Original posting

Soundslice | Product designer | REMOTE | Full time Soundslice (https://www.soundslice.com/) is "living sheet music." We make web-based, responsive music-notation technology that you can listen to and interact with. The goal is to be the best way to learn any piece of music. See https://www.soundslice.com/demo for an example. It's one of the coolest HTML5 web apps in the world that's an actual business and not a project. When I originally posted it to HN, it stayed at the top of the homepage for the better part of a day and was universally praised: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4790636 Soundslice is a small (two-person) business -- you'd be the third. It's proudly bootstrapped and makes money. We're looking for a designer. Somebody who's good at the whole design process -- understanding problems, creating mockups, implementing in HTML/CSS. You must also be a musician at some level. WHY WORK HERE: * You'd work on an amazing product that helps people learn music. * Design is front-and-center of our product. Much of its value is pure design/UX. * Excellent work/life balance. * You'd work with me (one of the people who created Django, plus some other stuff; see holovaty.com). I'm an experienced developer and can teach you a lot, if you're open to it. More info is at https://www.soundslice.com/blog/53/job-product-designer-at-s... and feel free to email me (Adrian Holovaty) at adrian@soundslice.com. [No, we are not hiring a programmer. Designers only, please!]
