ABOUT US:

Braintrust is the only network that gives in-demand talent all the freedom of freelance with all the benefits, community and stability of a full-time role. As the first decentralized talent network, our revolutionary Web3 model ensures the community that relies on Braintrust to find work are the same people who own and build it through the blockchain token, BTRST. So unlike other marketplaces that take 20% to 50% of talent earnings, Braintrust allows talent to keep 100% of earnings and to vote on key changes to improve the network.

  • JOB TYPE: Freelance, Contract Position (no agencies/C2C - see notes below)
  • LOCATION: Remote - Work from anywhere (TimeZone: GMT/WET | Partial overlap)
  • HOURLY RANGE: Our client is looking to pay $45 - $70/hr
  • ESTIMATED DURATION: 40h/week - Long term

THE OPPORTUNITY

MUST-HAVE SKILLS:
  • UX over UI - complex problem solving
  • Experience working with data, measuring (and demonstrating) impact, working fast and incrementally
  • Idea generation & identifying opportunities - confident in shaping the direction of product work

Nice to have
  • Experience in B2B products is ideal but not essential

Overall Requirements
  • Able to overlap with GMT working hours (at least 5 hours per day)
  • You'll have rich experience working in a Product or UX Design role - designing, shipping and optimizing impactful products at scale in an agile environment. You'll need the solid intuition and expertise that comes from a good few years working in the field.
  • Relentlessly user focussed, leading by example to advocate for user needs throughout the product development cycle, and to stress-test designs through usability and a/b testing.
  • Obsessed with outcomes over outputs. You're constantly drawing the connection between the work you're doing and the impact you're having. They judge the quality of the work by what's shipped, and the real world, the measurable impact it's having on fans and artists.
  • Demonstrable experience in initiating and leading user research, and delivering tangible value from research output.
  • Fully comfortable in the details - not just in pixels, but in the nuts-and-bolts decisions behind the UX that drive quality experiences at scale.
  • Well practiced in working with design systems, and in realizing their value for the wider business.
  • Comfortable creating concise and engaging product copy, and effective storytelling with the wider team
  • Strong collaboration skills across disciplines and departments to drive change into products
  • Totally at home in Figma
  • Bonus points for a love of live music
