| Description |
We're looking for an exceptionally talented, versatile designer with 3-5 years' experience at a major website to join our design team.
What exactly are we looking for?
Someone who:
Consistently beats deadlines - with excellent work
Has experience creating elegant solutions to design problems within existing style and brand guidelines
Can discuss a project with anybody in the company, from the engineering team to the marketing team to the CEO
Understands HTML and CSS extremely well and prefers to code by hand
Has expert-level skills in Photoshop, Illustrator and Flash
Also has experience working with Visio, PowerPoint and PageMaker or InDesign (we are definitely looking for someone who can work effectively in these applications at a good pace, but total mastery of them isn't necessary)
Follows best practices in user-centered design (and stays educated about new developments in this field)
Is looking to be a strong individual contributor on a great team - to be up-front, this isn't a management position
Has a BA degree
Things that aren't required, but would be a plus:
Knowledge of XSL
Experience working within the CVS source-control system
Experience working on a travel-related website
Responsibilities
You'll create design solutions for a wide variety of online projects - site updates, new features, advertisements, cobrands, etc. There may be occasional work on print or promotional materials but the major focus of the job is web design. Working from specs created by the Content, Marketing and Sales teams, you'll be involved in a variety of stages of project development, from initial wireframes to PhotoShop mockups to finished HTML design. You'll also use Flash to create banner ads.
