You know that you don’t get there through a flash of brilliance – it comes from a deep understanding of people and how they browse, interact and play. You know how to use research, prototyping, and testing to take that first idea and turn it into an experience that is elegant, natural and valuable to the person using it. Last but not least, you love to take ownership over things and pushing them to their limit.

[/li][/ul]
What you need to bring
[ul]
[li]3+ years of hands-on experience in an interaction design or user experience design role
[/li][li]Creativity to deliver effective user interface solutions for complex software within the constraints of a strong brand
[/li][li]Expert knowledge of established and emerging user interface patterns
[/li][li]Strong understanding of shop design
[/li][li]The ability to facilitate, lead, and benefit from design critique
[/li][li]Good communication skills (written, diagrammatic, and verbal) to present and explain design decisions to non-designers in English
[/li][li]Ability to use sketches, mockups and prototypes to test assumptions and resolve design questions
[/li][li]Experience with Action Script
[/li][/ul]
What will make you stand out from the crowd
[ul]

[/li][li]Experience with Scaleform
