Product Designer

  • Full-time

Company Description

Since being founded in 2010, SinglePlatform has been helping local businesses get new customers by enabling them to publish their most important information everywhere consumers are making decisions online. Tens of thousands of businesses rely on SinglePlatform everyday to showcase and update their menus, products, and services on the web's most popular sites and apps, all from one place.

After being named one of the most promising startups in America by Bloomberg Business Week, SinglePlatform was acquired and joined the Constant Contact family in June 2012, and was named #22 on Crain’s Best Places to Work list in 2013.

Job Description

Do you put the “art” in “smart?” Do you think design is the highest form of communication?

SinglePlatform, a fast-growing part of the Constant Contact family, is looking for a Product Designer to join our small but mighty creative team. In this role you’ll contribute original and dynamic designs for a range of purposes – from our corporate site to our core product, from landing pages to branding materials and email campaigns.  

At SinglePlatform, we’re helping small businesses get discovered by allowing them to reach customers everywhere across the online universe. This means that the mom and pop coffee shop on the corner can have the same reach as the big guys from Seattle. And you can be a part of making that happen.


What you’ll do:

• Provide innovative, efficient, and consistent design solutions to business problems

• Have a solid process in place – know how to star with user flows, sketches and wires, and iterate & improve your designs over multiple sprints   

• Collaborate with different members of the team (PMs, developers, engineers) and effectively communicate & pass on your designs 

• Manage multiple projects in a single sprint to support various agile teams

• Independently gather requirements and meet project deadlines 

• Participate in brainstorm sessions and internal presentations, as well as all sprint related ceremonies

• Conduct user testing and research as needed/when possible 

• Address all day to day and/or urgent matters in a timely fashion 

• Support the needs of the marketing team with a small number of recurring projects (roughly 25% of your bandwidth)

• Understand the existing brand standards and ensure that all product development adheres to guidelines

• Stay current with design/industry trends and advances in technology and be open to making recommendations as you see fit

Qualifications

What you know:

• Enough to have earned a Bachelor’s degree in Graphic / Product Design 

• The stuff that comes with at least 2-3 years of design experience in designing for the web, products & applications, and marketing materials

• How to present ideas as well as create them

• Photoshop, Illustrator, and other tools that make your work come to life (Sketch is a plus)

• How to put together an exceptional on-line portfolio showcasing innovative concepts and creative design solutions (that’s probably what will get you an interview)


Why you care:

We combine a high-energy, fast-paced start-up culture with the stability of being a part of the Constant Contact family. Simply put, this means that you’ll get to be a part of the story of building the SinglePlatform business to legendary proportions but you still have the security of being backed by a publicly traded company who has already created a legacy of its own.
