About the role

  • Lead the implementation of a Shared Design Library with reusable React components, design tokens (colors, typography, spacing), and UX patterns used across applications
  • Define the foundations of the library: naming conventions, versioning strategy, theming, accessibility standards (WCAG), and contribution guidelines
  • Set up and maintain component documentation (Storybook, MDX) with usage guidelines and live examples
  • Establish governance for proposing, reviewing, deprecating, and evolving components in partnership with UI/UX Designers and QA.
  • Define and implement a testing framework/strategy: component unit tests, visual regression, accessibility checks, and integration tests
  • Collaborate with Product Designers to translate guidelines into tokenized, testable components, ensuring consistency across apps
  • Integrate the library into CI/CD pipelines with automated builds, tests, visual regression, and versioned releases
  • Write clean, maintainable, scalable code in TypeScript and React, building responsive, reliable, and secure web applications
  • Own feature development from idea to deployment, aligning closely with product, design, backend, QA, and BA teams
  • Review code, challenge assumptions, and help raise the technical bar across the team
  • Mentor less experienced engineers and support team growth through technical guidance
  • Help shape frontend architecture and long-term decisions (modularity, patterns, performance)

Requirements

  • 5+ years of professional experience in frontend development with expertise in TypeScript, modern JavaScript, and the React ecosystem (hooks, context, modular design).
  • Experience designing or contributing to a design system or shared component library (tokens, theming, accessibility, documentation)

  • Experience designing or contributing to scalable frontend architectures
  • Comfortable in a fast-paced, iterative, CI/CD environment with agile processes and rapid feedback loops

  • Strong communication skills, valuing direct feedback and open dialogue

  • Able to navigate ambiguity and adapt to changing priorities, balancing multiple tasks and shifting business needs
