*   Own implementation of a robust frontend design system, delivering reusable, consistent, and documented components that scale with the product.
*   Collaborate deeply with designers, engineers, and client engagement teams, ensuring a seamless bridge between UX concepts and shipped software.
*   Help shape design patterns and user flows that make complex AI capabilities approachable and understandable.

**Skills & Experience - Core:**

*   4+ years of experience in design engineering, frontend development, or hybrid design/engineering roles
*   3+ years experience writing React, TypeScript and CSS in production settings
*   Experience working in Figma to create prototypes
*   Deep experience with design systems, component libraries, and scalable UI patterns
*   Experience collaborating closely with designers and engineers
*   High ownership mindset with a track record of driving work from concept to completion
*   Strong collaboration skills with designers and engineers across the product lifecycle

**Skills & Experience - Pluses:**

*   Experience working in early-stage startups or fast-moving, ambiguous environments
