About You
You are passionate about exceptionally designed, functional software. As a Sr. User Experience Designer, you are a generalist design leader comfortable collaborating with user experience designers, product managers, developers, and stakeholders. You understand the importance of business objectives and are keen to understand your users through research so that you can craft an experience that will successfully solve problems and impact the business.
You are proficient in design tools like: InVision, Sketch, and wireframing/prototyping apps (Axure, Balsamiq, Proto.io, etc.) and have solid experience with Sketch. You have experience with Forms. You also have experience with Figma than it is a big plus.
You can think big picture and create user flows, can craft personas representing the different types of users, but really go deep on optimizing behavior in a single screen.
You are thoughtful in your approach and can walk us through designs and explain where you changed your own mind or someone else’s in the process. You are open to collaboration and love finding the great idea that hides behind the good ones. You can easily zoom out and in as necessary.
You understand principles of user interface design to know when to use radio buttons instead of checkboxes. You understand how to critique your colleagues’ work and also how to apply their critique to improve your own work. You want to be part of a vibrant CX team who aims to bring state of the art experience design to our client organizations.
You are comfortable running workshops with stakeholders – in real life and ideally online as well. You would be comfortable sitting down with stakeholders who have a vague idea what they want and guiding them through a process to make a detailed prototype that engineers could run with. You can design user research and are adept and finding patterns and expressing that into clear deliverables and ideally into a working application.
You can work 100% timezone-aligned with Central European Time (Berlin, Paris). Overlap with your team is critical when working in a global remote team. Modus requires all team members to overlap with EST morning hours daily. In addition, reliable high speed internet is a must.
