About the Role

At Vidyard we pride ourselves in our ability to iteratively ship value to the users. Over the years this has resulted in some great new features and functionality.

That’s where you come in. In this critical role your main focus will be to develop and execute a strategic UX vision for how our various features and products work cohesively in a simple, delightful experience that users love.

  • Action & Impact: Balancing long term vision with short term execution. Continuously shipping value that is aligned to the vision.
  • Level Up Others: Regularly coach members of the design team. Help educate others outside of the design team on the value of great design. Help implement improvements to team processes like critiques and team meetings.

  • Ability to own the end-to-end design process.
