About the role

  • Design, build, and maintain our core design system, including components, tokens, interaction patterns, and documentation.
  • Develop scalable UI frameworks that empower engineers to ship consistent, consumer-grade experiences quickly.
  • Partner directly with product designers to translate UI/UX patterns into reusable, production-ready components.
  • Prototype and experiment rapidly, validating concepts before they become part of the system.
  • Lead frontend best practices across accessibility, performance, animation, layout, and responsiveness.
  • Improve UI consistency and reduce regressions through systematic design, strong abstraction, and thoughtful tooling.
  • Collaborate with engineering teams to integrate design system components into workflows and codebases.
  • Create documentation, guidelines, and governance processes that help teams adopt and extend the system effectively.
  • Raise the overall quality bar for visual polish, interaction fidelity, and frontend craft across the company.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of frontend or UX engineering experience, ideally in consumer or product-focused companies.
  • Strong ability to build scalable component libraries, design systems, or reusable UI frameworks.
  • Excellent sense of visual and interaction design, with an eye for spacing, typography, motion, polish, and details.
  • Fluency in modern JavaScript/TypeScript, Next, React, CSS systems, and component architecture.
  • Experience collaborating closely with designers throughout the entire product development process.
  • Ability to prototype quickly and translate ambiguous ideas into tangible interfaces.
  • Deep understanding of accessibility (WCAG) and web performance considerations.
  • A systems mindset seeing patterns, simplifying complexity, and designing for long-term reuse.
  • Strong communication skills and ability to influence product direction and UI standards.
  • A passion for building delightful, consumer-grade user experiences.
  • Founder’s mindset - ownership, speed, scrappiness, resilience, bias toward action.
