About the role

  • Design and build high-craft product experiences: Own key surfaces end to end, from concept through production. Use layout, interaction, and motion to make complex behavior feel simple and safe.
  • Work AI first with Cursor and Claude Code: Use LLMs, Cursor, and Claude Code as your starting point. Draft intent, explore implementations, scaffold components, and refactor with AI in the loop. Apply your own judgment to refine quality.
  • Prototype in code and validate with customers: Build interactive prototypes in React and TypeScript and test them with real users using self-serve research tools. Use what you learn to refine flows before full systemization.
  • Bridge design systems, product, and brand: Translate Ramp’s design principles into reusable components and patterns. Extend the design system so expressive, brand-aligned moments are easy to build and scale.
  • Reveal what our agents are doing without noise: Design patterns that show what AI and automation are doing on behalf of customers. Use hierarchy, copy, and motion to earn trust while keeping the default experience simple.
  • Champion performance and accessibility: Ship work that is fast, accessible, and robust. Pay attention to semantics, focus states, reduced motion, and Core Web Vitals. Partner with engineers to debug and optimize over time.
  • Share AI-native workflows: Document prompts, patterns, and workflows you use in Cursor and Claude Code. Share them with designers and engineers to raise the bar across the team.

Requirements

  • Strong experience across both design and front-end engineering, with ownership from idea to shipped interface
  • Fluency in React, TypeScript or JavaScript, semantic HTML, and modern CSS
  • Active use of tools like Cursor and Claude Code, with clear opinions on how to get high-quality output
  • A portfolio that shows high visual and interaction craft in live experiences or working prototypes
  • A systems mindset and interest in building reusable components and patterns
  • Care for performance, accessibility, and reliability as part of craft
  • Clear written and verbal communication, and comfort pairing with designers, engineers, and marketers
