About Scoop
Scoop enables every company to confidently operate a hybrid work model (remote + in-office) while still maximizing safety, productivity, and performance. During COVID, more than 70% of the office-based workforce shifted to full-time work from home. Looking ahead to a post-COVID world, millions of organizations will undergo a major transformation to hybrid work, with 96% of all employees saying they want to work from home at least once per week. With Scoop, companies empower those employees with the flexibility to do their best work everywhere, increasing engagement and job satisfaction.
UX @ Scoop
The entire Scoop organization has always embraced a user-centered approach to not just design but the way we craft the entire user experience. We embrace the idea that we can impact the user’s experience at every in-and-out of the product touchpoint, and that user journeys span everything from our technology to our support team.
With that in mind, our UX team embodies a growth mindset and an appreciation for collaborative work in partnership with Product, Engineering, and the rest of the teams at Scoop. We utilize best practices and leverage the latest tools to empower ourselves to iterate quickly and design beautifully.  As a senior member of the team, we’ll look to your expertise and experience to further improve our practices and process while bringing great hybrid work experiences to life for our customers and their employees.

In this role, you will:

  • Create experiences for both mobile and web platforms from ideation to high-fidelity designs and everything in between
  • Shape and evolve Scoop’s hybrid work product across our native iOS and Android apps, Chrome Extension, and Customer-facing web app
  • Develop and maintain design processes and best practices to increase design efficiency and consistency
  • Partner closely with product and engineering to shape product roadmaps, determine prioritization, and right-size scope
  • Deliver high-fidelity UI and UX specs, for example, app flows,  to clearly communicate requirements to cross-functional partners

You should:

  • Have a strong visual design sense and the skills to produce beautiful work
  • Be comfortable creating low & high fidelity prototypes
  • Have experience applying both qualitative and quantitative data in your design work
  • Have excellent knowledge of tools used for UI design, version control, user flows, prototyping, and cross-functional collaboration (at Scoop we currently use Figma)
  • Be knowledgeable (and continuously learning about) current mobile standards and UX best practices for iOS, Android, Chrome extensions, and the web
  • Thrive in a fast-paced, collaborative, cross-functional startup environment
  • Have significant overall experience as a high-performing product designer

Important note: as long as you have the experience/abilities, we don’t care how you got there! This may look like 6+ years in industry, a computer science or other relevant advanced degree, impressive personal projects/accomplishments, or any other meaningful experience!

You might:

  • Have prior start-up experiences helping shape and improve early-stage products
  • Have experience with UX research either through partnership or hands-on ownership
  • Be passionate about accessibility and inclusive design practices
  • Have experience with data visualization or service design expertise
  • Be particularly excited about the future of work and unlocking the potential of flexibility in-office and outside of it

Life @ Scoop
At Scoop, we are taking on the ambitious challenge of building the tools, data, and insights that will enable any organization to successfully enable a hybrid workforce. We believe employees everywhere should be able to operate with flexibility and freedom - at home and at the workplace. We feel rewarded when we help give people the opportunity to do their best work and we embody that same spirit within our own culture. “Bet on ourselves and our team” is enshrined in our values and we work hard to ensure every team member’s time at Scoop is the most meaningful experience of their career.
Scoop’s atmosphere is dynamic and unique. It’s influenced by our backgrounds at successful startups, big tech companies, and premier consulting firms - blended and crafted into what feels natural and right for this company. We balance being both nimble and strategic by ensuring that we think quickly, create frameworks to assist in decision making, and adjust our roadmap when new information arises. We’ve worked hard to develop a culture we’re extremely proud of and excited to share (we’ve even won awards for best leadership, culture, diversity, compensation, and benefits along the way!) 
Scoop was started in 2015 with a focus on improving the daily commute for employers and their employees. We built Scoop into the largest carpooling platform in the country, believing deeply in what it meant to bring meaning and empowerment to the daily lives of employees. We developed tremendous expertise along the way in solving challenges at the intersection of employer and employee.
Now, as we look ahead to 2021, we know COVID has transformed the world - and the commute - and it’s clear that hybrid work is the future. With an incredibly talented team of ~32 people, several years of runway, and tremendous expertise in building solutions for HR teams and their organizations, we’re excited to expand our focus and lead the transition to the hybrid workforce.
