About the job
At Cadmus, we are revolutionizing the assessment landscape, transforming how millions of students and thousands of academics engage with their learning experiences. Designing for this platform involves more than aesthetics; it encompasses a deep understanding of educational dynamics, institutional intricacies, and the requirements for effective large-scale change.
Our philosophy centers on the belief that exceptional design fosters academic integrity. When assessments are thoughtfully crafted, students are less inclined to cheat, and when platforms are intuitively designed, educators are more willing to embrace them. As a Product Designer, you will be instrumental in realizing this vision.
You will be responsible for the entire design process across key areas of our platform—ranging from initial discovery and problem identification to high-fidelity delivery and subsequent iterations after launch. Collaborating closely with product managers, engineers, and our learning team, your contributions will play a pivotal role in enhancing user experiences.
WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE
In your first year, you will have:
- Delivered design solutions that significantly enhance the academic user experience, evidenced by measurable improvements in user adoption, reduced support queries, and positive feedback from academic users.
- Contributed to the strengthening of the Cadmus design system, elevating the overall quality across our product offerings, ensuring consistency and coherence that benefits our engineering team.
- Conducted impactful user research that reshaped the product team's approach to at least one major challenge, providing genuine insights into the needs of academics and the experiences of students.
- Bridged the gap between design concepts and production realities, ensuring that your designs are faithfully executed in the final product, with minimal discrepancies between what is designed in Figma and what is delivered.
