Looking for a UI + UX Lead
About us:
Singly is a startup based in the Mission District of San Francisco.
We’re on a mission to empower individuals and developers by breaking down barriers that limit personalization and creative expansion of the web. By connecting networks and platforms and allowing open interaction and portability of data, Singly will turn constraint into opportunity. We aren’t simply allowing developers to build on this platform; we’re encouraging, supporting and interacting with them in every way.
Our office is open, beautiful and bright. In fact, so is our team. We ♥ node.js, sunlight, vegetables, good beer, music and anything open source. Singly prides itself on maintaining a positive atmosphere with open communication and an ever-challenging workload.

- Collaborate with engineers and other designers as needed.

- Develop and maintain specs and mocks.
