Job Description
Great design at enterprise scale isn't just about craft, it's about the tooling, automation, and guardrails that let a design org move fast and stay consistent.
Key Responsibilities
- Design and build internal tools and automations with strong UX, so the design org's own tooling is genuinely usable, not just functional, using TypeScript/JavaScript, Python, APIs, and the Figma plugin/REST APIs.
- Engineer the agent pipeline: stand up and maintain the MCP servers, context pipelines, and integrations that connect the design system to AI coding agents (Cursor, Claude Code, v0, Copilot).
- Automate governance-as-code: build CI checks, release automation, and policy enforcement so standards are guardrails in the pipeline rather than docs nobody reads.
- Own and govern the AI tool stack: evaluate, integrate, license, and roll out tools, and partner with security and legal on data/IP review and human-in-the-loop checkpoints.
- Instrument and report on impact: build telemetry and dashboards for design-system and AI-tool adoption, cycle time, and quality that leadership actually uses.
- Collaborate with designers, PMs, and engineers to derive and evolve the design system and the workflows around it.
- Build prompt and template infrastructure, reusable prompts, specs, and starter kits, so AI-assisted quality is consistent across the org.
- Set tooling and operations standards, lead platform initiatives, and mentor designers and engineers across the practice.
Requirements
- Around 5–8 years across design engineering, front-end, design-systems tooling, or platform/internal-tools engineering, with genuine design/UX sensibility, not engineering-only.
- Good UX instincts: you can design a usable tool and translate ambiguous needs into thoughtful solutions, with a foundation in HTML/CSS and front-end craft.
- Strong engineering skills, comfortable building real tools and automations (TypeScript/JavaScript and/or Python), working with APIs, CI/CD, and integrations.
- Solid working knowledge of Figma at an organizational level and its plugin/REST APIs.
- A track record of measurably improving how a design or product team works through tooling and automation.
- Hands-on fluency with AI tooling and a thoughtful, responsible point of view on governing it at work.
- A strong product mindset and bias toward ownership, plus the communication and leadership of a senior IC.
