Join Our Team TrendKite helps PR professionals and agencies build a timely, highly accurate picture of their brands' media coverage with ease. We are using the latest technologies to transform how companies like Snapchat, Zendesk, Pinterest, and Trulia measure the impact of earned media. We are a venture backed, high traction startup that is disrupting a huge existing market. We are looking for a Product Designer to join our growing product team. In this role you'll be in charge of driving all things design at TrendKite. The ideal candidate will have experience designing SaaS products in every phase of the product lifecycle - from translation of story boards to wire framing sketches to developing low fidelity mockups to building prototypes to developing pixel perfect comprehensive design. About You You are a craftsman and an apprentice at the same time. You have a solid understanding and experience in visual design, information architecture, interaction design, usability and accessibility. You think from a user centric view every time. You are not afraid to challenge the norm, create multiple problem-solution scenarios, approach design as an iterative process and think strategically, yet execute blazing fast in the present. You understand what it takes to work in a fast paced startup in a collaborative environment. You know how design works in an agile software development process. You can work with engineers, product managers, marketers and executives from concept to production. You have empathy for users, fluency in design and humility as a guiding force to get work done. You are a tinkerer, a maker and learning is one of your top 5 strengths. Design is your passion and not your 9-5 job. You have a natural appreciation for the aesthetic beauty around you. You see beauty in bezier curves, polyhedrons, and fractals. You understand behavioral psychology, the power of habits, and how users get hooked to products. You know Apple's New Product Process (ANPP) but you are constantly thinking how to apply the spirit of it in a fast paced startup which doesn't have the luxury of time or brand recognition (yet). You have interests outside of product design that keep your curiosity in high drive. The Opportunity You have an incredible opportunity to make a massive impact on organizations ranging from Fortune 100's to small non-profits. You will be designing a beautiful, habit forming product that PR professionals from the world's best companies will be interacting with on a daily basis to measure and magnify the impact of their PR. CEO's from the world's most impactful companies will be touching, tapping and clicking the icons, the buttons, and the interactions you create. You'll be able to set the design direction, potentially build out the design group and bring innovative ideas to action in a multi device environment. It's never been a better time to be a designer, work at a startup, and work with people that care deeply about design - at TrendKite you get all three at the same time!
