  • Creating original graphic designs (e.g., images, sketches, and tables).
  • Building page navigation buttons and search fields.
  • Collaborating with developers to ensure designs are accurately implemented.
  • Identifying and troubleshooting UX problems (e.g., responsiveness).

  • Experience conducting user research, usability testing, and incorporating user feedback into design decisions.
  • Strong understanding of mobile-first and responsive design principles.
  • Familiarity with front-end development technologies (HTML, CSS, etc.) to ensure the feasibility of design implementation.
  • Strong visual design skills, including typography, color theory, and composition.
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to work effectively in cross-functional teams.

Benefits - We don’t call them perks, they’re just part of what makes working at Gigster great.

  • World-class network. Be part of a network with the most talented people in the world.
  • Amazing cutting-edge projects. Pick the projects from F500 companies that you’re interested in.
  • 100% remote and global. Live your best life, wherever that may be, and never lose out on career opportunities because of it.
  • Flexible work hours. There is a time to overlap with the customer’s timezone, but most of the time, we work asynchronously and don’t care when you’re online, just that you deliver great results.
  • Flexible offerings. Choose how many hours you want to work and how much you want to earn.
  • Swag! Because who doesn’t love swag?

The Gigster Talent Network is a highly curated set of the best software developers in the world. It’s not easy to become part of this select network - but when you do - you will work amongst the best from Silicon Valley and around the world.

Our model is unique in the software development industry. We do the hard work of finding the US clients and scoping their projects - and you get to choose from a large variety of ‘Gigs’. You can choose Gigs that fit your schedule - from 10, 20, or 40 hours a week. You also get to choose your pay rate. All projects are staffed with a project manager, full stack team, QA, and DevOps.

All of our projects are for top-tier US companies and are delivered with the highest quality. Projects range from developing NFT marketplaces to VR imaging for medical use to large AI/ML projects. We even produce a case study for every project delivered - so you can take that with you as part of your portfolio.

In parallel - you will have access to an exclusive and energized network of the world’s most skilled experts. Community members collaborate inside and outside of Gigs - as well as at local community events, online hackathons, competitions, etc. The Gigster Talent Network is more than a simple marketplace - it’s truly an exclusive club.

Are you talented enough to be in the club?
