🚀 Role Summary

• Drive specialized data scraping workflows by providing critical thinking, domain expertise, and layout skills for web-ready designs.

📝 Enhancement Note: This role is positioned within an AI + human hybrid system, demanding a blend of creative design expertise and an understanding of how to translate AI-generated or human-provided inputs into effective web interfaces. The "operations" aspect comes from managing the workflow between AI agents and human designers, ensuring efficient handoff and quality control for web assets.

📈 Primary Responsibilities

• Translate brand assets and social media visuals into responsive web layouts, structured components, and sections suitable for developer or no-code tool implementation.

• Prepare and securely package production-ready files, including organizing Figma frames, exporting assets, and detailing specifications for seamless developer handoff.

• Ensure absolute visual consistency between interactive web pages, static PDFs, and social media materials.

• Enforce layout quality standards through systematic verification of responsiveness, proper spacing, clarity, and adherence to modern web trends prior to delivery.

📝 Enhancement Note: The emphasis on "systematic verification" and "preparing production-ready files" highlights the operational rigor expected in this design role, moving beyond pure aesthetics to structured output management.

Required Skills:

• Web & UI Design: Deep proficiency in Figma for creating scalable, responsive web layouts, auto-layout components, and comprehensive design systems.

• Conversion-Driven Layouts: Expertise in structuring high-converting, pitch-style landing pages with a strong eye for clarity, spacing, and modern design trends.

• Developer Handoff: Solid understanding of how to prepare, spec, and package digital assets for efficient implementation via developers or no-code platforms (e.g., Webflow, Framer).

• Cross-Platform Consistency: Ability to seamlessly translate core brand aesthetics across varying touchpoints, ensuring web pages match existing social materials and pitch decks.

• English Proficiency: Upper-intermediate (B2) or above (required).

• User-Centric & Conversion-Minded Approach: A structured, user-centric, and conversion-minded approach to design.

Preferred Skills:

• Experience with no-code platforms such as Webflow or Framer.

• Familiarity with AI-driven workflows or hybrid AI + human systems.

• Experience in digital marketing design or visual communications.

📝 Enhancement Note: The requirement for a portfolio with specific web design examples, and the explicit mention that applications without it will not be considered, underscores the practical, results-oriented nature of this role. The emphasis on Figma proficiency and developer handoff points to the operational efficiency required.
