Full-time
Remote
United States

We are seeking a professional Web Designer / UXUI strong project management and creative direction skills. You will participate in both strategy and execution of website projects (e-commerce, marketing website, platform design, etc) to ensure standards and guidelines are met. The ideal candidate is highly organized, detail oriented, and a great communicator. You will be responsible for coordinating all design matters related to client projects, ensuring smooth collaboration between members of multidisciplinary teams, and delivering projects on time.

Designity is a subscription-based collaborative creative platform that enables creatives and businesses to collaborate more effectively through unique and innovative model. This collaborative approach has convinced both small and large companies, including Calendly, Kung Fu Tea, and Marriott Hotels, to use Designity for their design and marketing efforts instead of traditional, costly, and inefficient alternatives.

We are transforming the creative industry, moving away from outdated and ineffective marketing and design methods. Companies typically hire in-house designers, which is costly, time-consuming, skill-limiting, and requires substantial supervision. Working with traditional design and marketing agencies offers an alternative but at a high cost. Marketplaces  like Upwork and Fiverr claim to offer  a more affordable solution, but their model lacks reliability and optimization for creative services, causing frustration for businesses.

While we still operate like a startup (it can get very fast-paced at times) we are in full scale- up mode.
