Job Description:
Fidelity Labs is seeking an experienced and customer-focused
Principal Product Designer to join a newly formed startup, looking
to develop the next generation of financial products and
services.
At Fidelity Labs, we don't accept the status quo. We're debating,
experimenting, researching, teaching, and collaborating on new
ideas to help people live better financial lives. We have dedicated
multi-functional teams that operate like startups, but have the
backing and resources of Fidelity to ensure that we are able to
focus on the things that matter. Using a combination of ingenuity,
and innovation methodologies, our startups take a customer-centric
approach to problem solving, with a focus on rapid experimentation,
and the permission to fail.
The Team
The Principal Product Designer is a key member of the startup,
playing an important role in the strategy and development of new
products through reciprocal concepting, wireframing, prototyping,
and ultimately building clean, pixel-perfect UI to be developed and
delivered to happy users.
This role calls for a strong individual contributor, equally as
comfortable virtual whiteboarding and concepting with the team as
new features are being developed as you are putting on headphones
and cranking out appealing, intuitive UI design. As part of a
tight-knit team charged with crafting new products and services,
the Principal Product Designer is passionate about first
understanding the needs of our customers, then helping to shape
innovative solutions to address them. The ideal candidate is an
effective communicator that loves what they do and brings a
creative, dynamic, collaborative spirit to the office every day.
With a proven attention to detail and a passion for advocating for
the needs of the customer, they live for interactive design, have a
strong individual work ethic with a maniacal attention to detail,
strive to produce the work at the highest quality standards and
absorb design knowledge and trends.
The Expertise You Have
BA/BS degree in graphic design, communication design,
human-computer interaction, or a related field, or equivalent
practical experience
Experience participating in the full product development lifecycle
of web, mobile, and/or software applications
4-8 years of work experience in some combination of UI/UX roles, or
similar role in a related field
The ability to reciprocally partner with peers (researchers, design
directors, content strategists, product managers) to understand
customer needs, motivations, and behaviors and translate them into
deliverable tasks
Experience crafting design artifacts such as wireframes,
interactive prototypes, and pixel-perfect design comps
Experience using style guides and component/pattern libraries in a
detailed and consistent manner
Experience with Agile methodology and tools
Proven expertise with Figma, Sketch, and Adobe Creative Cloud
Experience facilitating user research and building detailed
synthesis outputs
Experience with crypto, blockchain, and concepts surrounding
decentralized finance a plus
The Skills You Bring
Good listening skills, with the ability to communicate design
rationale to key partners outside of the design team (such as
business, legal, technology teams)
Formal observation and facilitation of customer and user feedback
sessions, contextual research, and usability tests
Ability to keep up in a fast-paced environment. Experience with
Agile is not necessary, but a plus
Ability to self-manage time and tasks
A clean aesthetic
Solid attention to detail and a systematic approach to applying a
design library
You demonstrate a clear and compelling design sense grounded in
compassion and thoughtfulness
You demonstrate to others 'how' and 'why' design decisions are
made
Ability to collaborate with engineering and technology partners to
ensure that code is being built as designed during projects
You have a powerful impulse to improve existing designs, invent new
experiences, and perform better than our competition
A consistent curiosity for implementing new design software and
tools to help improve workflow
The Value You Deliver
Bringing business ideas to life, through sketching, wireframing,
prototyping, designing and shipping products
Helping your team deliver valuable experiences to our customers
Facilitating and inspiring idea generation techniques
Sharing your expert knowledge with a design team that wants to
develop their skills to be the best in the industry
