Snips is looking for a Senior Web & Graphic Designer to join our team in Paris.
You will be working with the Design Team along with the Labs Team and Marketing Team. Your role will be to continue to develop and apply the Snips design brand guideline to all of our customer touch points — from web pages to consumer packaging, trade show booths, print material, marketing materials and beyond. Snips takes a lot of pride in the brand we have developed, and are looking for the right designer to help take our solid foundation to new heights. As we transition from a B2B company to building out our developer community and consumer brand, the possibilities are abundant.
Voice interaction is a new paradigm, we are looking for creative minds, keen to embrace new challenges without an installation manual. We are exploring the unknown of voice interaction and we want to re-invent it so it becomes truly intuitive and simple. This is an awesome opportunity to take a distinct background in web and graphic design into a new vertical of technology.
Core Competencies
GRAPHIC DESIGN AND TYPOGRAPHY
We are looking for a designer with a strong background in graphic design and typography principles. Snips will be creating content and assets across digital, physical, and print, and the brand elements will need to be developed to encompass many types of touchpoints.
WEB DESIGN
The Snips website is ever-evolving. We have to cater to three core audiences: Enterprise, Developers, and Consumers. Each of these groups needs a slightly unique design language that fits within our brand guidelines. There are nuanced needs to each demographic when it comes to web and our design team needs to seamlessly weave these together. We also launch a number of microsites for different projects that allow the exploration of a wider design vocabulary.
OVERALL IDENTITY
Snips has put a lot of effort into brand, not something too common in the world of AI. Our identity must be perceived as strong and differentiate us from our competition, while being human and always a bit playful. You will be responsible for the consistency of the brand, and and the expansion of this identity as we move into new markets.
UX - UI
Because there is going to be a large Web Design element to this role, you’ll need to have strong principles in UX and UI. You’ll work on designing web tools that will let anyone, even a 6th grader with a Raspberry Pi, easily build and install an assistant on their devices.
PROJECT/TEAM MANAGEMENT
You will be managing a team of designers (in house and possibly freelancers), will be responsible for quality control and deadline management.
Good to know
English is the official language of the company, as we have over 15 different nationalities, so don't worry if you don't speak French!
We are actively working to make Snips an inclusive environment and celebrate our diversity of gender identity and expression, ethnicity, and cultures.
On top of a competitive salary, we offer many perks including relocation assistance and visa sponsorships, laptops, maker kits, language classes, sports classes (spinning, yoga, boxing, climbing etc), full health insurance, a transport card and free lunches every day! We’re also family friendly and offer daycare sponsorship.
