Sr. Web Designer - Growth Foundations

The team

We’re a multidisciplinary team of designers and coders who bring front-end web experiences to life. We craft not just beautiful interfaces but functional, high-performance experiences that feel effortless in the browser. From fluid animations to pixel-perfect layouts, we obsess over the details that make the web feel intuitive and engaging.

We need the rare hybrids: designers who don’t just envision, but build. Whether it’s with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, or cutting-edge animations, you’ll be at the helm of your designs from concept to execution.

If you love the challenge of designing for the web-where creativity meets performance and interaction—we’d love to have you on the team.

The Opportunity

• Lead the creation of essential web experiences and marketing pages that are designed to drive customer engagement and conversion.

• Create high quality, delightful experiences with designers, researchers, product managers, content specialists, and engineers

• Balance business objectives, customer needs, insights and technical constraints to produce data-informed outcomes

• Take concepts from research, to exploration, to prototypes, to production

• Actively participate in design reviews both seeking and giving meaningful and supportive feedback

• Take full accountability for your work and exercise consideration of every detail

• Contribute to the definition and expansion of new and existing design systems

• Utilize data to drive brand strategy and product growth; analyze and interpret data to create compelling concepts and presentations, sharing insights with executives to shape and propel our brand forward.

What you’ll bring

• A Portfolio that Speaks Volumes: Show us the best of your portfolio which highlights your commitment to design quality, standards, and optimization.

• Technical Design Insight: More than mastering Figma, you possess a keen understanding of how design integrates with code. Familiarity with HTML & CSS is essential, and experience with React + JSON is a welcome bonus but not required. While we don't expect you to write production-ready code (it’s certainly a bonus if you can), your awareness of what's technically feasible in web, along with optimization for performance, is vital to our team's success.

• Progressive Enhancement and Graceful Degradation: You design a solid baseline that works, then layer enhancement on top. You account for reduced motion, slow connections, failed loads, empty and error states, and the days JavaScript doesn't arrive.

• Understanding of UI/UX for front-facing consumer websites: Proficient in creating user-centered designs that align with marketing goals, with a keen understanding of user experience (UX) and user interface (UI) principles.

• Information Architecture Awareness: Demonstrated ability to structure and organize web content, creating intuitive navigation and positive user experiences.

• Adherence to Standards: A firm grasp of W3C standards, ensuring that designs comply with industry guidelines and best practices for accessibility, usability, and cross-browser compatibility.

• Collaborative Spirit and Open-Minded Approach: Thrive in our evolving foundational team, with an emphasis on continuous learning and egoless collaboration.

• History of Satisfied Collaborations: Demonstrate a track record of successful partnerships with colleagues who would eagerly work with you again.
