Après Nail has innovated the nail market as the creator of Gel X. Our mission is to improve nail industry standards and the lives of nail artists by providing innovative products that help both them and their services thrive. Our nails are seen everywhere, from the Met Gala to the Oscars to your local nail salon. The Gel X revolution is real, and we're looking for our next great team member!

We’re looking for a Web Designer who loves turning insight into impact—someone who will continuously optimize two high-traffic e-commerce experiences by finding friction, fixing issues, and designing cleaner, faster paths to purchase. In this role you’ll blend customer-first UX with a marketing-minded approach to conversion, using analytics (funnels, heatmaps, behavior) to guide smart design decisions.

You’ll design and iterate on campaign landing pages, evergreen pages, and modular templates in Figma, evolving a scalable design system while staying mobile-first and accessibility-forward (ADA). You’ll also partner closely with developers and marketers to ensure builds are realistic for Shopify/headless environments, and you’ll occasionally jump in to implement light UI updates (Shopify themes, WordPress, Liquid)—using AI tools to move faster, test ideas, and elevate the craft.

If you’re detail-obsessed, collaborative, and energized by a fast-paced studio where constant improvement is the product, you’ll thrive here. Experience with Shopify is a must.
