SPLYZA Inc. is looking for a chief UI/UX designer to add to our team in Hamamatsu, Japan. This position will be responsible for designing for our iOS/Android/Web application.
What's our mission?
Our slogan is, “Providing tools to help amateur athletes maximize their game”, and we have developed simple apps that anyone can use free of sensors or special devices. Currently our main focus is building a communication and video analysis platform for sports clubs and school teams. Using image recognition and machine learning techniques we will bring video analytics to every level of athlete and team.
Why are we doing this?
We live for excitement, and we strive to build a company founded on that feeling. The more athletes and teams improve, the more fun and excitement they can experience. That is the world we want to help create.
How we are achieving this?
Our team of engineers is unique for our roster of non-Japanese, sports-loving members (America, Honduras, UK, Vietnam). We communicate half the time in Japanese, half the time in English. We won the grand prize at the Microsoft Innovation Award in 2015. In 2016 we took part in KDDI’s Mugen Lab startup accelerator.
