Design Engineer (Brand Team)

Responsibilities

• Own the design and frontend implementation of the Baseten marketing site.
• Ship landing pages, product pages, launches, and campaigns from concept through production.
• Improve the site continuously, finding and acting on opportunities to make it better rather than waiting for a redesign cycle.
• Partner with growth and product marketing to test messaging, layouts, and conversion improvements without sacrificing craft.
• Build polished interactions, motion, and details that make the site feel distinctly Baseten.
• Build and evolve the components, patterns, and design systems that let the team move quickly without lowering the bar.
• Turn complex technical products into clear, compelling web experiences.
• Prototype ambitious interactive and experimental ideas when a launch calls for it.
• Make it dramatically easier for the brand and marketing teams to get great work onto the internet.
• Set the bar for web design and frontend craft across the company.

Requirements

• Fluency in modern frontend development: React, Next.js, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript or TypeScript.
• Ability to move from Figma into code and own the final result in production.
• Deep attention to typography, layout, interaction, motion, and responsiveness.
• Systems thinking, with a track record of building reusable components and patterns instead of solving every page from scratch.
• Comfort experimenting, iterating, and using data to make a site more effective without turning it into a growth hack.
• Interest in technical products and the ability to make complex ideas feel clear without flattening them.
• Strong opinions about the web, and the ability to articulate why something works and why it doesn't.

Nice to Have

• Experience with motion design, animation, or WebGL.
• Experience with Three.js, React Three Fiber, shaders, or creative coding.
• Experience building developer-focused or deeply technical websites.
• Experience working with DatoCMS.
