About the role

  • At Homebase, you'll join a team that's bold, fast-moving, and obsessed with helping small businesses thrive.
  • Your craft lives in the component library but isn't always limited there.
  • You're comfortable thinking in both and know where they share logic and where they diverge.

Responsibilities

  • Build net-new components - Own the component build process from Figma review to coded component to documented storybook story. You catch edge cases designers didn't spec and flag them before they become debt.
  • Maintain and evolve existing components - Audit the library regularly. Deprecate the stale, upgrade the brittle, and keep the system consistent as the product grows.
  • We build with empathy, act with urgency, and take big swings that drive real-world impact.
  • Here, every Homie shows up to raise the bar, support one another, and celebrate wins as a team.
  • We're not just building an app-we're building unstoppable teams.
  • Designbase is the foundation that every product team at Homebase builds on.
  • As a UX Engineer on the Designbase team, you'll join a tight-knit systems crew - pairing with our existing Design Engineer and Design Systems Lead Designer - to close the gap between what designers imagine and what engineers ship, at scale, across web and native app surfaces.
  • You'll co-own Storybook alongside your engineering counterpart - building net-new components, maintaining and evolving what exists, and making sure every implementation reflects the design intent in Figma with precision.
  • Next, you're working through a cross-platform pattern with your fellow Design Engineer and the iOS and Android teams, making sure it holds up on native before it ships.
  • Then you're in Figma with the Design Systems Lead, pressure-testing a new pattern before it gets built.

Requirements

  • It's important you work closely with the respective teams to ensure the components are built to the highest standards
  • You don't need to live in Figma, but you know when something is off.
  • Cross-platform thinking - you know where web and native components can share logic and where they need to diverge, and you make those calls with confidence
  • High AI proficiency - you actively use AI tools in your workflow and can show concrete examples of how they accelerate your output
  • That's why Tuesdays and Wednesdays are our required in-office days-a time to move faster as a team, build deeper connections, make better decisions, and build together.
