About LOLapps

We’re a young and scrappy startup in the social application space. Since we just came out of stealth mode you can read all about us at http://www.insidefacebook.com/2009/04/21/lolapps-claims-44-million-uniques-on-facebook-platform-expanding-into-social-games/

Here are a few bullets on us, because who doesn’t love bullets?

•We’re profitable, which makes us pretty much the opposite of your typical echo chamber-spawned Si Valley startups. We’re not in this to win a pat on the head from Michael Arrington.
•We’re only 21 people. You can make a MASSIVE impact here.
•Our office is in San Francisco in the heart of SOMA.
•We have all the typical startup stuff (free food, Rock Band, great city views, etc).

Lolapps is searching for a UI/UX design and coding star to work with engineering and product management to create aesthetically pleasing interfaces millions of people will see.

Description

Responsibilities
•Work with engineering and product management to create and communicate effective page flows, page layouts, and product organization
•Create mock-up using Photoshop. Iterate with team to perfect the visual design.
•Implement HTML / CSS: If you don’t know them that’s fine, but you have to be serious about learning them

Requirements
•Not a perfectionist: You know how and are comfortable with taking shortcuts to get the best bang for your buck rather than shooting for your dream UI
•Results-driven: If a “click here” call to action performs better than a call to action that isn’t “soooo 1999!”, you go with “click here”
•Organized: You create order from chaos. You can organize processes and webpage flows whenever necessary but you don’t fix what’s not broken.
•Comfortable working in an environment where ideas are thought of, described, and executed within a span of hours to days

Desired Qualifications
•HCI degree from a top 4-year program or equivalent level of understanding
•1-5 years of UI / UX experience with at least 1 year of experience in consumer web software.
