Wall Street On Demand: Interaction Designer
Location: Boulder, CO
Do
you believe, in a freshman-year kind of way, that design just might save the
world? Do you design things that are as elegant and efficient as they are
beautiful? Do you get excited about working in a space with a 50-foot
whiteboard? We
do too. Our
company is successful because we care about design. Sure, we care about how
things look, but what's really important to us is the clear and clever
communication of ideas and information. We love digging into complex and messy
problems because it's our opportunity to tease a little order out of the chaos.
We work with other designers, developers, engineers, financial analysts, and
our clients to set new standards for information design. Our work gets billions
of hits a day, so what you do here matters. Exciting,
right? We
have a design team of about 30 people, and our business is growing at 20% a
year, so we need good people growing with us. We're looking for designers
who can create experiences and who value grid and hierarchy just as much as the
artistic visual touches. We want people who get excited about building
compelling visualizations to communicate a story buried under a thousand data
points. We need designers who are equally at home with sketches,
wireframes, and pixel-perfect prototypes. We're also very fond of people
who can explain the ideas behind their work with both confidence and humility. It's
a lot, we know, but it's worth it. This
might be your kind of place if you... ?
think that design lies in the intentionally imperfect union of form and
function. ?
can tell us a story through numbers alone. Or chopsticks for that matter. ?
discovered Tufte and realized you weren't alone in your obsession. Oh,
and us? How nice of you to ask. We... ?
don't love cubicles. Or walls of any sort, really. ?
blush when clients call us data geeks, or tell us we're detail obsessed. ?
are equally fascinated by Radiolab and Planet Money. On
top of the good stuff like competitive salaries, health insurance, and 401k,
there's? ?
getting paid to bike, bus or carpool to work. ?
unlimited chocolate. Yes, it can get a bit Wonka in here, more Wilder than Depp
though. ?
professional massage therapy as a thank-you. To apply: So if you think you'd be a good fit here, email us at jobs.tss@wallst.com with? ? your résumé. We need to see how well you color inside the lines. ? a selection of your work that you think we'd like. Coloring outside the lines is encourage |

Temboo: Visual Design at Temboo
Location: New York
We're looking for a Visual Designer with an eye for elegant interaction
design. We know you're out there. C'mon, talk to us. You know you
wanna.
// Why would you want to talk to us?
Well, we're fun and interesting and *always* the life of the party.
What? Not enough?
Okay, here's more:
We're building a set of next-generation visual tools that allow
non-developers to create complex customized applications ? empowering,
community-centric software with amazing potential. We're making it
easier for mere mortals to do the work of the gods and do it with a
smile on their face.
We are a small but solid start-up full of smart people who love to
learn from one another. We are dedicated to making the most useful and
elegant product imaginable.
We eat lunch together on Fridays and often make the same jokes more than once.
// What needs to be done?
A crap ton. Yes, that is a word we just made up. Or maybe we heard it
on the street. While you might not find it in the Oxford English
Dictionary, it does accurately describe the work ahead of us. Quite
simply, it means "a lot".
The visual designer is an especially important role, because you
will work with both our Brand and UX teams. On the brand side, you will
contribute ideas to a new look and feel for our very complex suite of
interactive products and help revise our company's visual identity.
You'll then take that visual identity and work with UX to insure it
becomes integrated holistically in our software.
//What we're hoping we'll find in you.
A portfolio chock full of beautiful graphic interface work, and at least a smattering of stunning print work
The belief that design is as much about emotion, behavior and story-telling as it is about utility and ease of use
Real empathy and respect for your audience of end users
The ability to create layouts, color palettes, user interface elements,
icons, prototypes and project documentation. Have a nerdy fascination
with typography and, perhaps, think a lot about what centuries of print
design mean in the interactive environment.
The tendency to look in unexpected places for inspirations
Curiosity and a quick sense of humor
Ideally, your humble beginnings are rooted in art school or graphic
design or architecture. Then somewhere along the line you discovered
fields like interaction design or human computer interaction and
thought, "hey, that's for me"
Expert proficiency in the tools of your trade. Pick your poison. We
could list a bunch of software in which you should have expertise. But
we don't care. Why? We'll take it for granted that as a seasoned visual
designer, you're familiar with stuff like Photoshop and Illustrator and
Visio or Omnigraffle. We're not focused on the methods, just the end
result. And the end result should effectively communicate your designs
in interesting ways to our developers, so they can grasp your
intentions and build them.
Self-motivation, good communication, comfort with both following
direction *and* change. We're a start up software company with a
dynamic environment. The only constant is that things change (and
change often). You need to be comfortable with that.
--
It'll will be fun, we promise. We are opinionated. We'll challenge you.
We know just enough about visual design to be dangerous. But we're not
too proud to ask for help.
This a 3 month contract position on site in New York City that
could lead to fulltime employment. To apply: If you're interested, email us your resume and portfolio at jobs@temboo.com |

CloudCrowd: Software Development Engineers (Back-End)
Location: San Francisco, California
CloudCrowd has just raised a $5m venture round and is taking off like a rocketship. We are building a set of massively disruptive applications on top of next-generation crowdsourcing (we call it ?Widesourcing?). Only a very few people, as yet, understand the explosive potential of CloudCrowd's Widesourcing platform. In part, that?s because those people who even know what crowdsourcing is tend to associate it with masses of low-value drudge tasks done at the behest of enterprise overseers. There?s plenty of that kind of work, but that?s not where we?re going. We're taking work that has NEVER been streamlined, such as the writing of press releases and the creation of databases, and turning them into highly-collaborative factory operations. We're developing a major SEO application, and a major push into merchandising. This is one of the most significant platform opportunities in technology today. Our press release application will revolutionize a business sector that has seen no change in 70 years. Our SEO push will bring scary efficiencies to what has to date been a wild frontier. With a 50,000 strong workforce, and more than 2 million tasks under its belt, CloudCrowd is poised to be one of the hottest companies of 2011. Want to work on platform that will be used by millions of consumers and businesses? CloudCrowd?s Widesourcing platform has recently been featured on NBC, ABC, in USA Today, and in TechCrunch. Widesourcing takes the possibilities of the original CrowdSourcing experiments and turns them into a real-time labor platform that will rival social networking in global impact.
Benefits include stock options, health benefits, and more. We're in the SOMA part of San Francisco.
