Job Summary

We are seeking a dynamic and innovative Frontend Developer to join our vibrant tech team and grow with us!

We are seeking an entry- to mid-level Front-End Developer / Web Designer to join our development team. This role combines strong visual design skills with hands-on HTML and CSS development, with a focus on creating polished, responsive websites and user interfaces.

This is a full-time hybrid position based in our Rye Brook, NY office. The schedule is three days per week in the office and two days working remotely. Candidates should be comfortable working in person, collaborating with developers and other team members, discussing design ideas, receiving feedback, and working through projects as a team.

A portfolio is required. All applicants must provide a link to a portfolio demonstrating relevant web design and front-end work.

What You’ll Work On

• New website designs and redesigns.
• Responsive layouts for desktop, tablet, and mobile.
• Reusable front-end components and page sections.
• Visual improvements to existing websites and internal tools.
• Front-end collaboration with PHP developers and other team members.

Duties and Responsibilities

• Design and build responsive interfaces using HTML and CSS.
• Translate concepts, references, and project requirements into polished web layouts.
• Improve existing designs, templates, and front-end code.
• Make thoughtful decisions about typography, spacing, color, imagery, hierarchy, and overall visual presentation.
• Create reusable components and maintain visual consistency across projects.
• Test layouts across browsers, devices, and screen sizes.
• Troubleshoot CSS, responsiveness, and rendering issues.
• Collaborate with developers and other team members throughout the design and implementation process.
• Use Git to manage code changes and collaborate on projects.

Skills and Qualifications

• Strong visual and web design skills with excellent attention to detail.
• Strong HTML and CSS skills.
• Experience with responsive web design.
• Strong understanding of typography, spacing, layout, color, and visual hierarchy.
• Ability to take rough direction, references, or requirements and develop them into a finished design.
• Ability to recognize and improve designs that feel dated, cluttered, inconsistent, or unfinished.
• Strong understanding of Flexbox and CSS Grid.
• Experience working with and improving existing websites and codebases.
• Familiarity with browser developer tools and front-end debugging.
• Basic JavaScript familiarity.
• Experience with Git or similar version control tools.
• Strong communication and problem-solving skills.

This Role Is a Good Fit For Someone Who

• Enjoys both designing websites and building them directly in HTML and CSS.
• Has a strong eye for design and notices small visual details and inconsistencies.
• Can work from rough ideas rather than requiring a completed mockup for every project.
• Enjoys improving existing websites as well as creating new designs.
• Is comfortable discussing ideas, receiving feedback, and refining work through multiple iterations.
• Enjoys working collaboratively with a team in an office environment.
• Can also work independently and communicate clearly about progress, questions, and blockers.

Additional Strengths

• Experience with Figma, Photoshop, Illustrator, or similar design tools.
• Experience with design systems or reusable UI components.
• Familiarity with accessibility and basic SEO principles.
• Experience working with PHP-based websites or dynamically generated templates.
• Familiarity with React or other modern front-end frameworks.
• JavaScript experience beyond basic front-end implementation.

About the Position

This role involves a mix of new design work, updates to existing websites, and ongoing front-end improvements across a variety of projects. You’ll work closely with other members of the development team to create responsive, visually consistent websites and interfaces.

We value strong design judgment, attention to detail, collaboration, and the ability to balance visual quality with practical implementation.
