Design Engineer

What you’ll do

• Design and build product interfaces end to end, from Figma exploration to production-ready React code

• Own our design system in both Figma and code: tokens, components, variants, documentation. Keep the two in sync

• Build and polish UI components with attention to states, edge cases, accessibility, and performance

• Prototype interactions and new flows in code to test ideas with real data before we commit to them

• Craft motion and micro-interactions that make complex workflows feel clear and responsive

• Raise the quality bar of the product: spot UI inconsistencies, fix them yourself, ship

• Work directly with product, engineering, and research. Expect fast iterations and full ownership

What we’re looking for

• 6+ years of experience in product design, frontend engineering, or design engineering, with a portfolio showing both design and shipped code

• Strong frontend skills: React, TypeScript, modern CSS (Flexbox, Grid, custom properties, container queries)

• Experience building and maintaining design systems in code, e.g. design tokens, component APIs, Storybook or similar

• Deep Figma knowledge: Auto Layout, Components, Variants, Variables, Prototyping

• Experience with motion and animation in code (Framer Motion / Motion, CSS transitions, or similar)

• A track record of designing clear, functional web interfaces, ideally for technical or data-heavy products (dashboards, developer tools, B2B SaaS)

• Solid grasp of accessibility (WCAG, keyboard navigation, ARIA) and responsive design

• Comfort working in a real codebase: Git, code review, working alongside engineers

• You use AI tools daily in your workflow (Cursor, Claude Code, v0, or similar) and know how to get production-quality results out of them

Bonus points

• Experience with Tailwind CSS, Radix UI / shadcn/ui, or other headless component libraries

• Next.js or Vite experience

• Data visualization (D3, Recharts, visx)

• Figma plugin or Figma-to-code pipeline experience (Tokens Studio, Style Dictionary, Code Connect)

• Interest in AI safety, LLMs, or developer tooling

Compensation & benefits

• Competitive compensation package, including equity

• Flexible time off

• Health insurance

• Mental health support, including coverage for therapy when you need it

• 401(k) retirement plan

• Learning and development support for courses, conferences, and opportunities to grow your skills

• All the hardware, subscriptions, tools, and services you need

• Team off-sites twice a year: we’ve recently been to the Alps, Saint-Tropez, and Marbella
