Staff Product Designer, Design Systems

About the role

This role owns the evolution of Atlas, Super.com's design system, across web and mobile. You will set the bar for component quality, accessibility, and craft, and lead the work that lets every product team at Super.com ship faster without compromising consistency. You'll also lead the next chapter for Atlas: making it AI-ready.

Responsibilities

• Owning the strategy, roadmap, and evolution of Atlas across web and mobile, including tokens, components, patterns, and guidelines
• Setting and holding the quality bar for Atlas, including accessibility, brand fidelity, and craft, through reviews, audits, and a clear contribution process
• Architecting Atlas's tokens and components for AI consumption, not just human use, including how the system is structured, named, and linked back to Figma and code
• Partnering closely with engineering on the design-to-code pipeline, including tokens, component APIs, and the workflows that prevent drift over time
• Driving adoption through documentation, office hours, pairing, and a healthy contribution model that scales beyond any single owner
• Shaping AI-assisted design workflows on the team, evaluating new tools, and integrating the ones that meaningfully improve quality and throughput
• Mentoring designers across the org on systems thinking, accessibility, and AI fluency, and elevating the craft bar across Super.com
• Defining the metrics that show Atlas is healthy, including adoption, consistency, accessibility, and the time it saves product teams, and reporting on them regularly

Requirements

• 7+ years of product design experience shipping consumer products across web and mobile, with at least 3 years building and scaling a design system
• A track record of taking a design system through a meaningful version change or 0-to-1 build, including governance, tokens, component architecture, and adoption
• Strong product design fundamentals and excellent visual and interaction craft, with the judgment to know when to systematize a pattern and when to leave it alone
• Working fluency with modern front-end concepts (tokens, components, states, responsive behavior) and the ability to collaborate closely with engineering on tradeoffs and APIs
• A point of view on token architecture and component API design, and how those decisions change when AI agents are reading the system, plus hands-on experience using AI tooling such as Figma MCP, Cursor, or Claude in real production work
• Experience setting accessibility standards and shipping accessible components informed by WCAG
• Experience mentoring senior and mid-level designers, and a track record of leveling up the team around you
• Strong written communication and cross-functional influence, with the ability to align designers, engineers, PMs, and leadership without relying on formal authority
• Proficiency in Figma, and fluency with documentation tools such as Storybook, ZeroHeight, Supernova, Notion, or equivalents

Qualifications

• Experience with Code Connect, Tokens Studio, or similar design-to-code tooling
• Experience contributing to or maintaining AI plugins, skills, or MCP integrations against a design system
• Strong visual design, motion, or iconography skills that bridge brand and product
• Prototyping skills in Figma or other tools, including using AI to turn static screens into interactive flows for stakeholder review
