You will define and evolve the technical foundation of a modern design system that powers consistent, high-quality experiences across multiple products and teams. The position plays a critical role in bridging design and engineering, ensuring scalability, performance, and accessibility are built into every component. You will also influence how AI-assisted coding tools generate production-ready UI through well-designed APIs and workflows.

  • Build and evolve frontend infrastructure that supports scalability, including testing frameworks, CI/CD pipelines, versioning, and visual regression systems.
  • Design component APIs and developer workflows that improve how engineers and AI coding agents build consistent, production-ready interfaces.
  • Improve frontend quality across performance, accessibility, responsiveness, and interaction design standards.
  • Establish and evangelize frontend best practices, ensuring consistency and maintainability across multiple product teams.
  • Collaborate closely with design and product stakeholders to influence early product and system decisions, balancing technical constraints and user experience.
  • Requirements:

    • 3+ years of experience in frontend engineering with significant ownership of architecture, systems, or platform-level work.
    • Proven experience building or evolving a design system used across multiple teams or products.
    • Strong expertise in modern frontend technologies, including TypeScript and component-based architectures (e.g., React or similar frameworks).
    • Deep understanding of frontend quality dimensions such as performance optimization, accessibility, and UX consistency.
    • Strong product sense and design awareness, with an eye for detail and user experience quality.
    • Excellent communication and collaboration skills, particularly when working across engineering, design, and product teams.
    • Enthusiasm for AI-assisted development workflows and interest in shaping how AI interacts with frontend systems.
    • Nice to have: experience with React, Storybook, and data visualization tools such as D3, visx, or Chart.js, as well as experience in B2B SaaS or data-rich applications.
    • Benefits:

      • Competitive salary range of $160,000 – $270,000 annually, depending on experience and location.
      • Stock options as part of the overall compensation package.
      • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance coverage.
      • Flexible time off policy to support work-life balance.
      • Paid parental leave for eligible employees.
