Job description

Online interview
Software Mansion’s design team started out as a small group of 3 designers. Since then, this team has grown and developed into becoming a collective of highly-specialized individuals ready to take on any design-related task, whether that’s working hand-in-hand with development teams to deliver projects, or organizing the recurring design meet-up in Kraków called Zabłocie Design Park.

About the position
We would like to enrich the design team with a UX/UI Designer to help our development team deliver well thought out and gorgeous-looking projects. You will join our four-people design team to work closely on:
  • clients projects – you can expect cooperation with clients from various fields like fintech, education, and entertainment to name but a few,
  • internal projects such as our website, the App.js website (App.js is a conference organized by our company), our open-source projects (e.g. React Native tools and Membrane Framework), and others. 

We mainly require from you:
  • at least 3 years of commercial experience as a UX or UI Designer,
  • good communication skills (in English as well) – you will be working in close cooperation with clients and teams and conduct meetings or conversations around many topics,
  • strong visual and interface skills - it means the ability to create well-crafted interfaces and knowledge of how to prepare them for development,
  • practical skills in UX – we expect that you know the whole UX path starting from general research, going through information architecture and flow maps, and ending on wireframing,
  • prototyping skills – the ability to create clickable prototypes, as well as use correct micro-interactions and animations to simulate a natural screen's behavior,
  • workshop facilitation – we expect you to conduct workshops with clients or on internal projects, use appropriate methods, and efficiently manage meetings with confidence,
  • the ability to work independently – we need to know that you can manage the project by yourself, however that doesn’t mean that this is a standard for us as members of our design team support each other.

It would be great if you had some skills around:
  • managing style guides and design systems – understanding how they are created and how to manage them, knowledge around design and code components would also be useful,
  • knowledge of the Lean UX process – our projects are managed in an agile way, and we require the same approach for the design (mindset, methods, management),
  • team leading/project leading – it would be beneficial if you were a  lead before to guide the clients and our team effectively through every design phase.

Salary offered for this position is: 
  • 8000 to 12000 PLN/B2B as UX/UI Designer, 
  • 12000 to 16000 PLN/B2B as Senior UX/UI Designer.

Benefits: 
At Software Mansion, keeping our employees happy and healthy is our top priority. The below perks are simply some of the ways that we show we care.

We take care of our employees’ wellbeing by providing:
  • flexible working hours - work whenever you like, as long as you are able to accommodate the needs of your projects,
  • 26 days of paid vacation leave (for employees on all types of contracts),
  • private healthcare – get professional medical care for you and your family,
  • sports packages - ability to obtain a sports card from Medicover Sport,
  • therapist consultations - seeing as times have been tough lately due to the pandemic and other factors, we are currently, providing free consultations with a therapist to all of our employees,
  • nutritious breakfasts and snacks that are available every day at the office.

We actively support our employees’ growth and development by:
  • financing a training budget for all employees,
  • providing each employee with 3 paid R&D days during the year that you can use to work on educational side projects,
  • assigning each employee a mentor for their first 3 months on the job,
  • organizing group training sessions for technical and non-technical skills,
  • encouraging work-related initiatives such as presenting at conferences, writing blog posts, or organizing your own workshops within the company.

You can get to know all of your co-workers better by:
  • meeting everyone at our monthly All Hands sessions accompanied by pizza, sushi & beer,
  • preparing for a delicious feast during our monthly company breakfast buffets,
  • sign up for one of our sports clubs, such as rock climbing or volleyball, or organize your own with our help,
  • taking part in one of our many workshops where you can get to know your co-workers better and learn things such as how to prepare sushi or what it takes to make the perfect espresso,
  • relaxing at our Software Mansion Mansion - we’ve recently organized workation trips for employees to places such as Masuria and The Canary Island, and are hoping to make it a tradition!
