- Contribute to both Automattic products (via feedback) and the larger open-source and design communities.

- Past work experience that is relevant for Automattic: remote work, WordPress, e-commerce, site editors, etc.
- A keenness for identifying user needs, defining clear solutions, and delivering those through detailed design.
- The flexibility to design in low and high fidelity and choose the most efficient and responsible process for the job at hand.
- The ability to integrate feedback, validate, and iterate on designs while being mindful of our customers, contributors, and insights gleaned by our support teams.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills—you’ll collaborate with others and present your work regularly in a written format.
- Proficiency in design and prototyping tools (we use Figma) and familiarity with website development cycles.
- Strong UI and visual design skills with a portfolio showcasing your craft in both written and visual form.
- Familiarity with remote work (or excitement to try it!).

- Please note that salary ranges are global, regardless of location, and we pay in local currency.
- We are searching for high-caliber candidates with the skills and qualities to have a net positive for Automattic.
- Pay will reflect the potential contribution and the impact you can bring, which may, in some cases, go beyond the range stated.
