Adaptive Path Is Hiring Interaction Designers & Information Architects

It’s true, AP is looking for interaction designers and information architects, specifically the kind that can really get their geek on. Maybe you’re a typography junkie who likes to program? And you get a quiet thrill from sketching storyboards, constructing wireframes and building prototypes? And your dreams are packed with sliders, task flows and jog dials? And you just flat out live to create things that delight and empower users?

If that sound anything like you, then AP would love it if you’d send your resume, along with some thoughts about working with us and a link to your online portfolio (if appropriate), to jobs AT adaptivepath DOT com.

This Is Your Life, Julia Houck-Whitaker!

A big round of welcomes to Julia Houck-Whitaker, AP’s latest, greatest project manager. Julia rounds out the team with an amazing combination of skills and experience: She comes to us by way of Bolt | Peters, where she led qualitative and quantitative user research projects for clients such as Oracle, Hallmark and Greenpeace. She’s also worked within a wide range of industries, everything from travel and leisure to the legal realm. And when she isn’t helping to develop and manage our events, Julia spends her time knitting, cheering on the Denver Broncos and, oh yeah, running marathons. Marathons!
