Job posting from: Internet Engineering Jobs

We are on the search for a User Interface Designer or Visual Designer who does not separate visuals or design from interaction or functionality. We are looking for someone who shares the mindset our client does: visual pixel perfection and an idea behind every user interaction, button, color, rollover and function on a page. This is a contract to hire opportunity.

Still reading? Hopefully drooling?

We’d love to talk to you more about our well known client in Oakland, their work/life balance, great location, casual environment and the HD TV they brought in just to watch the World Cup.

In this specific position, you work within our client’s product team so everything goes straight to prototype phase. If you are fan of wireframes and strict process, this probably isn’t the best position for you. However, we are looking for someone who can use brand restrictions to their advantage, loves not having a lot of design direction and thinks about interface design as problem solving for the user. We are not out there looking for the infamous “designer who can code” but you should understand how to slice up a site in CSS, so that what you design is thought of down to the pixel for launch. You will be working on multiple types of web page interface projects in this role

Here are some more concrete qualifications we are targeting:

* 4+ years experience in visual and/or interface design (hopefully in whatever you’ve been doing these aren’t separate roles).

* Pixel perfect design samples (and, yes, we will check).

* Work experience with large scale, highly transactional sites with millions of visitors – retail/ecommerce experience or search products are great.

* Ability to work with very small amounts of design direction and create a phenomenal online product for your user.

* Experience creating user flows and interaction models for interface or visual design.

* Expert-level Photoshop skills and creating optimized assets for use in CSS.

* Excellent communication and presentation skills.

To apply, please visit http://apply.aquent.com/myaquent?PROC=AWUIDrawShortApplication&serverID=1&jobID=52869. You will be asked to fill out a short application when applying.
