YOUR ROLE

Interaction Designers are responsible for designing the behavior of interactive products, from overarching interaction models down to detailed micro-interactions. Interaction Designers create the core scaffolding and guidelines (architecture, user flows, navigation models, etc) that shape how people interact with products, and collaborate closely with Visual Designers and Design Technologists to bring these to life in the final product.

As an Interaction Designer II, you will sometimes be the only interaction design specialist on a program. You are expected to plan, prioritize, and deliver interaction design activities autonomously, in the context of interdisciplinary projects. You will lead client conversations within your domain, providing articulate recommendations and helping guide client choices.

In this role you will play a key role in:

·       Bridge the gap between research insights and tangible concepts

·       Make sense of complex systems or large volumes of data and content and represent them in simplified models

·       Refine concepts into meaningful narratives that speak to business opportunities, technical feasibility and organisation set up

·       Identify the right interaction patterns to apply in each context

·       Collaborate fluidly with visual designers and developers

YOUR PROFILE

You should have experience and a proven ability to think commercially, strategically, and creatively. 

Our ideal candidate has the following characteristics: 

·       4+ years of professional interaction design experience (although you might have had a different job title, like “UX designer” or “product designer”)

·     Highly developed design skills, demonstrated in your portfolio of recent work

·     Confident presentation and storytelling abilities

·     Experience collaborating in multifunctional teams

·     Proficiency with contemporary design and prototyping tools and methods

Preferred:  A university degree in Graphic Design, Visual Communications, or a related design or artistic discipline
