But we want our employees to thrive as well. Because our team members do great work for great clients, Kanopi works hard to support them in their career as they continue to create a better web.

As a result, our business continues to grow, and so must our team. We’re excited to announce this opportunity to join our team as a Contract Senior Web Visual Designer (UX/IU).

This is a great opportunity for a creative, eloquent, and organized designer to make a large impact on a growing department, with plenty of independence and flexibility within the role.

This is a fully remote position and reports to the Director of Strategy and Creative.

RESPONSIBILITIES

You can expect to:

  • Generate end-to-end visual strategy and collateral for our clients including but not limited to: strategic direction, pattern libraries, mood boards, wireframes, UI visuals, and high fidelity prototypes.
  • Collaborate with our Content and UX Strategists to craft experiences that are not only visually appealing but effective at balancing user goals and business needs.
  • Assist our internal marketing team by providing design support to further our ongoing marketing objectives.
  • Be Kanopi’s advocate for design by articulating and defending your design rationale to both internal stakeholders and clients.
  • Work closely with our Project Management team to define project deliverables and delivery schedules.
  • Contribute to website visual design direction and collaboration with the creative services team.
  • Provide mentorship to intermediate and junior team members in the form of constructive feedback and recommendations on project deliverables.

This is a contract position. Hourly rate is commensurate with experience. Not to worry, the pay is competitive and what you'd expect for this role. This is a 100% remote role, but you must live and be able to work in the United States or Canada.

NOW... LET'S TALK ABOUT YOU

  • A strong portfolio showcasing your understanding of user-centered, responsive website design.

  • Comfortable working remotely within a distributed team.
  • Comfortable working in both waterfall and agile environments.
  • Able to manage multiple projects with evolving requirements.
  • Familiarity with front-end web design practices and coding is a plus but not required.
  • Experience with mission-driven and nonprofit clients is a plus.
  • Have a passion for the web, open-source development, and working with a community of fun, humorous folks
