Job Description

Kito Health has developed the Kito Health App which is a free online medical health advice tool that helps parents and caregivers make timely and informed decisions about their child’s symptoms. The app is targeted towards families living in the informal settlements in Nairobi.

Kito Health is looking to enhance the child health advice and content within the Kito Health app through the creation of a ‘Knowledge Base’ - this would be accessible, engaging, and parent-friendly content while keeping simple and understandable to members of the community we are targeting with the Kito Health app.

You will work as an App Designer (UX/UI Designer) closely with our Medical Leads, Social Media team (Kenya & UK), and international App Development team to deliver implementation-ready wireframes for upcoming features, design and prototype the new in-app Knowledge Base, and drive UX workstreams for our app’s product pivot.

● Proficiency in Figma, Sketch, Adobe XD, or similar design tools.

Commitment:

The project will take place with a minimum of 6 months with a potential to extend. We are expecting individuals to start as soon as possible.

You will be working full-time in the first couple months, then there will be room to make it flexible over the duration of employment. Exact hours will be open to discussion and will likely vary over the project needs and designer disponibility.

Location: Remote working

Salary: To be discussed and aligned with experience.
