The job

Challengermode is a design-driven company that puts user experience and visual design front and center, making this role a crucial contributor to the overall product development process. The role itself is cross-functional at heart as you'll inhabit the space between pure frontend development and user interface design.

As a UI Developer at Challengermode, you'll be joining a cross-functional team of engineers, designers, and product managers. Working in the product team you'll take part in the end-to-end process of creating and iterating on new features and products, maintaining what's already being used, and optimizing every step in the process. Moreover, you'll be heavily involved in the overall design and specification process of new projects together with other designers and product managers. In the future, you'll be able to drive and lead your own design projects and feature implementations.

Who you are

Generally speaking, we think that your knowledge of the design process is very good and that you have high attention to detail. Most important is that you're passionate about excellence - just like us!

What you will do

• Become the bridge between high-fidelity designs to polished and released frontend code
• Implement pixel-perfect UI and components for the modern web
• Work in full-stack software development teams to deliver new features as a frontend specialist
• Develop and maintain the Challengermode design system together with other designers and developers

You should have

• At least 2+ years experience in tech-driven product design
• Good prototyping skills (code and/or design tool)
• Very good Frontend/UI dev skills (HTML, CSS, React e.g)
• An eye for producing elegant web/app designs
• Cross-platform code for typical everyday devices
• Ability to architect efficient and reusable front-end components and abstractions
• Excellent communication skills in both written and spoken English

These qualifications will help you stand out

• Experience creating and designing animations and illustrations
• Awareness of cross-browser compatibility issues and client-side performance considerations
• Experience with user research and UX design, and an ability to make actionable design decisions based on user/product data
• Experience with Sketch, InVision, Framer, or other product design platforms
• Experience with Photoshop, Illustrator, or other Adobe software programs

How to apply

To apply, we'd like to see some of your previous work - a portfolio or a link to your personal website, Dribbble, Behance, or similar. Applicants who do not supply a link or PDF with samples of their work can unfortunately not be considered.
