Automattic, the tech powerhouse behind WordPress.com, Jetpack, Tumblr, WooCommerce, Simplenote, and more, is looking for seasoned Product Designers to help us keep the web free and open.
About the role:
Design is at the core of what we do: designing experiences for millions of users who actively use WordPress, WooCommerce, Tumblr, and all of the products within our ecosystem. You can visit our Design Blog, to learn more about our team and read articles on design, software, and user experience.
We’re on the lookout for talented designers who are passionate about world-class user experience, deeply understand the needs of our users, and are interested in working with a diverse and global team. You will also be working closely with engineers, marketers, and customer support specialists from around the world in a fully remote company to create websites and themes that make online publishing and commerce accessible to everyone.
What you’ll do:
Design exceptional WordPress websites and themes for multiple clients, events, and Automattic products.
Iterate actively on designs at all levels of fidelity, from wireframes to mockups to site builds, informed by project scope, client strategy, and business goals.
Communicate and share often in written, verbal, and visual forms (including client calls) to create alignment and move the work toward implementation.
Collaborate regularly with engineers to QA and launch high-quality experiences.
Contribute to both Automattic products (via feedback) and the larger open-source and design communities.
What we’re looking for:
Deep understanding of modern website design and theming considerations. Knowledge of WordPress block themes and Gutenberg is a huge bonus.
Past work experience that is relevant for Automattic: remote work, WordPress, e-commerce, site editors, etc.
A keenness for identifying user needs, defining clear solutions, and delivering those through detailed design.
The flexibility to design in low and high fidelity and choose the most efficient and responsible process for the job at hand.
The ability to integrate feedback, validate, and iterate on designs while being mindful of our customers, contributors, and insights gleaned by our support teams.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills—you’ll collaborate with others and present your work regularly in a written format.
Proficiency in design and prototyping tools (we use Figma) and familiarity with website development cycles.
Strong UI and visual design skills with a portfolio showcasing your craft in both written and visual form.
Familiarity with remote work (or excitement to try it!)
Salary range: $95,000-$200,000 USD - Please note that salary ranges are global, regardless of location, and we pay in local currency. #LI-PJ
We are searching for high-caliber candidates with the skills and qualities to have a net positive for Automattic. Pay will reflect the potential contribution and the impact you can bring, which may, in some cases, go beyond the range stated.
We’re pleased to offer a straightforward, competitive base salary, providing financial clarity without complex variable components. This isn’t your typical work-from-home job: we are a fully-remote company with an open vacation policy. To see a full list of benefits by country, consult our Benefits Page.
