UX/UI Designer

About the role

The Design team at Cro Metrics is expanding to meet rising demand across CRO experimentation, website design and development, lifecycle marketing, and paid media. This role is part of a strategic hiring plan to bring on reliable, high-quality design talent that can operate with consistency and speed across our full service offering and strengthen our creative, strategic, and technical design capabilities.

Responsibilities

• Translate hypotheses and creative direction into polished, pixel-perfect deliverables, on time and on budget.
• Execute across multiple service lines — CRO experimentation, website design, lifecycle marketing, and paid media.
• Manage a high volume of deliverables without sacrificing quality.
• Interpret written briefs, hypotheses, and requirements to develop polished, production-ready designs in Figma.
• Support rapid experimentation cycles by delivering production-ready variations quickly and iterating based on results.
• Ground design decisions in data — experiment results, analytics, and conversion principles.
• Prepare and organize design files for clean developer handoff.
• Leverage AI tools throughout your workflow to improve both the speed and the quality of your output.
• Collaborate with program managers, strategists, and engineers to ensure alignment on intent, feasibility, and brand standards.
• Adapt quickly to new client brands and ways of working.
• Contribute to and maintain component libraries and reusable templates that improve team efficiency over time.

Requirements

• Experience in UI/UX design, digital production design, or a similar role (2–4 years for the Production level; see below for Senior).
• Strong Figma proficiency — fast, organized, clean, well-structured files with proper components, auto-layout, and naming conventions.
• A portfolio demonstrating production-quality work across web, email, and paid media — craft, consistency, and range.
• Comfort working within existing brand systems and constraints rather than always designing from scratch.
• Experience with conversion-focused design — landing pages, user flows, experiment variations, or similar.
• Comfort letting data guide design choices — you understand that at an experiment-led agency, results and evidence inform the work.
• Ability to manage volume across multiple concurrent deliverables, clients, and channels without quality dipping.
• Strong attention to detail — pixel-perfect output, consistent spacing, correct typography, adherence to specs and design systems.
• Clear communication — you ask thoughtful questions, flag issues early, and keep stakeholders informed.
• Receptive to feedback — you take critique well, and actively seek it out to sharpen your work and close the loop with strategists, clients, and peers.
• Self-directed and reliable — you manage your time well, meet deadlines, and don't need to be micromanaged.

Qualifications

• 5–8+ years in UX/UI design, product design, or a senior role blending strategic thinking with hands-on craft.
• A portfolio that shows how you think, not just what you make — research insights, strategic framing, multiple explorations, rationale, and outcomes.
• Proven experience leading design on complex, multi-stakeholder projects (website redesigns, product strategy, or multi-channel experience design).
• Design systems expertise — you've built, maintained, or significantly contributed to scalable design systems.
• Strong technical design fluency — front-end constraints, responsive design, accessibility (WCAG), and productive working conversations with engineers.
• Client-facing confidence — present concepts, explain reasoning, handle feedback gracefully, and build trust with senior stakeholders.
• Experience with data-informed design — comfortable using analytics, experiment results, and u
• Educational background in design, computer science, or related field.
