Design, evolve, and maintain system tokens, components, and patterns that are accessible, resilient, and scalable across platforms, championing inclusive design practices aligned with our value of Respect.
Audit existing product experiences to identify design debt, inconsistencies, and opportunities to improve system coverage, then take ownership of prioritising and delivering meaningful improvements.
Partner closely with engineering to ensure strong parity between Figma libraries and production code, collaborating through shared design-to-code workflows and AI-supported documentation practices.
Create clear, discoverable system documentation — including usage guidelines, do/don’ts, component states, motion, and error handling — that empowers teams to ship confidently and efficiently.
Advocate for safe-by-design and accessible patterns that reflect Bumble’s commitment to kindness, safety, and equitable experiences for diverse members.
Support and onboard product teams adopting the design system, facilitating alignment sessions, and responding thoughtfully to system support requests.
Contribute to the design system’s product strategy by helping define its vision, roadmap, and success metrics, including adoption, usability improvements, and reduced time-to-ship.
Use qualitative and quantitative feedback from designers, engineers, and members — alongside AI-assisted insights — to iterate, measure impact, and continuously improve the system with an agile mindset.

Requirements

Typically requires 7–9 years of experience using and maintaining or contributing to product design systems (frontend development is highly valued, though not a requirement or responsibility).
You’re comfortable using AI-powered tools to support design exploration, documentation, and system maintenance, and you’re curious about how AI can responsibly improve design system workflows over time.
You’re highly fluent in Figma, including components, variants, variable collections, libraries, and documentation workflows, and comfortable managing complex token systems (Tokens Studio experience is a plus).
You communicate clearly and collaboratively with designers and engineers, explaining trade-offs and rationale in a way that builds trust, alignment, and shared ownership.
You take ownership of your work end-to-end, collaborate with purpose across functions, and see ideas through from insight to impact, adapting plans with an agile mindset.
You bring deep empathy for diverse users and consistently design with inclusion, accessibility, and safety at the forefront, reflecting Bumble’s values of Respect and Courage.
You have strong experience designing and scaling component libraries, tokens, and patterns across multiple products or teams, balancing visual craft with usability and performance.
