UI Design Engineer

This is a Full Time Job

Design Engineer

We’re hiring a Design Engineer who blends design taste, engineering execution, and product ownership. You’ll work where design and engineering meet–turning concepts into polished, performant, production-ready interfaces across our React stack.

Overview

You’ll collaborate with design and product from day one, shaping UI in real code, building reusable components, and delivering interaction patterns that feel fast, intuitive, and intentional. Motion, accessibility, and responsive behavior are treated as core requirements, not extras.

What Success Looks Like
• High-quality, reusable React components adopted across teams
• Production UI that feels fast, intuitive, and consistent
• Smooth, intentional motion that enhances clarity and flow
• Strong partnership with design and engineering from concept through ship
• Meaningful contributions to our design system and component architecture

Key Responsibilities

Design Engineering Quality
• Build polished, production-ready UI using React, Next.js, and Tailwind
• Implement motion, micro-interactions, and transitions using Framer Motion or native techniques
• Evolve and maintain reusable primitives and components using shadcn/ui patterns
• Ensure accessibility, responsiveness, and cross-browser consistency
• Optimize interaction performance and animation smoothness
• Translate Figma concepts into high-quality code with clear states and flows

Collaborative Design Delivery
• Partner early with designers to shape components, interactions, and states
• Prototype interaction ideas and motion-heavy flows in code
• Provide engineering insight to improve design feasibility and clarity
• Iterate quickly with real UI instead of static hand-offs

Product Integration & Ownership
• Own UI execution for features end-to-end
• Handle interaction logic, state management, and edge-case behavior
• Participate in sprint planning, estimation, and cross-functional reviews

Design System & Reusability
• Extend and refine our design system using shadcn/ui, Tailwind tokens, and reusable patterns
• Document component usage, motion guidelines, and best practices
• Promote consistency across product surfaces

Qualifications
• 3 years in frontend engineering or design engineering
• Strong React experience
• Proficiency with Tailwind and component-driven UI architecture
• Experience implementing polished UI with smooth, performant motion
• Strong grasp of accessibility, responsive design, and UI fundamentals
• Comfortable collaborating closely with designers and product teams

Preferred Skills
• Experience with Framer Motion
• Familiarity with shadcn/ui or similar headless component systems
• Ability to prototype in Figma and code
• Experience contributing to or maintaining a design system
• Strong sense of visual and interaction design

Key Metrics for Impact
• Reuse and adoption of components
• UI performance and interaction responsiveness
• Reduction in design-to-code iteration time
• Accessibility and consistency across surfaces
