Senior UX Designer, Design System
About the role
Ryan, LLC is a global leader in tax services and technology solutions, recognized consistently as one of the Best Places to Work by Fortune and Glassdoor. We help clients unlock capital, enabling growth, investment, and innovation.
The Role: We’re seeking a Senior UX Designer, Design Systems to own and evolve the design system that powers our suite of digital tax products. You’ll be the person who keeps our components sharp, our patterns consistent, and our system scalable as the product grows. This is a craft-first individual contributor role for a designer who obsesses over the details others overlook: token naming, component behavior, documentation clarity, and the kind of systematic thinking that makes a design system usable at scale. You have UX breadth to understand how the system serves the products built on top of it, and technical curiosity to collaborate fluently with the engineers who consume it.
Responsibilities
- Influence: Be the go-to authority for our design system, setting and maintaining the standard for how components are built, named, documented, and used across the team
- Educate and support designers across the team on system usage, contributing to a culture where the design system is understood, trusted, and consistently applied
- Identify gaps, inconsistencies, and debt within the system, prioritizing and advocating for improvements that have the highest impact across the product suite
- Collaborate: Work closely with Engineering to ensure design system components translate accurately into code, maintaining a tight feedback loop between what’s designed and what’s built
- Partner
