What It's Like to Work at YipitData

• Ownership That Matters: You’ll lead high-impact projects with real business outcomes
• Rapid Growth: We compress years of learning into months
• Merit Over Titles: Trust and responsibility are earned through execution, not tenure
• Velocity with Purpose: We move fast, support each other, and aim high—always with purpose and intention

About The Role

YipitData is looking for a Lead Web Designer & Developer to own the design and development of our public-facing websites. This is a hands-on role for someone who can move fluidly from user experience and visual design to responsive implementation in Webflow. You will establish the systems, templates, and technical foundations that allow our teams to publish high-quality content quickly and consistently—without relying on engineering for routine website work. You will help evolve our website into a scalable growth platform that supports YipitData’s businesses, strengthens our brand, and creates clear, intuitive experiences for our audiences. As the company’s in-house website design and development expert, you will partner closely with Design, Brand and Communications, Demand Generation, Corporate and Investor Marketing, Product, and business stakeholders across YipitData. You will also help us build internal website expertise and reduce our long-term reliance on external agencies.

• Working hours: This is a fully remote role with a standard working schedule of approximately 9 am - 5 pm. Because you will collaborate with teams and stakeholders across both East and West Coast time zones, you will need the flexibility to occasionally accommodate meetings in a variety of time zones.

As Our Lead Web Designer & Developer You Will

• Own the end-to-end design and development of YipitData’s public-facing websites, from early concepts and user flows through launch and ongoing iteration.
• Translate business objectives, brand strategy, content requirements, and growth opportunities into clear information architecture and compelling web experiences.
• Design and build responsive, accessible, production-ready pages, templates, components, and interactions in Webflow.
• Create and maintain a scalable website design system that improves consistency, quality, and speed across YipitData’s web properties.
• Serve as the technical owner of our Webflow environment, including CMS architecture, reusable components, custom code, integrations, permissions, documentation, and publishing workflows.
• Partner with Demand Generation and Marketing to support SEO and AEO, conversion optimization, experimentation, analytics, lead flows, and campaign launches.
• Collaborate with Brand and Communications to ensure that every website experience reflects YipitData’s visual identity, narrative, voice, and editorial standards.
• Work with business and product teams to turn complex offerings—including data, research, and AI-powered products—into intuitive, credible, and engaging digital experiences.
• Establish website quality standards and conduct ongoing reviews for usability, accessibility, responsiveness, performance, and cross-browser compatibility.
• Manage website projects and priorities across multiple stakeholders, communicating tradeoffs and moving work forward in a fast-paced environment.
• Develop self-service templates, guidance, and governance that enable non-technical teams to publish and update content safely.
• Collaborate with external agencies and specialized partners when needed while steadily increasing YipitData’s in-house capabilities.

This is a remote-friendly opportunity that can sit in NYC (where our headquarters is located), one of our office hubs, or anywhere else in the US. However, depending upon where the remote work is performed, income could be subject to New York State tax withholding.

You Are Likely To Succeed If

• You have 5+ years of professional experience designing and building high-quality marketing or corporate websites, with a portfolio demonstrating both strong UX/visual design and hands-on implementation.
• You are highly proficient in Webflow, including CMS architecture, reusable components, responsive layouts, interactions, and custom code when needed.
• You have strong front-end fundamentals, including HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, and can independently troubleshoot technical and implementation issues.
• You have deep experience with responsive design, information architecture, design systems, accessibility standards, browser compatibility, and website performance.
• You are comfortable owning work from initial request through discovery, design, stakeholder alignment, development, QA, launch, and iteration.
• You combine a high visual bar with pragmatic execution—you know when to refine a solution and when to ship, learn, and improve.
• You are an effective cross-functional partner who can translate among design, marketing, technical, and business stakeholders.
• You use qualitative feedback and quantitative signals to improve user experience, content discoverability, conversion, and overall site performance.
• You communicate clearly, manage competing priorities thoughtfully, and take responsibility for outcomes rather than waiting for detailed direction.

Nice-to-have experiences include

• Designing websites for B2B technology, data, analytics, research, financial services, or other complex products.
• Technical SEO, AEO, structured data, content discoverability, or large-scale CMS publishing.
• Conversion-rate optimization, experimentation, analytics, and lead-generation workflows.
• Figma and component-based design systems.
• Connecting Webflow with analytics, marketing automation, CRM, forms, APIs, or other third-party platforms.
• Working with multiple brands, audiences, or business lines within one organization.
• Collaborating with (and eventually reducing reliance on) external design and development agencies.
