Web Designer

Location
San Francisco, CA (Potrero HIll)

General Functions
Digg is looking for a multi-skilled designer to join our crew in San Francisco. We're hoping to find someone who can work with our Lead Designer on all of our design projects, big and small.

Responsibilities
  • Obviously, you'll be working a lot on our main site, but we'll also be looking for design work on periodic print projects, side sites, partner programs, and all the other little bits of work that crop up.
  • Because we've got a tiny design group here, you'll be working on everything from the planning stages, to initial concepts, to css/xhtml implementation, to working with the developers to integrate your work. You'll be brainstorming ideas and helping shape the ideas others introduce. You've got to really get off on creating intuitive interfaces that solve complex issues. You'll need to be able to see the whole user experience when designing the UI. You'll also need to be able to follow a defined visual style while helping us shape that style over the long term.

Qualifications
  • A strong portfolio of work that we can see would be an enormous asset for applicants. An accompanying description of your portfolio, describing its strengths and even its weaknesses, would be even better.
  • Very accomplished css and xhtml skills are required.
  • Experience with subversion, php, and javascript would be great.
