Description
Cooper (http://www.cooper.com/) is a design and strategy firm based in San Francisco. Since 1992 we’ve worked with clients around the world to create products and services that delight the people who use them. Some of our clients include The J. Paul Getty Museum, HP, NBC, Sony, Dolby Labs and Thomson Reuters. You name an industry and we’ve no doubt designed for it – museum kiosks, automotive entertainment & navigation systems, consumer products (the LitL webbook and Flip Video movie editing software just to name a couple), financial services systems, medical software and devices and the list goes on.
Right now we’re looking for a top notch UI Developer to help us bring our design ideas to life. Are you the one?
Our UI Developer will work closely with design teams, to create prototypes and demos that help to explore and communicate concepts and designs for rich-interactive products and services like mobile consumer apps, hospital informatics systems, tablet-based financial tools, and complex desktop software. Other responsibilities include helping to establish prototyping workflows to allow visual designers, interaction designers and prototypers to collaborate smoothly through rapid design iteration. There will also be other internal projects assigned to include, but not limited to managing and improving the Cooper web and mobile sites.
Other things we're looking for in our dream candidate: an eye for detail, a collaborative temperament, a professional attitude, a good sense of the aesthetics of motion (i.e. animation), and a strong desire to learn and keep up-to-date with front-end technologies and trends.
