About your team

Your e180 team:

At e180, one of our core values is learning (“Be a knowledge gardener”). We cultivate human potential by enabling our people to learn from one another. We love to create rewarding learning experiences for our employees, clients, and our community and want to increase the impact of collaborative learning around the world. We have invented Braindate, our flagship product, which helps people around the world, connect with each other and share their knowledge.

 

Your department:

The product team designs technological solutions and experiences that enable and enhance self-directed and collaborative learning. While we believe technology can be magic, we don’t believe apps solve problems in and of themselves. We empathize with our users, clients, and e180 teams, in order to design and develop solutions that bring value to them. We work iteratively and course correct when needed to achieve desired outcomes, focusing on key problems to solve. We care deeply about our mission and impact, and, in the decisions we make, do our best to balance short vs long-term priorities, quality, speed, scalability… passion, and reason. 

 

Your Role

The global pandemic has allowed us to reinvent ourselves and take advantage of growth opportunities in new markets. We have segmented our services to meet specific needs into 4 segments; Event, Enterprise, Community, and General Public. 

As a member of the product team, you are involved in all phases of product development, focusing on specific mandates of the product team. Before delving into the creative process, you make sure you have a solid understanding of the vision, objectives, and desired outcomes. You leverage research and adopt processes that help the team create experiences, anchored in e180’s mission, that address user needs and naturally integrate into their contexts. You create opportunities to conduct user research and testing, seek expertise across e180 and propose approaches that contribute to the team’s success and work environment

 

Your responsibilities and tasks may include:

  • Partner with the Product Owner and Innovation Team to understand the business objectives and context, and own stages of the design process.
  • Produce low to high fidelity mockups and user flows for web and mobile, while testing, validating, and iterating throughout the process.
  • Include developers during the creation process to help surface potential technical limitations.
  • Make the product come to life by crafting engaging experiences and interactions, in accordance with e180’s brand, values, principles, and personality.
  • Maintain a scalable design system that will help the team deliver consistent and coherent experiences in collaboration with the other company’s designers.
  • Contribute to finding tools, standards, and processes that contribute to the designers, and Product team’s, performance and engagement.
  • Provide support and guidance to other Design initiatives spearheaded by other designers across e180 (Product, Marketing, Experience, etc.)
  • Do design QA before releasing new features in collaboration with the QA team.
  • Gather feedback from testing your design before going into development and share meaningful findings with the Product Owner and Innovation Team. 
  • Continually update their knowledge about product design trends and UX best practices.

 

Some extra qualities that will set you apart:

  • Do you have the capacity to diverge and converge in a timely manner, and tackle ambiguity? Awesome! You will help us!
  • Do you have an interest in human experience and emotions in design? You will have a significant impact at e180!
  • Are you comfortable with a collaborative process that crosses between teams? You are the person we are looking for!
  • Do you have a talent for illustration, knowledge of artistic design? You will be welcomed into our team with open arms!

  • Learning experience design
  • UX for AI

About e180

e180 was founded as a social enterprise, and today, e180 is a certified (and award-winning!) B Corporation. This means that we’ve made a public commitment to leveraging our business to make a measurable difference in the world. Our flagship product, Braindate, has evolved over the years, but our mission remains the same: unlocking human greatness by helping people learn from one another.

 

Why you’ll love it here

We are value-driven.

Both our work and our company culture are rooted in a set of key beliefs and commitments that we came up with and revisit together. Our values influence everything from our decision-making processes to the ways in which we celebrate one another. Here are the values that drive us: 

  • Be a knowledge gardener: 
    • Share knowledge, grow through learning, and plant the seeds of human greatness.
  • Inspire collaboration: 
    • Bring your creative brainpower and change lives. Let’s make a difference together.
  • Be fearless:
    • Be audacious and autonomous, trust uncertainty, forge your own path, and embrace the journey.
  • Lead with love:
    • Be kind to yourself and others, and create conditions where everyone can succeed through diversity, equity and inclusion.

 

Our team’s well-being and growth are a top priority.

We designed our environment to prioritize our team’s happiness and health—from our rituals (like our monthly game nights, regular celebrations, and bi-annual company-wide retreats) to our space (a bright, plant-filled office in the heart of Montreal’s Mile End) to the healthcare that we offer to all employees.

 

You’ll get to learn. 

Each team member gets to choose a personal Learning Quest to pursue. You’ll receive a budget, personal support, and ample time (100 hours a year) to explore your Quest. 

 

You’re in charge of your time—and where you spend it. 

We encourage you to self-manage your work schedule to best accommodate your life and commitments. Remote work is also an option for all team members. 

 

You’ll get to travel. 

Paris, Doha, Berlin – we’ve activated Braindate at iconic events all over the world. Once it’s safe, our team will have the opportunity to travel to support and experience the impact of Braindate productions across the globe. 

 

The great benefits that set us apart: 

e180 wants to offer the best conditions, the best environment, the best benefits in addition to the salary. While doing meaningful work is rewarding in itself, we also offer the following programs and benefits to all our full-time employees:

  • Unmeasured Vacation: We encourage a good work-life balance.  We offer a vacation policy that allows you to be away when you need it and independently manage the impact your absence may have on your team, clients, projects and company goals. 
  • Insurance: Health care benefits are available to all employees.
    • We also provide a health management account of $ 500 / year which could be allocated for what you want (massage, dental, gym, etc.)
  • Potential annual bonuses based on business results; 
  • Remote workspace improvement bonus;
  • Learn Quest Program ($1000);
