We’re hiring a Design Engineer who blends design taste, engineering execution, and product ownership. You’ll work where design and engineering meet—turning concepts into polished, performant, production-ready interfaces across our React stack.
Overview
You’ll collaborate with design and product from day one, shaping UI in real code, building reusable components, and delivering interaction patterns that feel fast, intuitive, and intentional. Motion, accessibility, and responsive behavior are treated as core requirements, not extras.
What Success Looks Like
- High-quality, reusable React components adopted across teams
- Production UI that feels fast, intuitive, and consistent
- Smooth, intentional motion that enhances clarity and flow
- Strong partnership with design and engineering from concept through ship
- Meaningful contributions to our design system and component architecture
Key Responsibilities
Design + Engineering Quality
