Sarasota, FL — While much of the tech industry continues to navigate widespread layoffs and uncertainty, Sarasota-based web design and SEO agency Rounded Digital is taking a different approach.

The company announced plans to hire a new Digital Marketing Coordinator, with a targeted start date of July 1, 2026, as part of its continued growth and increasing client demand.

Founded in 2016, Rounded Digital specializes in building high-performing websites and SEO strategies for service-based businesses, with a strong focus on construction and trade industries. The company currently works with over 100 active clients across the United States and has built a reputation for delivering measurable results through organic search.

“We’re not seeing a slowdown,” said co-founder Justin Harned. “If anything, we’re busier than we’ve ever been. That’s a direct reflection of the industries we work with. Our clients are growing, and they need more support.”

Rounded Digital operates with a fully in-house team of U.S.-based, W2 employees, a model the company has maintained since its inception. In an industry where outsourcing and white-label fulfillment are common, the company has doubled down on internal hiring to maintain quality and accountability.

The new hire will support ongoing website launches, search engine optimization initiatives, and content production. Rounded Digital currently follows a structured production schedule, launching new client websites on a consistent weekly basis.

“We’ve built our business around execution,” Harned added. “We don’t overcomplicate things. We focus on building websites that convert, writing content that ranks, and helping our clients bring in more leads. The demand for that hasn’t gone anywhere.”

As many tech companies continue to reduce headcount in response to shifting market conditions, Rounded Digital’s expansion highlights a different segment of the industry—one driven by small business growth, local service demand, and performance-based marketing.

“Our clients don’t care about trends in Silicon Valley,” Harned said. “They care about leads, revenue, and growth. As long as we continue delivering on that, we’ll keep growing alongside them.”

The company expects the new hire to increase internal capacity and support its ongoing pipeline of projects heading into the second half of 2026.
