About the Role

The Senior Web Designer position at Ramp is a unique opportunity to own and elevate the company's web experience end-to-end. This role is at the intersection of brand, product, and growth, requiring a high level of craft, speed, and systems thinking. As a Senior Web Designer, you will be responsible for shaping how Ramp presents itself on the web, from marketing pages and landing experiences to product marketing surfaces and interactive storytelling.

The role is deeply collaborative and hands-on, requiring close partnership with engineering and growth teams to take projects from concept through production. You will utilize modern tools, including LLMs like Claude, to rapidly explore ideas, generate variations, and prototype before moving into execution.

What You Will Do

  • Own web design end-to-end, including marketing pages, landing pages, product marketing surfaces, and interactive experiences
  • Build and maintain a scalable web design system, including layout patterns, component libraries, motion language, and brand guidelines
  • Lead web redesigns and overhauls from concept through production, partnering directly with engineering and growth
  • Utilize LLMs like Claude to explore layouts, generate copy variations, and prototype interactions before moving to Figma
  • Set the visual bar for typography, spacing, color, motion, and hold it across every surface that ships
  • Collaborate with brand, product, and growth teams to ensure the web experience is coherent with the product experience
  • Share systems, patterns, and prompts that raise craft quality across the organization
  • Continuously evolve the system to meet the needs of various teams, building a system that enables anyone at Ramp to create beautiful, effective web experiences at scale

  • 7+ years of web design experience, with at least one full site overhaul or design system build owned as an IC
  • A portfolio that shows range: web systems, brand, landing pages, interactive storytelling
  • Deep typographic and layout sensibility, with opinions about grids, whitespace, and hierarchy
  • Experience working directly with front-end engineers, not just handing off specs
  • Ability to move fast without sacrificing craft, knowing when to polish and when to ship
  • Deep understanding of brand systems and brand identities
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to work effectively in a remote environment
  • Passion for innovation and staying up-to-date with the latest design trends and technologies

How to Stand Out
