Wanted: Visual Designer proficient in Vector Interfaces

Published 1 year, 3 months ago by Rob Abbott

Interested in having your designs showcased on one of the most revolutionary products to hit the web?

Are you as talented as you say you are?

Would you like to prove it?

If you would, then read the requirements below and call me.

Requirements:

  • I am looking for a highly talented, experienced, and enthusiastic designer to join me on visual design for our products.
  • You’ll need a passion for visual design and a vast understanding of design for rich application interfaces built in Adobe Flash and Flex.
  • You must have strong design aesthetic and expertise in a vector based design environment.
  • You must have experience leveraging brand guidelines to build a baseline around your designs and in our case, extending the brand to help create design guidelines for our products.
  • You’ll need to be an excellent problem solver and be able to communicate your design direction affectively.
  • The short list of applications I expect you to be proficient in are - Illustrator, Fireworks, Flash (Adobe CS3 products are used internally) and familiarity with designing for Flex Applications is a major plus.
  • I do expect to see a portfolio demonstrating your design experience and skills. It’s important for me to see you proudly present design achievements and decisions.
  • If you do not like seeing your designs in media headlines, do not bother inquiring.
  • This is a part-time consulting position (starting @ $80/hour).
  • You may telecommute from within the Bay Area (San Francisco, Silicon Valley), but I will need to meet with you face-to-face on a sporadic basis (once a week or every two weeks).

Our company is in stealth mode, which means I cannot disclose the details of the work until you sign our standard NDA.

No recruiters please, I have my own.

Design firms are ok.
