Our platform solves key pain points with today’s data and analytics tooling, and empowers anyone to explore data using natural language, with or without code, on trusted context. Thousands of customers like Ramp, Figma, Stubhub, Anthropic, and Gamma love Hex for our beautiful UI, agentic superpowers, and boundless flexibility.\nHex has raised over $100M from leading investors like Sequoia, a16z, Snowflake and Amplify. With office hubs in San Francisco and New York, as well as remote team members throughout the US and UK, we’re a high-agency team that ships fast and has fun doing it. Check out our Intro to Hex video and employee handbook to learn more about what it’s like to work at Hex.\nMembers of the Brand Design team bring the Hex brand to life across every customer and employee touchpoint. As our Web Designer, you will lead the Web pillar within Brand Design - owning the strategy, UX/UI, art direction, and execution across our website, documentation surfaces, and other web surfaces.\nYou’ll operate as both a player/coach and eventually hire + mentor a small web design team as we scale.\nAbout the role\nOwn and execute the design and experience of Hex’s web surfaces, including our website, documentation site, product launches, and future digital experiences.\nThis is first and foremost a highly hands-on design role. You’ll own work from concept through final execution, setting an exceptional bar for visual design, UX, typography, interaction, and craft.\nYou’ll also play a major role in how Hex tells its product story. Working closely with Product Marketing, Content, and Product, you’ll help determine how our product is represented across marketing surfaces: what we show, what we simplify, what deserves interaction or motion, and how design can make complex ideas feel clear and compelling.\nWhile broader web and content strategy is shared across Marketing, this role will own the design and UX strategy of our web experiences, bringing a strong point of view on how structure, interaction, visual hierarchy, and product storytelling come together.\nWhat you’ll do\nDesign and web experience\nOwn and execute the design and UX of Hex’s website, documentation site, campaign experiences, and future web surfaces.\n\nCreate exceptional, highly crafted digital experiences from early concept through shipped execution.\n\nEstablish and maintain visual quality, patterns, interaction principles, and consistency across Hex’s web ecosystem.\n\nContinually evolve core surfaces rather than treating the website as a collection of one-off redesign projects.\n\nPartner with Marketing on broader web priorities while owning the design perspective on hierarchy, UX, interaction, and how users experience the Hex story.\n\nBalance strong systems thinking with the ability to create bespoke moments when the story calls for something more distinctive.\n\nProduct launches and storytelling\nOwn and execute the design expression of major product launches alongside Brand and Product Marketing.\n\nTranslate complex product capabilities into clear, compelling, and memorable visual stories.\n\nParticipate early in launch and content planning, bringing a design perspective to how a story should unfold rather than simply executing against a finished brief.\n\nDevelop a strong point of view on how Hex’s product should be depicted across marketing, from product UI and screenshots to demos, diagrams, illustration, conceptual visuals, and interactive experiences.\n\nHelp determine what needs to be shown, what can be simplified, and which ideas benefit from demonstration rather than explanation.\n\nCreate repeatable storytelling patterns that allow our product to feel coherent across the homepage, product pages, launches, campaigns, events, and content.\n\nEnsure major product moments feel visually clear, differentiated, and unmistakably Hex.\n\nMotion and interaction\nUse motion and interaction intentionally to clarify ideas, demonstrate product behavior, and make Hex feel alive.\n\nCreate lightweight motion, product animations, micro-interactions, transitions, and interactive storytelling moments.\n\nEstablish a strong point of view on where motion adds meaning versus decoration.\n\nExplore new ways to make product stories more dynamic and experiential across the web.\n\nPartner with motion specialists or external collaborators when an idea requires deeper production support.\n\nDesign and UX strategy\nBring a strong point of view on how UX, visual hierarchy, interaction, and narrative work together.\n\nHelp define how different audiences encounter and understand Hex across our marketing surfaces.\n\nPartner with Brand, Content, Product Marketing, and Product on content planning, identifying where design can make a story clearer or more compelling.\n\nHelp determine how information should be structured and sequenced, what deserves emphasis, and what format is best suited to telling a particular product story.\n\nInfluence how Hex represents an increasingly broad product platform without losing clarity or personality.\n\nIdentify opportunities to evolve Hex’s digital design language and how we show up in the world.\n\nUse research, performance signals, experimentation, and design intuition to continually improve the experience.\n\nHands-on development\nTake your own designs all the way into production using HTML, CSS, React/Next.js.\n\nPrototype and ship interactive experiences where working directly in the browser produces a better result.\n\nUse AI-assisted design and development tools to prototype, explore, and ship high-quality experiences faster.\n\nExperiment with emerging AI tools and workflows, with strong judgment about where they improve the work and where craft still needs a human hand.\n\nCollaborate closely with engineering partners on larger or more technically complex work.\n\nCare deeply about implementation details and ensure the shipped experience reflects the intent of the design.\n\nHelp establish front-end patterns and workflows that make high-quality execution faster and more repeatable.\n\nBalance creative ambition with performance, accessibility, maintainability, and speed.\n\nTeam and creative influence\nInfluence the processes, standards, critique rituals, and creative culture of the Design team.\n\nHelp establish stronger ways of working across Brand, Product Marketing, Product Design, Content, and Engineering.\n\nBring external inspiration and new thinking into how Hex approaches digital design and product storytelling.\n\nIdentify where additional design, motion, or engineering support could have the greatest impact.\n\nAbout you\nYou might be a great fit if you:\nHave 8+ years of experience across web, visual, UI, or digital product design.\n\nHave exceptional hands-on craft across UX, typography, interaction, and visual systems.\n\nAre a strong product storyteller, particularly for technical, B2B, developer, data, or product-led companies.\n\nThink strategically about design and UX and can connect creative decisions to audience, narrative, product, and business goals.\n\nHave a strong eye for motion and interaction.\n\nCan ship production-quality work in HTML, CSS, and React/Next.js.\n\nAre curious and capable with AI-assisted design and development workflows.\n\nOperate autonomously and are comfortable owning work from concept through launch.\n\nThe salary range for this role is: $170,00 - $240,000\nIn addition to our unique culture, Hex proudly offers a competitive total rewards package, including but not limited to, market-benched salary & equity, comprehensive health benefits, and flexible paid time off.\nThe salary range shown may be a reflection of additional factors such as geographical location and skill ranges/levels we’re open to. Placement in the salary range will be decided upon completion of the interview process, taking into account factors like leaving room for growth, internal fairness & parity, your demonstrated skills, and the depth of your experience.
