The Opportunity
Ever worked on a product where the requirements were dictated to you by stakeholders? Not at Pluralsight. We believe in Human-Centered Design, empowered teams, and the customer breaking the tie. Which means you will be working on a cross-functional team who all share the same focus: learning from our customers and using that knowledge to decide what problems to solve and how to solve them. This is why we look for practitioners who are passionate about understanding people, committed to lifelong learning, and are driven by the love of what they do.
Who You Are Committed to Being

• You are passionate about learning and making progress every day
• You establish a desired outcome and motivate others to come along
• You ask questions, understand nuance, and challenge conventional wisdom
• You use a customer-first approach
• You understand what people say they want and what they actually want may differ
• You actively seek feedback
• You utilize inclusive and accessible practices
• You operate with empathy and integrity
• You improve the health of your team
• You are open to the best solution, regardless of its source
• You distill clarity from ambiguity
• You are committed to Pluralsight's mission and values

What You'll Own

• Defining, prioritizing, and delivering outcomes with your team
• Discovering customer needs and balancing those with business objectives
• Preparing for and conducting user research along with the product manager
• Collaborating with the team to determine an appropriate solution based on research
• Creating concepts, wireframes, designs, and prototypes for testing, experimentation and development
• Defining the information architecture, the interactions, and the visual design
• Helping the team reflect and improve on how they work

Experience You'll Need

• 3-5 years of user experience design and visual design for software or other complex GUI experiences
• A strong understanding of user research and human-centered design
• An analytical approach to testing new features
• Strong communication skills
• Proven ability to speak on a technical level and communicate clearly with developers and engineers
• Strong interest in the learning, and in improving how consumers consume and interact with content
