Cutting up a comp isn't "design," it's implementation. I have never seen a frontend web development position where slicing comps wasn't a core component of the job description. If the primary languages they listed in the description are HTML, CSS, and JS, then this is probably what they imagined you'd be doing from the beginning. On the other hand, if you a "programmer" proper and the primary languages listed are Ruby, Python, PHP, Java, etc., then I could understand a little frustration. But keep in mind - if you're working in web and doing any frontend work at all, most employers will (rightly) expect that you have these skills. I hope the position you've found works out for you, or that you're able to find something better that you'd prefer. Good luck!
