implementation and an exceptional end-to-end customer journey.
• Use insights from analytics, A/B testing, and fan feedback to refine and optimize store
performance.
• Translate brand and album aesthetics into cohesive digital experiences aligned with campaign
visuals and creative direction.
• Advocate for best-in-class UX practices, accessibility, and responsive design across all digital
touchpoints.
• Work closely with developers to ensure the feasibility and implementation of design solutions.
Bring your VIBE
• 3+ years of experience in UI/UX design, ideally in e-commerce, entertainment, or consumer
brands.
• Strong portfolio demonstrating responsive design, visual design systems, and UX problemsolving.
• Excellent proficiency in Figma/prototyping tools and Adobe Creative Suite
• Good working knowledge of Shopify and/or other D2C e-commerce platforms
• Understanding of digital merchandising, conversion optimization, and checkout flow best
practices.
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, campaign-driven environment with shifting priorities.
Nice to Have
