UX Designer

Who we are:

Sellers use the platform to list used outdoor gear, and we handle payments, shipping labels and buyer protection. Niagara Digital runs an online marketplace where homeowners book local handymen, cleaners and movers.

The role:

Niagara Digital needs another UX Designer who can do both UX thinking and polished visual work. Remote within Canada. The team meets in Toronto once a quarter, travel covered. Most of our work is async, and meetings are kept short. Communication happens mostly in Slack and short video calls.

What you'll work on:

• Sketch several directions early instead of polishing the first idea.
• Run usability tests with customers, moderated or through Maze or UserTesting.
• Map current workflows and pain points using research and support data.
• Review implemented UI with engineers and file polish tickets.

Requirements:

• 3+ years of product or UX design experience on digital products.
• Ability to explain design decisions to non-designers.
• Comfort running basic user research and usability tests.
• Portfolio showing process, not just final screens.

Pluses:

• Illustration or brand design skills.
• Basic HTML and CSS.
• Motion and micro-interaction design with ProtoPie, Principle or Lottie.

Pay and benefits:

• Extended health and dental benefits.
• RRSP matching.
• Three weeks paid vacation to start.

No agencies or third-party recruiters, please.

Start: Immediately.
