A personal commitment to free and open source software, good communication and documentation skills, and passion for contributing to the greater good are all essential. This position will also require occasional international travel.

Salary for this position is $90,000 USD/year.

## Responsibilities


In this role, you will:


- Design and prototype new features for browser and circumvention apps on desktop and Android.

- Adhere to, maintain, and expand our design systems.

- Support our developers to ensure product changes deliver the best possible user experience.

- Engage with users and translate their feedback to meaningful product improvements.


## Skills & Experience


### Required


- Excellent proficiency with Figma and related design tools.

- Comprehensive understanding of platform conventions, UX patterns and common components.

- A great eye for detail and well organized design files.

- A history of working with comprehensive design systems.

- Experience designing for both desktop and mobile audiences.

- Experience conducting user research both remotely and in-person.

- Fluency in written and spoken English.

- Excellent communication and collaboration skills.


### Preferred


- Proficiency in a non-English language, especially Chinese, Persian, Portuguese, Russian, and/or Spanish.

- A history of designing or advocating for the causes of free-software, open source technology, human-rights, privacy, censorship-circumvention or an interest in internet-freedom in general.

- Familiarity with the challenges faced by Internet users who are subject to surveillance and censorship.


If you feel that you meet most of these requirements or could meet them with a little time and support, we would love to hear from you!
