ABOUT THE ROLE:
Current is looking for a talented Mobile Product Designer with great visual design and UX skills. You would be involved in the full product development cycle: from early research and product strategy, to design and developer hand-off. You should have an understanding of mobile design patterns on both iOS and Android, good visual and user experience sensibilities, and care deeply about the end-user experience.
RESPONSIBILITIES:
- Bring new ideas to life from sketching and wireframes, through to high-fidelity designs, and asset production
- Iterate on existing designs to consistently improve the user experiences and design
- Work closely with product and engineering to formulate hypotheses, validate ideas and iterate

- You take pride in the quality of your designs but can also iterate quickly, and most importantly hear other people’s feedback
- You understand that no design survives user testing untouched, and are excited about iterating from user feedback
- You are comfortable sketching on whiteboards, and turning those into wireframes and user flows to discuss with the rest of the team
- You have experience in creating both iOS and Android designs, and have familiarity with the latest mobile standards
- You love working in teams and work great under pressure
REQUIREMENTS:
- 2+ years of experience designing and shipping features for iOS and Android (we are willing to accommodate a wide range of experience levels)
- Strong portfolio demonstrating a good sense of UI and UX design, and examples of how you’ve solved complex problems
- Ability to clearly articulate your reasoning behind design decisions
- Experience working closely with engineers, including communication, understanding platform limitations, and asset production
- Ability to empathize with a wide range of users, often different from yourself, to understand their needs
