**Hello everyone!**

We are looking for a **UI/UX lead** in a **Muso.ai** product company, completely remote.

Further - more, in the Q&A.

**What are we doing?**

Muso.AI is an AI-enabled music professional platform that helps artists showcase their portfolio, manage their music projects, and track the stream of created songs. Additionally, users can browse through the rich catalog of tracks, albums, artists, and music professionals.

Muso.AI was founded by CEO and Award-Winning Producer and Mix Engineer Jay Baumgardner, Kyran de Keijzer and Aaron Kaufman, in 2017. The company started out of NRG Recording Studios in North Hollywood, to solve the credit issue for our colleagues, friends and customers.

**Why are we doing this? **

Through the years of working at NRG, we've seen friends, family and colleagues miss out on Grammys and career opportunities. Their names were not listed on the credits for albums and thus they could not prove their participation in the track. Even decades into the digital age, outdated systems and antiquated crediting procedures (email chains and pen-and-paper logs among them) continue to prevent musicians, songwriters, producers, and other contributors from properly getting recognized and paid.

We're fixing the industry's music credits problem by verifying the data with creators themselves so they can receive the credits and missing payments they deserve.

**How are we as a company different from others? What challenges do we want to solve?**

We are the leader in innovation in the music credits industry. Where others have created a single tool, we have created a platform where tools in all parts of the ecosystem can work together. The market's eyes are on us as we make our next moves.
We as a product are applauded for our branding and design, which we need to carry forward as we build out other products in our company.
You will both be required to lead our digital design as well as physical design for all product lines now and in the future.
In April, we implemented our own Design System for our existing Mobile and Web products - used by producers, musicians and artists. Now our main challenge is maintaining and refactoring this design system to be used in various verticals, the b2b SaaS vertical in particular. We have several large-scale publishers signed on to do a Proof of Concept which can set the foundation for our b2b business.
Also, as our product grows at the end of the year, we will have another goal - to launch a marketing campaign that will allow us to bring in many new users. Last December around Christmas and New Years, we had an explosion of new users sharing their end-of-year recap of their profile performance. The end of our campaign was like Spotify's Wrapped end of year campaign.

**Who are we looking for:
**
We can match if you have a great technical background in system design and prototyping. It is important if you have experience with big data systems and data visualization. We would also be interested in your experience in gamification.

**Minimum qualifications:
**
Experience with leading a team to design and develop product
Experience communicating with heads of the engineering team for developer handoff
Knowledge of the latest design trends
Knowledge of branding, interaction design, and fundamentals of composition
Knowledge of print and physical design
An additional qualification – an eye for design and branding. A desire to have a minimalist approach where practically and usability is prioritized over aesthetics.

**Extra point: **English: Upper-Intermediate and higher.

**Why was the position opened?**

We are just about to enter a growth phase in the business which means we’re aggressively increasing our headcounts primarily across engineering and engineers and products. And we need to have someone leading our product team that we can build a team around to help scale the team with upcoming investments.

**Team size and structure?**

Development team: Leadership: 3, Engineering: 10, Product: 1, Marketing: 2, Operations: 30.

**Who works in our team?**

Aaron Kaufman - co-founder and CTO
Kyran de Keijzer - co-founder
Jay Baumgardner - co-founder and CEO

**The conditions:**

Is there probation and how long does it last? - 2-3 months.
What is the work schedule? – Is it possible to work remotely? - Vacancy is completely remote.
A number of vacation days, sick days? – Unlimited. We only require your success.
Social package (medical insurance, other)? – We discuss it individually.
