UX Engineer

About the role

We're looking for a UX Engineer to take ownership of our design system and shared UI patterns, helping teams build faster and more consistently across the product. This role lives within Engineering but works at the intersection of Design, Product, and Frontend Engineering.

Responsibilities

• Treat the design system like a product — own its components, patterns, and usage guidelines, and keep it evolving.
• Design and maintain reusable UI primitives and interaction patterns that hold up across multiple teams and use cases.
• Identify and clean up frontend UX debt — inconsistencies and quality gaps that slow everyone down.
• Build coded prototypes (using mock or synthetic data) for complex, data-heavy or AI-driven workflows.
• Raise the bar on motion, responsiveness, and mobile experience across the product.
• Work alongside Design and Product early in discovery to catch feasibility issues before they become rework.
• Serve as the translation layer between design vision and technical implementation — surfacing constraints and resolving ambiguity.
• Ship production-quality code and weigh in on system-level frontend architecture decisions.

Requirements

• Strong frontend engineering skills — React, TypeScript, Tailwind, Storybook — with a track record of shipping real production UI.
• Hands-on experience building or scaling design systems and component libraries.
• A sharp eye for interaction design, usability, accessibility, and visual polish.
• Comfort working with AI-assisted development tools to move faster.
• Bonus: experience building products in regulated industries (healthcare, finance, insurance, or similar), where compliance and data sensitivity shape design decisions.

Qualifications

• Experience with design systems and component libraries.
• Understanding of accessibility standards and best practices.
• Knowledge of front-end development tools and techniques.
• Experience with version control systems (Git).
