The Huffington Post is a Pulitzer Prize-winning source of breaking news, commentary, entertainment, features and lifestyle content, as well as a platform for a highly engaged community of opinion and conversation. With nearly 130 million unique visitors each month (comScore), it is the largest news site in the US.

Huff Post Tech Team members are hardcore software development and design professionals who take user interface design and coding seriously but have a great time while doing so. We don't know the difference between work and play. Not only do we have healthy snacks, nap rooms, and a ping pong table but a Minecraft server as well. The HuffPost Tech Team is small enough that you get to know everyone but large enough that you'll find a great work-life balance.

In this role, you will:

• Collaborate with Product, Engineering and Design to develop new products and evolve existing ones
• Create solutions to complex interface and interaction design challenges
• Design for web, mobile web, native apps and internal tools (CMS)
• Conduct competitive landscape research and analysis
• Iterate based on stakeholder feedback, data, tech constraints

• Minimum of 5+ years experience as a key member of a User Experience Design team
• Experience designing mobile products
• Knowledge of trends and best practices in user experience design
• Ability to juggle multiple projects without compromising quality
• Stellar communication skills
• Great attitude and willingness to learn new things
• Sense of humor

Nice to haves:
