Zello is a voice-first communication platform, powered by our industry-leading push-to-talk technology, to improve collaboration and productivity for desk-less workers. With over 175+ million users, we’re the #1 rated push-to-talk app in the world, delivering 9 billion (yes, with a B) messages a month.
At Zello, our company values are at the heart of what we do everyday. We’re proud to serve the frontline, we’re privileged to connect people in times of crisis across the globe, and we’re honored to support first responders.
And this is where you come in.
As a Product Designer at Zello, you will work with fellow designers to design new features from the ground up. From foundational exploration and research through prototyping and testing, you’ll help your (and our) vision come to life. Whereas many designers approach their work with a heuristic analysis, you balance heuristics with research. Our 175+ million users span all levels of technical prowess and ability, and we’ve learned that what’s best for many users isn’t what’s best for others. You'll see projects through in all their forms by analyzing a problem space, researching competitors, proposing solutions, usability testing your designs, revising, revising more, and finally handing off for development.
Work collaboratively with your team’s product manager, engineers, and relevant subject matter experts to deliver solutions and definition.
Build and maintain component systems, screens, and flows in Figma.
Work with your team to deliver new features on a two-week cadence.
Work in low- and high-fidelity as necessary.
Facilitate productive feedback discussions, empowering non-designers to give their best and most helpful input.
Create, prototype, and test your designs.
Spec your designs for engineering handoff.
Collaborate with other designers to ensure best research and testing practices.
Collaborate with engineers by building and testing projects to ensure design fit and finish.
You have 5+ years of design experience.
You value collaboration and drive it by inviting diverse colleagues into the design process.
You value craft — you take the birdseye to define a solution and comfortably get into the minutia to draw icons, write redlines, and test new builds.
You employ a hybrid of heuristics and inductive research. There are usability basics that apply to all users, but the story doesn’t end there.
You have a background in digital products with complex, diverse user bases. Our app serves a variety of users, from frontline workers to HAM radio enthusiasts to Latin American teens.
You build low-fidelity prototypes in Figma, Principle, or a comparable tool.
You build high-fidelity prototypes in Origami (preferable) or a comparable tool.
You’re a Figma expert.
You’re familiar with HTML, CSS, and JS.
You’re familiar with Xcode and Android Studio.
