Designer at Yepstr

👋 Don’t forget to include a link or PDF with your portfolio.

 Yepstr is looking for a talented designer that will create awesome user experiences and make the world a better place at the same time. Here you’ll have the opportunity to join us in a super exciting growth period but still the early days of the company.

We are looking for someone who loves to combine thoughtful, beautiful design and a user experience that makes the UI intuitive, simple and fun to use – how it feels to use a product is as important as how it looks.

As a designer at Yepstr you will get the chance to be the guardian of all of our visual content. You will care for our existing visual identity, develop it and take it to the next level in our app, website and marketing material. Both print and digital advertising.

Your primary focus will be, together with the rest of the product team, to create new concepts for flows and functionality and improve our foundation as you go. To your help you have our, very much, engaged community giving you the opportunity to conduct user tests and interviews with our existing users. Together with your gut and feel you’ll have complete access to our analytics tools to take data driven decisions.

At Yepstr you’ll have the opportunity to show off your work in all kinds of channels. With your design you’ll make everyday life better for families while at the same time helping young people to their first jobs.

You are someone who likes to take control of the entire design process and you’re full of initiative. You will be surrounded by a great, ambitious and curious team who loves to listen, discuss ideas and help out in anyway they can. At Yepstr you’ll both give and receive tasks from others. Collaboration is crucial. You’ll share your learnings and victories on team meetings and smaller focus groups. This is a workplace where you have the chance to grow as a team mate and designer.
