About Shally

Shally is an early-stage AI storytelling platform that helps children and families co-create magical fairytales with illustrations, narration, and unique heroes. We’re building an experience that’s playful, safe, and inspiring for kids — while giving parents a tool they trust.

What you will do

  • Design intuitive mobile-first experiences for children aged 4–10 and their parents.
  • Translate creative product ideas into polished Figma flows and prototypes.
  • Collaborate closely with the founder to refine the design system.
  • Balance aesthetics, usability, and age-appropriate interaction patterns.
  • Contribute to feature concepts, UX structure, and user flows.
  • Work async-first in quick design loops and iterative feedback.

What we are looking for

  • 3+ years of experience in UI/UX or product design.
  • Strong portfolio of mobile apps or playful, creative interfaces.
  • Prior work in EdTech, kids apps, games, or family-focused products.
  • Good grasp of accessibility, readability, and visual storytelling.
  • Confident in Figma and mobile design systems.
  • Able to communicate clearly and give/receive feedback openly.

Bonus points

  • Experience designing for AI-assisted workflows or character builders.
  • Understanding of how kids think and play — from real testing or parent perspective.
  • Motion design or illustration skills.

What we offer

  • Freelance contract (10–15 hours/week), flexible and remote.
  • Work on an early product with creative freedom and strong vision.
  • Collaborate directly with the founder, no middle layers.
  • Paid test task if selected to proceed.
  • Opportunity to expand scope into full product ownership over time.
