The ideal candidate is a brilliant problem solver, quick study, self starter and excellent communicator who possesses a passion for great user experience and the ability to achieve it. 

Responsibilities: 

•  First and foremost, you should have an excellent eye for design. You should know great web UI when you see it, and be able to explain why it's great (even if you didn't create it!).

•  You should have at least a working knowledge of XHTML/CSS. If you can cutup your own comps, so much the better.

•  Design clean, fresh and current user interfaces regardless of device (mobile/desktop/tablet/etc.). 
•  The ability to quickly grasp and distill highly complex user design issues into clean, understandable solutions. 
•  Be able to speak the language of back-end engineers, internal business clients and our customers. 
•  Assist with user research and data collection as needed (user testing, site heat maps, site metrics via Omniture, Google Analytics, etc.) to guide design and performance improvements. 
•  You flourish in a fast paced, iterative, deadline driven environment, and know your way around project management, including juggling multiple parts of a project and keeping up to date with all the moving parts. 
•  Strong communication and organizational skills are critical to success among this company of talented individuals.
