Gloo - Digital Designer

Gloo is a digital platform designed for people and enterprises and organizations who “champion" the personal growth of their users in wellness, spirit and relationship. The Gloo platform blends the best technology tools in customer relationship, content publishing, learning and social marketing to create a scalable growth platform that enables co-creation and collaboration. Gloo’s vision is millions of Champions leveraging a common platform transforming peoples’ stories worldwide. Are you up for the challenge?


As a core member of the implementation team you are responsible for creating engaging mobile web experiences that engage users in order to help them learn and grow. You do a lot more than just "design"; you coordinate with other members of functional teams, including copywriters and graphic designers, to conceptualize mobile pages in order to most effectively organize, convey and present both word- and graphic-based content. You’ll also help us develop companywide standards and best practices to achieve a whole new level of process maturity. Your experience working on client engagements at a digital agency is ideal experience for what you’ll encounter here.


What you'll be doing 
• Producing content using the Gloo portal, JavaScript, HTML5 and CSS3
• Determining the best flow and layout for content based on the client’s genre
• Becoming an expert on the Gloo platform so that you can guide others along their way
• Reviewing training materials and deliverables to maintain content accuracy and effectiveness.
• Supporting the Implementation Teams by helping design art and graphics – after all – we are a small company and everyone wears a lot of hats!
• Thinking through a tough challenge over a game of table tennis


What you'll bring to this position 
• You’ve attained a BS/BA with an emphasis on communications, digital media or technical design
• In possession of 4+ years of development experience in a marketing or digital agency – specific experience designing for various screen sizes (especially mobile)
• You can demonstrate Guru level computer skills and you’re not afraid to let your inner geek out. Mainstream technologies will include a strong subset of these – HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, JSON and a WordPress like publishing environment.
• You’ve mastered Photoshop and Illustrator 
• A creative problem solver who can not only visualize but take the idea past the drawing board into reality
• You have worked in a small team so you know what it means to shift priorities and wear a bunch of hats
• An organized professional capable of managing your time, tasks and activities without daily guidance
• A born Dreamer – you look at the way things are and see how they can be better!
• Building strong and long-standing relationships is an important part of your life


And what you'll enjoy
• Compensation commensurate with experience
• Medical with HSA contribution
• An incredible team of talented and passionate folks to hang out with
