Ask HN: Who Is Hiring (For Freelance/Part Time Remote Work) February 2011.

We're looking to hire a freelance (remote) designer (UI in form of PSD, Wireframes or HTML) to create a stunning design for our product. The product is a way for NHS patients to interact with their doctors and support groups, we are well funded and already have trials in place with the NHS - looking to launch Q3 this year. This product will be used by millions of people.<p>I need someone to help me craft the entire look and feel of our product, we'd love for you to involved in all aspects of design: from branding, to user experience, to designing the individual user interface elements on each part of our website. Our dream person is someone insanely passionate about web design, and wants to make software that is tradditionally terrible, awesome (medical software is usually worse than enterprise software).<p>This is our fourth hire, and our first non-developer role.<p>P.S. thank you pclark for writing/proof reading the above :)
