The secret to the sauce? Combining high technology with great design. As a designer at Automattic, you’re responsible for making sure the amazing things our engineers can build are easy to use and beautiful to behold. You’re designing for the web, but you’re doing so with an old-school dedication to simplicity and craftsmanship.

• You can act as the creative force in a small interdisciplinary team, responsible not just for what a product looks like, but for how it works.
• You’re passionate about good typography, and love applying those principles to the web.
• You understand the mechanics of user testing and A/B testing, and the importance of a data-informed (not data-driven) design philosophy.
• You are skilled at giving and receiving design criticism and appreciate its importance in the creative process.
• Your knowledge of web standards is both expert and ever-growing.
• You have a portfolio that reflects all of the above.
