The UX team plays an integral part in gathering these insights and then using them to inspire and inform design. We are a multi-disciplinary team of interaction designers, visual designers, user researchers, content strategists and web developers who collaborate closely with each other and with engineering and product management to create innovative, usable, great-looking products that people love to use. 职责 • Design one or more of Google's consumer facing products. • Create a look consistent with all of Google while pleasing our users. • Communicate effectively in a cross-functional product development team and present ideas and designs effectively. • Present the user interface visually so information is easy to read, easy to understand and easy to find. • Market and promote products and features so users understand what they're getting and what the benefits are 应聘要求 • Minimum qualifications: • BA/BS degree in Design (e.g., interaction, graphic, visual communications, product, industrial), HCI, CS, or a related field or equivalent practical experience. • 3 years of experience in a related field.
