[Hiring] Head of Web Design @Remote Talent LATAM

Role Description

We are seeking an exceptional Head of Web Design (AI-First Design Engineer) to take full ownership of the agency's web department. Reporting directly to the Founder, this is an executive player-coach seat:

• Lead brand discovery with practice owners, craft visual identities, and directly design and build high-converting websites using an AI-first workflow.
• Bridge the gap between creative director, client-facing brand consultant, and front-end design engineer.
• Take projects from initial discovery to pixel-perfect, interactive production using modern visual builders or AI-assisted code.
• Ensure clients fall in love with a digital home that genuinely represents their brand, driving measurable patient bookings and rapid deployment.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead brand discovery calls with practice owners, turning founder stories, ideal patient profiles, and aesthetic tastes into written brand narratives and distinct visual directions within 3 to 5 business days.
• Personally design and build complete client websites from scratch to live launch with high fidelity, interaction, and responsiveness, choosing the optimal platform per client (WordPress/Elementor, Webflow, Framer, Wix Studio, or AI-coded stacks).
• Direct authentic photography and generate custom, art-directed AI imagery (using tools like Midjourney or Flux) for treatments, textures, and clinic scenes that avoid looking generic or stock-like.
• Partner hand-in-hand with the internal SEO Lead to co-own site architecture, balancing high-converting UX with technical search intent, schema, internal linking, and fast page speeds.
• Design custom brand identities, logos, and comprehensive brandbooks as paid client offerings.
• Lead, mentor, and evaluate the web department (overseeing seats including a Senior Web Developer, AI Web Creative Director, and Web Delivery Lead) with full hiring and team structuring authority within budget.
• Retrain and elevate the web department to operate with AI-first production tools and workflows, scaling capacity to ship 4 to 6 client sites per month.
• Triage and clear existing operational backlogs, establishing a permanent intake, QA, and delivery system to keep projects moving on schedule.
• Enforce launch scorecards for every new build, validating client satisfaction, speed benchmarks (Core Web Vitals), indexing health, and active conversion/booking tracking.

Qualifications

• 6+ years of hands-on experience designing and building websites end-to-end, with a proven track record leading a small production or design team (2 to 4 people).
• True Design Engineer execution: ability to conceptualize high-end designs in Figma and build them out directly with motion and interaction in Webflow, Framer, WordPress (Elementor), Wix Studio, or clean AI-assisted code.
• Power-user mastery of modern AI workflows (such as Claude, Midjourney, Flux, v0, and Figma AI) integrated naturally into daily production.
• Professional verbal and written English with the executive presence to command brand discovery calls, read client nuances, and present concepts persuasively to U.S. medical founders.
• Proven creative craft and design range, capable of moving smoothly between luxury editorial, warm community-focused, and clinical-modern aesthetics.
• Solid foundation in UX conversion optimization and SEO essentials (semantic site structures, mobile responsiveness, Core Web Vitals, and conversion paths).

Requirements

• Salary: Competitive compensation ranging from $5,000 to $7,000 USD per month, based on design engineering depth and leadership experience.
• Executive Impact: Direct leadership of the agency's web division with full authority over team structure, hiring, and tooling.
• Contract: Independent Contractor.
• PTO: 2 weeks of paid time off + 1 week of sick leave annually.
