Visual Designer

About the Role
Someone who believes that good design has a role in the solution to every problem. You know that design is not just how things look and feel, but also how every process evolves. Even mundane processes from daily life can be made easier with design. You love products and have great creative skills. You want to own and be responsible for designing and driving products to completion. You religiously follow Buxton’s rule of producing at least 3 alternatives for every design decision. You respect the grid and hate all the half-pixel-aligned icons.
