Requirements

  • 6+ years building production frontend design systems that serve multiple product surfaces across mobile and web.
  • Strong frontend engineering across modern web technologies and component-based architecture.
  • High UI and UX craft with strong product taste and maintainability focus.
  • Deep experience building and maintaining component libraries, design-token pipelines, Storybook, and visual regression.
  • Expertise in Figma workflows or plugins.
  • Strong accessibility fundamentals across mobile and web.
  • Experience standing up or consolidating design systems and aligning Figma libraries with production code.
  • Proven experience using AI to ship prototypes, components, and system work faster.
  • Experience building resources that make a system usable by AI (skills, documentation, and rules).
  • Strong communication skills for explaining technical decisions clearly to specialists and non-specialists.
  • Senior judgment to work through ambiguity and sequence change effectively.
  • A body of work showing shipped design-engineering impact across production UI.

Responsibilities

  • Establish the system's architecture and foundations across Figma and code, from primitives and tokens through components and patterns to critical user flows.
  • Build reusable, production-ready components with the full range of states, interaction, motion, and accessibility built in.
  • Keep design and code in sync as the system grows, closing gaps when Figma, code, and Storybook fall out of alignment.
  • Define what good looks like in the system, set the standards, and hold teams' work to them so it stays consistent, accessible, and high quality.
  • Create AI tooling and skills that let all of EPD prototype and build leveraging the system and design best practices.
  • Write the documentation, usage guidance, and component rules that let people and AI build with the system correctly across Figma, code, and Storybook.
  • Partner with designers, product managers, and engineers on how the system holds up in complex workflows and edge cases.
