Student intern contributing to PR TIMES and Web Clipping development through security improvements, legacy-code work, data analysis, API and web application development, automation, and machine-learning features.
About this role
The UI/UX Designer will work on new and improved features for the PR TIMES press release distribution service and related products, including PR TIMES STORY and Web Clipping. Multiple projects run in parallel, covering improvements to existing functions and development of new products.
Working with product managers and engineers, the role covers requirements definition, experience design, UI/UX design production, and UX design across projects. Specific responsibilities include identifying design-related issues, reviewing user stories, and improving design systems and guidelines.
The tools named in the posting are Figma, GitHub, Slack, and Jira.
The product domain is public relations and press release distribution. PR TIMES operates the PR TIMES service as its core business and also develops early-stage SaaS businesses and media services. The products are used to help organizations and their employees publish official, primary information about corporate activities, products, and services.
The product team includes four product managers, consisting of three full-time employees and one contractor, and one UI/UX designer working as a contractor. The broader engineering organization has revised its development structure, development processes, ticket management, sprint practices, and documentation since fiscal 2021. The posting describes an established service supported by a newer development team, with technical study sessions held weekly, lightning-talk-style knowledge-sharing sessions, and internal ISUCON events. Younger members may participate in technology selection, platform design, and framework planning, and can consult experienced contractors.
The selection process consists of an application, document screening, two or three interviews or meetings, and an offer. Applicants may be asked to submit a resume and work-history document and complete a web aptitude assessment called FFS.
