## Requirements

Non-negotiables

-   Proven experience leading or managing designers
-   Strong portfolio showing both web/UI design and email design
-   Deep expertise in Figma
-   Expertise in CRO best practices - you design for conversion, not just aesthetics
-   Understanding of e-commerce UX, especially for Shopify
-   Familiarity with Shopify and Klaviyo as platforms - you understand their capabilities and constraints
-   Familiarity with low-code/no-code page builder tools like Replo, Instant, Framer, and Webflow
-   Baseline understanding of front-end development - you know how to design for developers and follow best practices that make implementation smooth
-   Comfortable being client-facing for creative conversations
-   Ability to give clear, constructive feedback that elevates others' work
-   Ability to balance hands-on design work with leadership responsibilities
-   Genuine passion for CPG brands and the subscription commerce space
-   AI-native mindset - you use tools like Claude to enhance your work, not replace your thinking

**Who are you for us?**

  
You're a leader and a maker. You can art direct a project, give feedback that makes work better, and still roll up your sleeves to design when needed. You care about elevating the people around you, not just your own work.

You're deeply curious. You're the kind of person who's always learning - not just during work hours, but because you genuinely enjoy getting better at your craft. You study what's working in e-commerce design, analyze why certain designs convert, and constantly sharpen your skills whether you're on the clock or not.

You're a true expert who also cares about the brands you're designing for. Subscription CPG excites you - you get why retention matters, you understand the nuances of how customers buy consumable products, and you want to be part of helping great brands grow.

You see AI tools as leverage to accelerate your work and expand what you're capable of, not shortcuts to avoid doing the thinking.

## Benefits

-   Remote position
-   You'll manage digital designers who float between conversion and retention pods
-   You report to the CEO (future: Creative Director)
-   We use Slack for communication, Linear for project management, and Figma for design
-   Fast-paced environment working with multiple subscription CPG clients
