Senior Visual Designer

Who we are

Jellyvision ALEX®, is on a mission to improve lives by helping people choose and use their benefits. We are raising the bar—for benefits and the employee experience (for our employees and those of the customers we serve) – by scaling personalization, compassion and an earnest intent to be helpful in all that we do. 

Jellyvision people are a group of creative problem solvers who use good judgment, give each other honest feedback, engage in real debate, and snack frequently. We are curious, hungry, and humble—because we know this is how we’ll continue to make an impact. We’re kind, biased towards action, and sweat the details to create great experiences for those we serve.  

We are an inclusive, human-first workplace. Respect and trust for each other are foundational, and our equitable total rewards offerings support the lives and holistic well-being of our unique people. At Jellyvision, expect career experiences that challenge you, empower you to have a direct impact on our mission, and enable you to learn, try, and do while having fun along the way.  

While the product roadmap is still taking shape, here are some values that will be front and center in all that we do:

GUIDING PRINCIPLES

1. Simplicity and Clarity at the Core: Transform the often overwhelming and confusing world of Medicare into an intuitive, user-friendly experience that breaks down complex terms and options into clear, actionable steps.
2. Personalization for All: Recognize the unique needs of each beneficiary by delivering tailored advice that considers their health status, financial situation, and lifestyle, ensuring they choose the Medicare plan that best fits their individual circumstances.
3. Trustworthy Guidance: Serve as a reliable source of information, leveraging up-to-date data and expert insights to ensure that beneficiaries are making decisions based on accurate, relevant, and unbiased information. When we have limitations, we name them.  When there’s ambiguity in a choice for a user, we make sure they know it. And we play no favorites with any vendor in the ecosystem. We serve the user and the user alone.
4. Empathy and Support: Understand the emotional and psychological aspects of making healthcare decisions, offering compassionate support that helps alleviate anxiety and build confidence during the decision-making process. We speak to “you,” our user, and bring personality, humility, humanity, and honesty into every word we share. And fuck it - we are eager to please, embracing joy and refusing to be boring out of respect for our users’ furrowed brows.
5. Continuous Innovation: Stay ahead of the curve by continuously improving ALEX Medicare, integrating feedback from users, and adopting new technologies and methodologies to enhance the user experience and ensure the tool remains relevant in an ever-evolving healthcare landscape.
6. Joy. In service of our users and colleagues alike.

We’re looking for a creative powerhouse with a broad range of design expertise and a passion for innovation to help us bring our Medicare product to life. 

As the team’s founding Visual Designer, you’ll play a pivotal role in expressing and evolving the ALEX brand while creating a distinct product identity.

You’ll be involved in every stage of development, from conception and brainstorming all the way through to final implementation. 

We’re looking for a tech-savvy designer with a strong point of view who can help us define (and articulate to others) the visual qualities that help our products stand out in an industry plagued by stock imagery and Corporate Memphis.
