Job Description

About the Company

NetElixir has spent over 22 years helping more than 1,000 ecommerce brands grow through real-world strategy, analytics, and exceptional execution. Today, we are bringing that experience into an AI-first future.

About the Role

We are hiring a sharp, Web Designer to bridge the gap between creative vision and functional web development. You won't just be making things look "pretty"—you’ll be designing intuitive user journeys that convert.

Since this is an immediate hire, we need someone who can jump into active projects, collaborate with our dev team, and deliver high-fidelity prototypes under tight deadlines. If you enjoy working with ecommerce brands but want to sit on the solution side rather than inside a single retailer, this role was built for you. We’re transforming from a performance marketing agency into what we believe the digital agency of tomorrow SHOULD be — a company where AI doesn’t replace people, it empowers them. A place where curiosity meets capability, and experimentation drives growth. This role isn’t for someone looking for just another job. It’s for someone who wants to be part of a bold reinvention — helping shape conversations, challenge the status quo, and build something enduring.

Responsibilities

  • Own the visual architecture, look, and feel of Shopify websites — from homepage to checkout for DTC and e-commerce clients.
  • Design all landing pages with a strong focus on conversion, brand alignment, and user flow.
  • Join client pitch calls to audit existing websites, identify UI/UX weaknesses, and present compelling redesign solutions.
  • Serve as the primary point of contact for select clients. Focus on actively listening to understand their brand, goals, performance KPIs, and industry thoroughly. Oversee and manage design projects, and progress to ensure alignment with their objectives.
  • Work daily alongside developers and project managers to bring designs to life, ensuring pixel-perfect handoff and smooth implementation.
  • Create and maintain design systems, component libraries, and brand style guides for client projects.
  • Use AI-powered tools (Claude, ChatGPT) and design platforms (Figma, Canva, Adobe Suite) to accelerate design workflows and ideation.
  • Conduct UX audits on client websites and translate findings into clear, actionable visual recommendations.

Qualifications

  • 1– 2years of experience in web or UI/UX design, preferably in an agency or e-commerce context.
  • Strong proficiency in Figma. Comfort with Canva and the Adobe Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, or XD).
  • Familiarity with Shopify's design ecosystem; themes, sections, and store structure.
  • Proven ability to identify usability issues and communicate design rationale clearly to clients.
  • Comfortable presenting ideas and pitching design solutions to clients on calls.
  • A collaborative mindset, you thrive working closely with developers and PMs, not just in isolation.

Good to have:

  • Basic understanding of HTML/CSS — enough to have meaningful conversations with developers about feasibility.
  • Experience designing for conversion rate optimization (CRO) — understanding what drives clicks, scroll, and purchase.
  • Motion design or micro-interaction experience (Lottie, Framer, or Figma prototyping).
