email to jobs@zurb.com and be sure to include the following:
- A catchy subject line
- Your top 3 skills
- Your best teamwork tactic
- Your URL
- Your resume
- Why you want to work at ZURB
Need a reason?
We pride ourselves on having a strong culture and positive atmosphere. We've got 17 reasons to back that up:
- Food. We stock the cabinets with food. Yeah, most of it's full of sugar, but we try to throw in some healthy snacks. Cup o' noodles is still a weakness for some of us though.
- 401k plan. All you have to do is say how much and we do the rest.
- Health insurance. 100% coverage.
- And eye care. We also take care of those eyes.
- And teeth too. We have dental coverage. Got to impress those clients :)
- Cell phone coverage. Can you hear us now?
- Profit sharing. We're a team of entrepreneurial-thinking workers. It's important to us that everyone see the benefits of their hard work.
- Free dry cleaning. Hate dressing up? We've taken the hard work out of putting on the snazzy dress shirt or blouse.
- Free house cleaning. Yep, we think getting stuff done at home is just as important as getting stuff done in the office.
- A growing library. Need a book? Just put it on the wish list and it will be added to the ZURB library.
- 3 weeks vacation. And all those common holidays too. Work hard, play hard.
- Lunches. Now and then we like to order sushi, and if you're working late we don't mind chipping in for dinner.
- Start-ups. Some people go work for start-ups. At ZURB you get to help start start-ups.
- Challenging work. We believe that everyone has a brain to think—we make you use every last brain cell.
- Flex-time. Hey, things come up now and then. What's dental coverage when you don't have time to get those teeth drilled?
- A great team. It's fun to work on great projects, but it's even better to learn something new from a team member.
- A fun work environment. You see this on other company websites, but we are really committed to making work fun.
