The eduFire Blog

Do you want to change the world by making learning fun for students and empowering teachers around the world? Are you fanatical about delivering world-class user experiences? Would you like to join a small team where you’ll be the lead UI/UX designer working closely with marketing, engineering and a customer-focused CEO to create the best learning experience possible?

Here’s the kind of thing we’re looking for (plus a little more about ourselves!).

You…

• Think in terms of tasks and users when designing applications
• Possess solid HTML/Javascript/CSS skills and the ability to produce interfaces that are fast and work consistently across browsers
• Have knowledge of Y! YUI Library (http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/)
• Have a portfolio online of web *apps* that you’ve developed
• Aren’t scared off by code or the occasional controller
• Are passionate about shipping products that delight customers and enjoy watching people use your product and learning from the experience (even when it’s painful)

Oh, and you’re looking forward to having a massive impact on the direction of the product and the look and feel of the site.

Us…

• A small team of experienced professionals focused on doing one thing: Revolutionizing Education
• Funded by a top-tier VC
• Employ the “Getting Real” philosophy and engage in test-driven development and paired programming
• Results-driven, we move fast and we don’t waste time with pointless meetings

Last but not least, we have fun, love flexibility and enjoy working on a revenue-generating product that already has a lot of raving fans (check out our forums and see what our community’s talking about).

If you like how this sounds, please take a few minutes and read the rest of our blog / manifesto and spend some time on our site. If this resonates with you, drop a line with ”eduFire Lead Designer” in the subject line to jobs@edufire.com.  Please send us URLs of your work!
