About you
In this role you will work closely with the other UX specialist, the product owner and our front-end developers. Because this is a role in which you develop several assignments at the same time, it is important that you can keep a good overview and work independently. Furthermore, we are looking for someone who has experience with managing our design system. And finally, you will succeed in this role if you have experience with designing complex features for B2B software.
We mainly work with the Agile/Kanban methodology. You have to deal with a variety of tools such as Sketch, the Adobe package and InVision. You always consider the needs of our users, but do not lose sight of the business goals. Your focus is on ease of use. You will conduct thorough research, and create your solutions for complex customer problems. In addition to making wireframes and prototypes, you also create the visuals. You always test the developed features on their usability and the design principles. In addition, you validate your designs with colleagues and clients. Finally, we find it important that you are willing to set and validate requirements during the process.
Together with the team you make the translation from strategy to a creative concept and then translate the creative concept into an attractive and user-friendly feature. During the realization you will monitor and where necessary revise the choices made.
