ABOUT US
VideoAmp’s mission is to bridge the gap between television and digital advertising with campaign measurement, planning and audience-targeting solutions that dramatically improve the performance and cost-efficiency of advertising investment. Our engineers, data scientists, designers and media strategists are inspired by tackling one of the most challenging problems in media and marketing — bridging the divide between TV and digital media.

ABOUT THE ROLE
We are looking for a true Product Design professional who thrives on solving complex, data driven design challenges. Someone who is interested in having real, measurable impact on the lives of those humans you’re designing for on the other side of the screen. Someone who understands the strengths, opportunities, and breadth of possibilities that present themselves through the entire length of a user journey, and someone who understands how to make something truly usable and efficient while incorporating and bolstering a refined brand experience. Not only can this Designer can handle multiple projects and inputs at one time and design for a long-term strategy, but they are eager to work directly with clients and our research teams. They understand that if what they’re Designing and building doesn’t work for people - it just doesn’t work.

You will be responsible for working collaboratively with the Design, Product, and Engineering teams to solve complex interface challenges and bring products to life from ideation to release. To do that you’ll need to know how to create and document design materials so that: the Product team can understand your solutions, the Research team knows how to properly test, Engineering understands exactly what they’re building, and Product Marketing and Sales understand what to expect and how to properly educate and excite the customer. Above all, you have to be eager to take on new challenges and sincerely want to make your mark on a brand new product literally starting a revolution in its industry. So, changing the world sounds like fun, we should chat.
