📋 Description

• Own the design system domain: Be the accountable owner of our design system – components, tokens, patterns, and documentation – keeping it consistent and high-quality as the team and product grow. • Design product day to day: Embed in a product team and design end-to-end features across our web platform, mobile app, internal tools, and dashboards – from user flows and wireframes to high-fidelity UI and prototypes. • Take the design system into the AI era: Restructure our tokens, components, and documentation so AI agents can read and use them, enabling prototypes that map one-to-one to our code. Close the gap between what we design and what we ship. • Partner closely with engineering: Keep the design system and codebase in sync – aligning naming, tokens, and component APIs so design and code stay 1:1. • Raise the consistency bar: Define and champion standards, review component usage across flows, and help other designers move faster within a shared system. • Collaborate cross-functionally: Work with product managers, engineers, and stakeholders from discovery through delivery, ensuring smooth implementation of your designs. • Wear multiple hats when needed: We're a lean team, and everyone steps up to support different design needs. You're not afraid to jump into projects outside your main scope to drive company success.

🎯 Requirements

• 5+ years of experience in product design, UX/UI, or digital design (agency or in-house), with at least 1 year in a senior or lead role. • Deep, demonstrable expertise in design systems – you've built, scaled, and governed a design system, not just consumed one. • Strong command of component architecture, design tokens, theming/modes, and documentation, with a systematic approach to naming and structure. • Advanced Figma skills – variables, modes, component properties, and auto-layout. You build systems, not just screens. • A solid understanding of how design systems map to front-end code (tokens, component structure), and comfort collaborating closely with engineers to keep design and code 1:1. Curiosity about how AI/agent-assisted design workflows are evolving is a strong plus. • A proven ability to design end-to-end product experiences across web, mobile apps, internal tools, and dashboards. • Excellent craft in interaction and visual design – you care deeply about clarity, hierarchy, and making complex workflows feel simple. • A proactive, highly organized way of working – you set the standard for structure and thrive with autonomy while collaborating closely with PMs and engineers. • Strong communication skills – you're comfortable presenting your work, explaining your rationale, and inviting feedback. • Experience working in agile, fast-paced environments, iterating quickly based on feedback and data. • Experience in fintech or B2B SaaS is nice-to-have, but curiosity and adaptability matter more.
