Graphic Designer / UI-UX Designer

About Us

Webflare is a small, fast-moving startup building software for the auction industry. We help auctioneers catalog items, present them beautifully online, and work faster with modern, easy-to-use tools. Our product is called AuctionWriter. You’ll join a tight, hands-on team where designers have a real voice in product and brand decisions.

The Role

We’re looking for a multidisciplinary designer who is as comfortable polishing a landing page as they are mapping user flows in Figma. This role blends product/UI-UX design with marketing and light creative production. You’ll switch contexts frequently and collaborate directly with the founder and a small engineering team.

What You’ll Do

• Product & UI-UX
• Design flows, wireframes, and high-fidelity UI for web apps
• Create component libraries and design systems in Figma
• Partner with engineering to ship pixel-accurate, usable interfaces
• Brand & Marketing
• Produce ads, social graphics, email and web assets
• Create simple illustrations and iconography aligned to our brand
• Contribute to website layout/landing page design
• Front-End (nice to have)
• Translate designs into clean HTML/CSS where appropriate
• Generalist Startup Support
• Light video editing for tutorials, product launches, and ads
• Social media content scheduling/asset prep
• Customer support (phone/email) with empathy and clear communication

Must-Have Skills

• Strong Figma proficiency (auto-layout, variants, styles, components, prototyping)
• Portfolio demonstrating web app UI-UX and marketing design
• Visual design fundamentals: layout, typography, color, hierarchy
• Ability to scope work, manage your own deadlines, and communicate tradeoffs
• Comfort jumping between product work and quick marketing tasks

Nice-to-Have Skills

• HTML/CSS for front-end implementation
• Basic motion/animation or video editing (Premiere, CapCut, or similar)
• Customer support experience in a software environment
• Illustration/icon design
• Experience in, or familiarity with, the auction industry

Traits That Do Well Here

• Self-managing, proactive, and comfortable with ambiguity
• Systems thinker who documents decisions and maintains a tidy Figma file
• Low-ego collaborator who seeks feedback early and often

Work Setup & Benefits

• On-site in York, PA with occasional hybrid flexibility
• 35 hours/week, set daytime schedule with some flexibility
• $27/hour, paid biweekly
• Small, supportive team with direct access to decision makers
