Rivalry has been pushing the boundaries on what an esports betting product can be, and we’ve been doing it well. As our user base grows and we enter new global regions, the demand to create new and better products is increasing.

Our future Product Designer is as much an artist as a problem solver. You will serve as a key member of the Product Design team, ideating, designing, iterating, and creating sick-ass designs that will shock and rock the world.

Tell me more, you say?

We’re looking for someone who:

  • Sees the world in terms of user experience and solution design. If you've ever spilled coffee, blamed the user experience of your coffee mug, then ranted about how you could have designed it better, this job is probably for you.
  • Is naturally creative, artistic and yearns to inject fun and surprise into their designs.
  • Can go beyond boring white minimalist apps, and bring style and personality to their work.
  • Has an extreme attention to detail, and isn’t happy until their design is pixel perfect. You make stuff look gooooooood.
  • Is tech literate. You don’t need to know how to code, but you can talk to devs in their terms, even if they roll their eyes at you.
  • Is super organized and cares deeply for best practices.

What you will be doing:

  • Build a close and collaborative relationship with your agile squad: your product manager, product design lead, and software developers, to define and achieve product objectives, creative approaches, and deliverables.
  • Work from broad business objectives to fully design new features and products for web and mobile.
  • Use analytical skills and strategic perspective to identify trends & recommend solutions that will help improve the user experience.
  • Work with your fellow designers to conceptualize new wild product ideas.
  • Create beautiful high fidelity UI mockups and functional prototypes.
  • Contribute to building and maintain our design system and UI components kits.
  • Put together functional specs to help guide the development team in execution of your designs.
  • Provide guidance to the dev team in implementing your designs.
  • Provide guidance and constructive critique of your fellow designer’s work.
  • Test implementations to ensure the execution meets the quality of the design.
  • Relentlessly seek user feedback and validation; rework your deliverables accordingly.

Skills to bring the thrills:

  • 3+ Years of experience (minimum) as a UX design, UI design, Product design or whatever the kids are calling it these days.
  • A bachelor's degree in Design or Digital Media or similar field.
  • Stellar portfolio demonstrating creative thinking, smart problem solving & visual creativity
  • Proficiency in rapid prototyping software: Like Sketch, Figma, Adobe XD. We use Figma, FYI.

Why work here

  • We're a true tech startup that’s having our breakout moment! Just a few years ago we were working out of a basement, and now were public, expanding across the globe and making a massive impact. We haven't lost that entrepreneurial, get-it-done spirit!
  • Creativity is our most valued asset. Rivalry’s success has been built on the idea of: Build it ourselves, built it better. The sports betting industry has become a bit of a dinosaur, and we’re here to make something new, something wild, something that appeals to the next generation of players. New and weird ideas please!
  • Integrity is key to everything we do. We work in an industry that has a stigma for being a bit scummy. That's not us. Our mission is to build a place that’s safe, fun, fair and inclusive for our users and our employees. We believe that creating a great and unique experience is the best way to be successful and is more sustainable than trying to grift users for a quick buck.
  • We understand your value. We offer a competitive salary and total rewards package including a comprehensive benefits package, unlimited vacation and stock options (we believe it's important for our people to own a piece of the company and share in our success). Also free video games!
  • Work where you get your best work done. Whether that’s in our office (when it’s safe enough), in the comfort of your own home, or travelling the world! Our offices are located in Toronto, but a large portion of our company works remotely across 17 different countries.
