Build a Premium Website for AI SaaS Product (Next.js, Design-Led)

We need a premium marketing website built for an AI-powered career agent product. IMPORTANT: A previous AI-assisted attempt at this resulted in a generic, "AI-slop" looking site with weak/clichéd typography and no real design personality. We are specifically looking for someone with genuine design taste who can either design well themselves or curate/direct AI tools effectively to avoid that outcome. Please read the full brief before applying. SCOPE: - 4 pages: Home, Features, Pricing, About - 3 legal page shells (Privacy Policy, Terms of Service, Impressum) - Full copy, brand colors, design tokens, and page-by-page content structure are already written and provided TECH REQUIREMENTS: - TypeScript, Next.js, built as a static export (no SSR, no backend/API routes — fully static site) - Deployed via GitHub Actions (custom workflow, not a third-party hosting integration) to an existing IONOS webspace — we will provide repo access and hosting credentials - Mobile-first responsive design (most traffic will be mobile) WHAT'S ALREADY PROVIDED: - Full written brief with all page copy, design system (colors, gradients, typography direction), and technical specs - Brand colors, logo assets - Clear "what to avoid" guidance (generic glassmorphism clichés, templated card grids, weak typography) USE OF AI TOOLS: Welcome and expected at this budget — we just need a human with design judgment directing the process and doing final quality curation, not a single unreviewed AI output. BUDGET: $500 fixed price TIMELINE: [add your preferred timeline, e.g. 1-2 weeks] TO APPLY, PLEASE INCLUDE: 1. 2-3 portfolio links to dark-mode, premium-feeling websites you've built or designed (SaaS preferred) 2. A one-line answer: what's one thing that makes a dark-mode SaaS site look "cheap" vs "premium"? We'll review the attached brief with you in detail once we start — this posting is a summary.
