About xc4Xa

xc4Xa is the fastest growing deodorant brand in the US. Our team is composed of about 30 insanely smart people working together in person in downtown Durham, NC. Our office is rather open with many private niches, and our energy level is HIGH.

About the Role

Our website is where people decide whether they believe us. You are going to make it better every single week.You are a designer first. You understand why someone scrolls past one page and buys from the next, and you can put that understanding into a layout, a headline, a button. Most of our traffic is on a phone, so that is where you start.

You will also get your designs into the browser yourself. You do not need to be a developer. You do need to be willing to learn enough HTML, CSS and Liquid to ship your own work, and you need to be excited about using AI tools to get there. Cursor, Claude Code, whatever gets a mockup live fastest. We will teach you the stack. We cannot teach you taste or curiosity. Everything you ship gets measured. You will learn what conversion rate optimization actually means in practice: forming a hypothesis, building the test, reading the result, and shipping the winner.

If you already know CRO, great. If you don’t yet but want to be exceptional at it, this is the place to learn.

What You Will Do

Frame the test, build it, launch it, read it, ship the winnerWatch session recordings and let what people actually do decide what you design nextMake every page pixel clean on every screen size, phone firstKeep the design system tight so the site stays consistent as it growsCatch your own broken states, slow loads and crooked copy before a customer does
