About the role

Responsibilities

  • Evolve our design system to be foundational infrastructure for AI-assisted workflows.
  • Own the bridge between design and code

  • Make design a force multiplier for engineering, not a bottleneck.
  • Build the workflows, tools, and infrastructure that let designers and PMs prototype at high fidelity, with working code, real components, and interactive states, without waiting on engineering.
  • Identify the places where design and engineering lose time, intent, or quality in the handoff, and build AI-powered workflows that close those gaps.
  • Enable designers to work more code-adjacent and engineers to build with better components.

Requirements
