Prototype Website Builder for Early-Stage Startup (High-Quality MVP)

We’re looking for a product-minded UX/UI + full-stack developer who can build a clean, fast, functional prototype website for an idea-stage startup.
If you're only good at templates or drag-and-drop builders, don’t apply.
We need someone who understands how to turn a raw concept into a functional, user-friendly prototype that looks credible to investors and early users.

What We Need Built

A prototype website (MVP) with:

A modern landing page explaining the problem, solution, and core value

Clean UX/UI — minimal, premium, non-generic

Interactive sections (example: mock dashboards, clickable flows, or demo screens)

Basic backend setup (if needed — authentication, forms, database)

Responsive design (mobile + desktop)

Fast load speed and clean code structure

Easy handover for future development

This is not a full product yet — it is a functional prototype that demonstrates the concept clearly and convincingly.

Your Responsibilities

Convert founder vision into a real, working prototype

Ask the right questions — not just “follow instructions” blindly

Propose better UX flows instead of copying random websites

Build the entire prototype using a tech stack you’re confident in (React / Next.js preferred)

Create 2–3 design variations for critical screens

Keep the design clean, modern, premium, and brand-ready

Ensure everything is easily editable for future expansion

Required Skills

UX/UI design (Figma or similar)

Front-end development (React / Next.js / Vue)

Back-end basics (Node.js, Firebase, Supabase, etc.)

API integration (basic or mock API)

Responsive design

Clean, modern visual design

Strong communication + product thinking

Bonus Skills (not required but preferred)

Experience building MVPs for startups

Understanding of investor demos

Branding + design sense

Animation / micro-interactions

No-code experience (Webflow) but only if combined with real design skill

What We Will Provide

Concept summary

Reference websites

Vision + core features

Branding direction (or we can define it together)

Deliverables

Full prototype website

Source code + Figma files

Working demo link

Documentation for handoff

Optional: Brand kit (logo + colors + typography)

Who Should Apply

Developers who understand product — not just coding

Designers who understand clean UX — not templates

People who’ve built prototypes/MVPs for startups

People who can take incomplete ideas and shape them into reality
