What you're looking for

We are applying for the summer lab mvp and are looking for a designer.

A Designer will work on tasks such as: • Designing highly immersive and rich user experiences • Developing iterations of UI mockups and prototypes that clearly illustrate site functionality • Engaging in user testing and analytics to optimize success metrics like quality traffic, stickiness, conversion rate, etc • Gathering and evaluate user requirements in collaboration with developers • Working with developers to implement gamification into user experience - use elements of game design (fun, motivation, reward) • Redesigning platform’s landing page and help build a strong brand identity that matches the brand experience

No Coding Required. We have a strong team of frontend/backend developers and are specifically looking for someone to help with the design process. However, if you are a developer and are interested in the project please feel free to reach out.

Short Project Description

Our MVP consists of aggregating profiles across different media platforms to allow users to interact with creators through a single portal. For example, a single page for users to get the latest posts from NASA across Twitter, YouTube, Instagram, etc. We have already made a lot of progress on our MVP and have many avenues of expansion moving forward. If you are looking for more information or would like to see what we have already built feel free to reach out to us at contact@agora-data.com.

Team Bios

We are a team of technical co-founders who have already completed multiple iterations on our MVP. We are currently a team of two college students studying Computer Science at Brown University, an experienced data scientist from University of Virginia, and a veteran product manager with extensive experience in a variety of software organizations. We have extensive experience working together building full-stack applications.

Why Work With Us

We have identified a problem and received validation from potential users about our solution. We have the technical abilities to build out the functionality we want to and iterate on features very quickly. As a designer joining our team you get to focus on the creative aspects of design without worrying about implementation (we will do that).
