You will be our first "designer", primarily responsible for web and UI/UX design both on mbed.org and other new projects, working with our small team of developers to build the best tools and services we can. We are a small group working in an emerging area, so you will be expected to take a full and active role in the team and our decisions.
You have ideally designed for a complex technical web or desktop application with substantial UI/UX requirements (i.e.. not "brochure" websites).
You can extract and understand the requirements and workflows of technical users, and design the interaction and presentation to ensure they can achieve them from the tools in a simple and intuitive way.
You should have excellent experience and understanding of design with HTML and CSS (you should know why http://bit.ly/LNDh2J is funny, but naturally design to avoid it).
You have probably used JavaScript frameworks like jQuery and worked with or with developers using Python/Dja! ngo or similar application frameworks (this is what our backend is based on) to provide the user experience you are after
You prefer simple, clean design, and have an eye for layout and typesetting.
You quickly spot when the presentation, workflow or UX is wrong or breaks mental models of how things work.
