Ecommerce Designer ( UI/UX)Remote (Europe preferred) | Performance-Focused Shopify Agency | $2500 - $3000 USD per month
About That WorksThat Works is a performance-focused Shopify agency of around 25 to 30 people. We work with high-growth DTC (direct-to-consumer) ecommerce brands across conversion rate optimisation (CRO), website design, landing pages and A/B testing. Most of our clients are on monthly retainers, and almost everything we design exists for one reason: to help a brand’s online store make more money. We use AI heavily across the business, and we expect everyone on the team to as well.
What we work on:CRO for high-growth DTC brands on ShopifyLanding pages and funnels, from advertorials and listicles to quiz funnelsA/B tests, product page improvements and full website design
Why This Role ExistsWe run our delivery through small teams we call pods. Each pod has an account manager, a designer and a developer, and it handles all the work for a group of 5 to 8 clients. We currently have five pods. You’ll be the only designer in your pod, which means you own the design for every brand it looks after. This isn’t a general graphic design job. It’s performance design: CRO, landing pages, A/B tests and funnels, where every decision should be one you can explain in terms of how it helps a store convert.
The RoleAs our Ecommerce Designer, you’ll design anything a Shopify store needs, for several brands at once, often switching between them in the same day. Work is briefed in by strategists and account managers, with priorities set by your pod’s account manager. Your designs are handed to developers to build and presented to clients by the account manager. You’ll report to MD, who acts as a line manager for the design team.
Design for PerformanceDesign sections, widgets, full pages, product page improvements, A/B test variations, look and feel exercises and every type of landing pageMake every design easy to use, on brand and built to convert, and be able to explain each decision through a UX and CRO lensApply the same principles to more brand-led clients, such as fashion brands, without losing sight of conversionLanding Pages & FunnelsBuild advertorials, listicles, quiz funnels and other landing pages that performKnow what separates a good landing page from a bad one: structure, section length, time to the buy area, calls to action, imagery and information architectureBrand Ownership & Design SystemsOwn and maintain the design language for every brand in your podKeep each brand’s design system consistent, and help improve a brand’s look where the client is open to itSpeed, Accuracy & HandoverWork fast and accurately across a high-volume, varied workload. We bill clients by the hour, so speed and precision both matterContext-switch quickly between brands, and between quick tasks and bigger projects in the same weekHand over clearly so developers build designs as intended and account managers can present them with confidencePush back on unclear briefs, take feedback well and iterateImproving How We DesignHelp improve our tools, templates and shared librariesShape how the design team uses AI, including our own AI-assisted page builder
How We WorkYou won’t be client-facing in the sense of running calls or presentations, but you will be in client Slack channels to answer design queries directly. Day to day, the rhythm looks like this:Daily pod standup: 15 minutes on Google Meet with your account manager and developersSlack for day-to-day communication, internally and in client channelsClickUp for task management, with time tracked against every ticketFriday all-team call with the whole agencyTools: Figma, plus our own AI-assisted page builder
What You’ll Bring:Must-havesA strong ecommerce UI/UX portfolio, ideally Shopify and DTC brands, showing pages and sections designed to convert, not just to look goodLanding page and funnel experience, and a real understanding of what makes them performSolid CRO fundamentals, and the ability to explain why a design should convertGreat written and spoken EnglishAn AI-forward mindset: you’re already using AI in your design process and keen to push it furtherPixel-perfect attention to detail, and the speed to juggle several brands at onceConfidence working with briefs, developers and feedback, and pushing back when something isn’t right
Nice-to-havesExperience with no-code tools such as Replo, Framer or Webflow (a strong plus; Figma experience on its own is fine)Agency experience across multiple clients, or in-house experience at a DTC brandA/B testing experience, ideally with results you can talk aboutCopywriting ability, or a strong eye for copyBuilding or maintaining design systemsAn interest in marketing and paid social, and how ads connect to landing pages
Probably not the right fit ifYour portfolio is all brand, print or illustration, with no ecommerce or conversion-focused workYou can explain how a design looks, but not why it worksYou prefer a slow, highly precious way of working that needs weeks per pageYou’re resistant to AI or to changing how you work
