What You’ll Do

Conversion Rate Optimization & Analytics-Led Iteration

  • identify friction across the web and app funnel (landing → PLP → PDP → cart → checkout → post-purchase) and design tested solutions
  • Read and interpret analytics, heatmaps, session recordings, and A/B test results; translate findings into design hypotheses, variants, and measurable improvements
  • Partner with Ecommerce, Growth, and Development teams to define success metrics for each design and report on outcomes; own the analytics read for design performance and adapt live designs based on the data
  • Balance conversion goals with brand integrity, ensuring optimizations never dilute the experience

Brand-Forward Experience & Motion Design

  • Design elevated, editorial-quality experiences across web (homepage, campaign landing pages, collection and product pages, storytelling modules) and the brand mobile app, expressing a premium fashion/lifestyle/golf brand consistently across desktop, mobile web, and app
  • Own motion and interaction design for the site and app: micro-interactions, transitions, scroll-driven storytelling, product reveals, and video/animation integration
  • Set and hold a high bar for taste, typography, art direction, and visual detail; act as the guardian of brand expression in the digital channel
  • Build and evolve the site and app design system and component library in Figma so brand quality scales consistently across every page, screen, and release

Community & Engagement Experience

  • Design the site's and app's community and engagement touchpoints: member/loyalty experiences, UGC and creator integrations, event and product-drop moments, reviews, editorial content, and personalization
  • Create interaction points that turn shoppers into repeat participants in the brand and connect the digital experience to retail, events, and social channels

Development Partnership and Technical Capabilities

  • Collaborate with front-end engineers and platform developers on our Shopify Liquid storefront and mobile app; understand coding, platform, and performance limitations and design creative solutions that work within or around them
  • Deliver production-ready specs, prototypes, motion references, and documentation for engineering handoff; participate in design QA before and after release
  • Prototype in code or AI-assisted tools where useful to validate ideas quickly and communicate motion and interaction intent precisely

Research, Innovation & Trend Intelligence

  • Research digital experience innovation (fashion, luxury, sport, entertainment, tech, culture) and synthesize findings into opportunities that push the site experience forward
  • Run lightweight user research, usability tests, and competitive audits; present insights and forward-looking experience concepts to leadership and cross-functional partners

What You’ll Bring

  • Bachelor's degree in Design, Interaction Design, HCI, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience
  • 6+ years of digital product / web and app design experience with at least 3 years in ecommerce or DTC, ideally for fashion, lifestyle, luxury, or sport brands
  • A portfolio demonstrating shipped, brand-forward ecommerce experiences, motion/interaction design work, and measurable CRO outcomes. (Portfolio required at application; case-study walkthrough required at interview)
  • Hands-on experience partnering with front-end engineering on Shopify (Liquid theme development required; ability to operate in headless/composable architectures as well)
  • Exceptional visual taste and craft: typography, layout, color, art direction, and attention to detail at the level expected of a premium brand
  • Motion design proficiency: After Effects, Figma prototyping, Lottie/Rive, Jitter; ability to define motion principles and hand off implementable specs
  • Expert in Figma and the Adobe Creative Suite; comfort with prototyping tools (Framer, Protopie) and AI-assisted design/prototyping tools
  • Deep understanding of UX principles, responsive and mobile-first design, native iOS/Android app design patterns, information architecture, and WCAG accessibility standards
  • Knowledge of HTML/CSS/JavaScript concepts, web performance, and platform constraints; able to hold technical conversations and find creative workarounds
  • Fluency with analytics and experimentation tools (GA4, Hotjar/Contentsquare, Optimizely/Convert); ability to read data, form hypotheses, and iterate
  • Strong understanding of ecommerce funnel best practices, and merchandising logic
  • Excellent communication and presentation skills; able to present and defend design rationale to senior stakeholders and incorporate feedback constructively

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
