We design brands and storefronts that convert. Our clients range from fast-moving startups to household-name DTC brands and Fortune 1000 companies.

Applications without live Shopify store examples will not be reviewed. Include the phrase "Figma Hero" somewhere in your application. (Optional but encouraged) A short note explaining one design decision you made that improved conversion. Show us taste, judgment, and real results. Requirements Non-Negotiable Requirements Candidates who do not meet ALL three of the following will not be considered: Agency experience — You must have worked at a digital or eCommerce design agency serving multiple clients simultaneously. E-commerce DTC design experience — You must have a portfolio of real, live eCommerce storefronts (not concept or Dribbble-only work). Shopify experience with live sites — You must have designed and shipped live Shopify or Shopify Plus stores. We'll ask for URLs.
