UI Designer/Front-end Developer

Full-time fundible in Cardiff

Details

Location: Cardiff Salary: £21,000 to £24,000

About Us

Fundible (www.fundible.com) is building technology to make collaborative purchases possible. First of all we’re bring crowdfunding to ecommerce. By making unaffordable purchases possible and shared purchases easy for consumers, we increase merchants’ sales, customer acquisition and data insight. Think kickstarter for retailers.

We’re then going to target other markets….. Watch this space.

We’re not an ecommerce platform and we’re not a payment system.

What we’re doing is building a scalable, disruptive solution that can work with merchants to help initiate £100m’s incremental revenue, whilst capturing new forms of consumer data & insight.

We are a pre-launch startup based in Cardiff (just off the A48/M4). You will work side by side the 2 co-founders and there is a management team of experienced professionals and entrepreneurs, who have had several successful exits.

We have been inundated with requests and are currently in the process of rolling out a beta to initial customers. We even made UK Merchants & Payments Conference Innovation Showcase, alongside heavily VC backed startups.

This is a unique opportunity to take a crucial early role in a high-growth tech startup with global potential.

About You

We’re looking for people who want to move ideas quickly from concept to design to production. We want people who like a challenge and want to grow a startup into a global business.

A good understanding of the following is essential:

  • How applications are designed and built
  • Information architecture
  • Typography
  • HTML and CSS
  • Responsive web design
  • Javascript

Responsibilities

  • Can rapidly prototype ideas and concepts to elicit stakeholder feedback.
  • Has a strong understanding of key UI and UX concepts, issues and solutions for mobile platforms.
  • Is comfortable working in a rapid iteration development cycle moving from prototype to production, tuning and changing an application design and interface based on user feedback.
  • Wants to employ cutting-edge design techniques (especially responsive design) to create compelling and beautiful user interfaces.
  • Interest in how human psychology and how users interact with software applications and how best to optimise and improve conversion.
  • Has a strong background in HTML, CSS and JavaScript.
  • Has a deep understanding of web usability standards, accessibility guidelines, cross-browser development.
  • Works with developers to establish the user interface and minimise trade-offs between usability and technical limitations.
  • Uses pre-processing languages like LESS and jade / handlebars to rapidly iterate designs.
  • Is a proactive verbal, visual and written communicator, and possesses the ability to interact with a diverse group of stakeholders - executives, subject matter experts and software engineers.
  • Finally, the right attitude. It’s going to be a dumpy ride and you will face a lot of challenges so you’ll have to be happy to roll your sleeves up and learn.
