ABOUT 99GAMERS

Born off a Reddit post, 99Gamers is a fast growing community-driven marketplace for gamers to buy and sell video games. So far we’ve had over $800,000 worth of games sold, 80,000 members and 36,000 games listed. Recently we’ve been experiencing higher growth (10,000+ members in last week) and have a clear path to continue and increase this growth.

DESIGN

IRC has a reputation as a chat tool for hackers, and a long history to go with it, but it's not always been associated with brilliant design. We've set out to fix that by giving IRC a beautiful and intuitive home on the web and mobile devices.

Our focus is on functional elegance, clarity, and making complex things obvious. And it's time to step it up a notch. We're looking for someone to help us make IRC more appealing to those who've never used it to collaborate before, while still making sure the old hands feel at home.

We need to respect the IRC community, and the limitations of the medium, while making bold decisions that question the conventions of the last 25 years. We're not building something completely new, trendy, and unproven. IRC is still thriving for a reason, and you'll be responsible for better aligning it with the way people communicate online today.

Ideally, you'll have several years of experience designing for the web and mobile, with a strong graphic design background. A working knowledge of HTML/CSS for in-browser prototyping would be a significant bonus.
