Your Role

At Lullabot, our designers work very closely, often in agile teams, with strategists, developers, project managers, and our clients to produce beautifully designed digital products and design systems. As a UI Designer, you will be responsible for translating our clients' brands into user interfaces that are accessible, easy to use, and beautiful. You will participate in the early strategy and UX work that lays the foundation for designs that work and lead the design process as it moves from the earlier strategy phase into the visual UI design. You will work with developers to ensure that the designs we create fit the needs and requirements and get implemented in a way that's true to the design intent.

You will report to Lullabot's Chief Creative Officer.

  • Assist in planning the UI design process for client engagements.

Tools

At Lullabot, we care far more about design skills rather than preferred tools. Most designers can learn new tools rather quickly. As we evaluate candidates, we care far more about the quality of the work in your portfolio than the tools you used to produce it. Our team tends to design using Figma but will use other tools (E.g., Sketch, Adobe XD) based on client needs and requirements.

Requirements

  • 2+ years experience (Mid-level)

  • 8+ years experience (Senior level)

Starting Salary Range: $70,000-95,000 USD annually, pay will be commensurate with experience. 

About Lullabot

Chances are good that working for Lullabot will be like nothing you've ever done before. Lullabot has been a leader in Drupal web development since our founding in 2006. We’re a distributed company without a central office, and our team is spread out across the U.S., Canada, South America, and Europe. We are masters of communication and our tightly-knit team works very closely despite geographical separation. In fact, most new employees say they feel more connected to their co-workers at Lullabot than they ever did at a conventional co-located company.

Lullabot is a 100% employee-owned ESOP, and the majority of our team are full-time employee-owners. We provide a great benefits package including health, vision, dental, and life insurance; a retirement plan; a generous tech stipend for employees to purchase computers, cell phones, or other work-related expenses; and an annual professional development budget. We offer new employees 15 paid-days-off per year, 20 paid-days-off per year after your two-year anniversary, and 25 paid-days-off after your seven-year anniversary. In addition, we offer a four-week paid Sabbatical once an employee hits 10 years with Lullabot. (Plus holidays!) And did we mention there's no commute? Your time is flexible as well, so if you need to take a break to pick the kids up from school, it's not a problem.

We have flexible hours, but we tend to schedule meetings during the North American workday and expect employees to be online and available during most of this time. Self-direction, an approachable and confident attitude, and a focus on quality over quantity are some of the things we look for. We work from both the head and the heart and guide our decisions by our Core Values.
