    Default job background
    Full time
    Description

    We are working on building the next $100M revenue Fintech company (founded in Europe)

    To do this, we know we need the best product in the world and that means we are obsessed by bringing together the most talented team possible; with diverse experiences, backgrounds and skills.

    We have a variety of backgrounds in our team, from people who joined us with zero experience (through the Code Academy - read more here) to those who have spent lots of time in huge companies with bags of experience.

    We are focused on delivering world-class software products that deliver true value. With 1000's of enterprise customers like Expedia, Chubb, XPO – we must be doing something right. But the journey is just beginning... we have 100k users on our platform every month and handle more than $2 trillion of invoice transactions.

    At approx. $35M revenue today and with about 250 Sidetraders worldwide, we are not an early-stage start-up, but with ambitious plans for growth, we are at an exciting time in our story; and need the right talent to help us achieve our goals.

    How our teams are structured:

    We have three Tech Hubs at Sidetrade, one in Birmingham (UK), one in Paris (France) and one in Calgary (Canada). We work in small, autonomous teams mixed with highly skilled engineers, usually up to a maximum of 7. Each team (or Squad) has a Product Manager, Technical Lead, a mix of engineers and dedicated QA.

    Each Squad has the autonomy to decide how they work best, within a basic Agile framework and work on strategic, customer-focused projects that deliver huge value.

    Guilds

    As well as our day-to-day teams who focus on product delivery, we also have what we call Guilds. These Guilds or groups of like-minded engineers, focus on specific technologies to focus/harness passion on deep technical expertise as well as following latest market trends. Anybody can join a guild – so either it's your passion or you just want to learn something new.

    We currently have 6 Guilds in our R&D department:

    • UI/UX – Focuses on how to build the best front-end framework using React to present the best customer experience (check our medium blog which received more than 300 claps here)
    • API's & Gateway - Focuses on how evolve to Microservice architecture using .NET Core
    • Data Engineering – Focuses on how to build the best backend data pipelines to manage/move our data using Python, SQL & our event driven architecture over RabbitMQ.
    • Data Science – Focuses on how we can improve our AI assistant (Aimie) and maximise the huge amount of data that we sit on
    • SRE – Focuses on how we best deploy/manage all the infrastructure every single day using tools like Ansible & Azure DevOps
    • Test – Focuses on quality, how we improve quality & how we maintain quality using automated testing tools like Cypress

    You will be working as part of the User Experience team helping shape the future of our flagship SaaS product.

    Our ideal candidate is not only passionate about creating visually appealing and intuitive designs but is also excited about contributing to and working within a structured Design System framework.

    Working closely with our UX/UI team, Product Managers, as well as multiple engineering squads, and other business stakeholders, you will be responsible for a variety of tasks. To be successful in this role, you should have experience in Design Systems and Adobe XD.

    Responsibilities:

    • Work collaboratively with other designers to implement and adhere to our Design System guidelines.
    • Assist in the creation and maintenance of UI components, patterns, and style guides within the Design System.
    • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure consistent application of the Design System across various projects.
    • Contribute to the evolution and improvement of the Design System based on user feedback and industry best practices.
    • Create wireframes, user flows, and prototypes that align with the established Design System.
    • Participate in design critiques and provide constructive feedback to foster continuous improvement.
    • Not only will you be a key player in the Design System, but you also could manage and deliver design projects from end-to-end.

    Requirements:

    • Strong portfolio showcasing design projects, with a focus that ideally demonstrates utilisation of a design system.
    • Basic understanding of UX/UI principles and proficiency in Figma.
    • Eagerness to learn and ability to apply Design System principles to new and existing projects.
    • Excellent communication and collaboration skills.
    • A passion for staying informed about industry trends and emerging technologies.
    • Experience in an environment where analysis, critical thinking, usability tests, and information architecture are commonplace. You will be expected to organise autonomously complex information and translate it into wireframes.

    Bonus traits:

    • A pixel-perfect geek that's happy solving functionality problems, we're not looking for just a creative thinker.
    • Experience working with version control systems for design files.
    • Knowledge of front-end development technologies.
    • Experience in Figma.

    What we can offer you:

    • The chance to deliver features to huge B2B customers that have 1000's of active users every day like Expedia, Chubb, XPO and many more.
    • The chance to work for a European hyper-growth European AI company with recent acquisition in US.
    • The chance to work in a hybrid-remote environment with the option to work from home and as well as our Birmingham Tech Hub, with regular travel opportunities (if you'd like).
    • The chance to work in a Guild of your choice with dedicated time available to work together on Guild-based tasks, like research, learning, mini hackathons etc.
    • Full access to content so that you can self-learn
    • The opportunity to work remotely or onsite or hybrid
    • 25 days holiday + bank holidays
    • Healthcare plan (after probation)
