Job Description

We're looking for a Senior Frontend Engineer to own and evolve our design system - not just consume it. You'll turn Figma designs into reusable, accessible React + TypeScript components and drive their adoption across product teams. Responsibilities: • Build and maintain our component library (React + TypeScript): tokens, layout primitives, complex components. • Translate Figma designs into accessible, responsive, production-ready components. • Document components and usage guidelines in Storybook. • Own versioning/publishing of the library as an internal npm package. • Drive adoption across squads and prevent UI drift/duplication. • Ensure accessibility (WCAG/ARIA) and cross-browser consistency. • Mentor other frontend engineers on the design system. Requirements: • 5+ years frontend experience, strong React + TypeScript • Proven experience building or scaling a design system/component library — not just using one. • Strong grasp of component API design and reusable styling (CSS-in-JS, Tailwind, or similar). • Experience with Storybook and accessibility standards (WCAG 2.1+). • Experience versioning/publishing internal npm packages. • Comfortable working directly from Figma, including design tokens. • AI-first workflow: regularly delegates real, multi-step tasks to AI coding agents (Copilot, Claude Code, Cursor, or similar) — provides proper context, reviews diffs critically, verifies output, and has a clear process for when the AI gets it wrong. • Bonus: AI-native, not just AI-using — creates or customizes skills/MCP servers, manages context deliberately, picks the right model for the task, and can speak to specific failures and trade-offs (not just tool/brand names). Nice to Have: • Design tokens tooling (Style Dictionary). • Prior experience as a design system owner/lead. We offer*: • Flexible working format - remote, office-based or flexible • A competitive salary and good compensation package • Personalized career growth • Professional development tools (mentorship program, tech talks and trainings, centers of excellence, and more) • Active tech communities with regular knowledge sharing • Education reimbursement • Memorable anniversary presents • Corporate events and team buildings • Other location-specific benefits *not applicable for freelancers
