ABOUT THE ROLE

Seqera is seeking a Design Engineer to sit at the intersection of web development and design. We’re looking for someone with strong visual taste to help build our creative initiatives across web and brand. When it comes to design and code, we’re looking to work with experienced people who can pick up any problem and solve it. At its core, Seqera is a tool for scientists where interactions and small details matter. We expect a broad set of design skills and the ability to create high-quality designs, interactions, and prototypes.
Seqera is a company full of people who know the value of good design. In this role, you will help communicate Seqera’s story — what we’re building and why it matters. You’ll work with our team of designers and a web developer. We’re looking for someone who will not only enjoy developing for the web, but also designing great experiences as well.
While this position reports to the Design Director, you’ll end up collaborating across the company including folks from the Design, Product, Marketing, and Engineering organizations. You’ll find yourself working on everything from our events presence, to our main web presence, to bridging the gap between our web presence and our platform.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

• You will be responsible for building beautiful, responsive web experiences that grow and build our brand
• Implement creative animations and interactions in code
• Explore visual design in Figma and translate it to web-native experiences
• Refactor/redesign older experiences
• Build ‘connective tissue’ across various parts of our web presence, ensuring easy navigation for users and a richer experience as we scale the complexity of what we do
