At Livefront, we help companies design and build world-class digital products that command attention and inspire joy. We’ve helped household names like Target, Samsung, General Mills, and Optum create experiences that have reached millions of people, and startups like HomeSpotter and Acclaim build entirely new businesses that challenge their industries’ status quo.
We’re looking for an outstanding Associate Product Designer to join our team. This is a junior- to mid-level position with a preference to be based out of our headquarters in Minneapolis.
The Associate Product Designer is a supporting role to our Livefront product design team. Your primary objective will be to make the design team more productive, more efficient, more organized, and better prepared in all contexts and engagements with and for our client partners.

You’re able to understand and navigate design systems and platform requirements. You have exceptional organizational skills; you find energy and comfort in bringing organization and structure to chaos. You are eager to support and assist others to make them successful.

- You believe in sweating the details, giving a damn about quality, and taking pride in going the extra mile.
What you bring to the table
- A portfolio showcasing exemplary visual design skills.
- An understanding of current UI/UX best practices, as well as modern design tools like Sketch, Figma, Adobe Creative Suite, Keynote and various prototyping tools.
- Excellent communication skills and a strong ability to answer questions and solve problems at varying levels of resolution.
- Above-average discipline and personal organizational skills.
- An obvious comfort with critique and taking direction in the context of an iterative design process.
- Experience producing design decks to communicate design flows to clients and engineers.
- A demonstrated hunger for personal and professional growth within the field.

What you will do every day
- Support and assist the Livefront product design team across all projects and products.
- Create, maintain, and update design prototypes.
- Create, maintain, and update design decks.
- Write scripts, prepare assets, and summarize results of usability and user testing sessions performed by the design team.
- Work within established design systems to maintain and update style guides, assets, and deliverables.
- Work with engineers to answer design questions, make adjustments, and provide assets for the design-to-development hand-off process.
- Adapt image, photo, illustration, and other assets across responsive breakpoints on various device sizes.
- Work within the production constraints of each platform for which we’re designing and/or engineering.
- Coordinate and package style guide assets.
- Manage your time across a mix of both small and large projects with overlapping priority and urgency.
- Organize and maintain working files inside a collaborative file structure.
- Adopt new practices and tools as our work, and the design industry, evolves.
- Proofread copy and fix errors and formatting in design source files and production decks.
- Note: The above is not meant to be an all-inclusive list of duties and responsibilities, but constitutes a general definition of the position's scope and function within the Livefront design team.
