About this role
Role overview Build the platform that keeps a shared design system connected to production products across mobile and web. You’ll work between design and engineering, turning detailed designs into reusable, accessible components while improving the tools and workflows teams use to ship them. The goal is to make product development faster and more consistent, with the system reflected in both design files and working code.
Responsibilities - Maintain the link between design system definitions and production implementations so they evolve together. - Build and support reusable components, design tokens, and shared foundations for iOS, Android, and web. - Partner with product designers to translate high-fidelity designs into polished, visually accurate components. - Collaborate with engineers on component architecture that is flexible, performant, accessible, and easy to adopt. - Improve design-to-code workflows through tooling, automation, documentation, and developer experience. - Establish and refine component APIs, naming, versioning, governance, and adoption; explore AI-supported workflows.
Requirements - At least five years of experience in design engineering or a related field. - Ability to work effectively across design and engineering, with strong communication and influence across disciplines. - Experience shipping high-quality mobile or web applications. - A portfolio or examples that show technical execution and thoughtful design systems work. - Curiosity about AI and emerging design tools, and an interest in improving how products are designed and built.
Nice to have - React Native or cross-platform component library experience; design token pipelines or system tooling; Storybook or similar documentation tools; Figma plugins or internal developer tools; or applied AI experience in design workflows.
Benefits and work setup - Remote-first setup, competitive compensation and stock options, medical, dental, vision, and company-paid life insurance, a 401(k) with company matching, flexible vacation, paid holidays, 12 weeks of paid parental leave, and a company-provided technology package.
