Design Engineer

A Design Engineer takes product ideas from an early thought to a polished frontend experience. Their output includes a clear Figma design and/or production-ready frontend code.

AI has made it easy to make software that works. The next challenge is making it clear, useful, memorable, and a delight to use.

You will improve working products by finding what is unclear, unnecessary, or missing, then making the experience easier to understand and use.

You will work closely with a small team, so good ideas can move from a conversation to the product quickly. You will have room to influence how we make decisions and improve the way we work.

The role can begin as a freelance engagement or an internship. If the engagement goes well and the fit is right, there may be an opportunity to transition into a full-time role.

This could be a fit if you:

  • You care about how a product works and how it comes across to the person using it
  • You can spot when something is off a screen, button, piece of copy, layout, or anything else and explain what to change
  • You collaborate well and are willing to butt heads over subjective decisions when it helps make the product better
  • You use AI tools to explore and build faster while keeping your standards high

Nice to have:

  • You have built a design system or visual language from scratch
  • You have improved an existing product through user feedback or observation

What you'll do:

  • Translate product goals into clear Figma designs and production-ready frontend code
  • Build reusable components and complete interface states across multiple views
  • Implement interactions, transitions, typography, spacing, and visual details using our tooling
  • Shape our design system and brand language as the work grows
  • Review the experience in use, then refine it through feedback
