Role Snapshot

We’re seeking a UX Engineer who thrives at the intersection of design and engineering. This role will partner closely with both designers and developers to implement design iterations into our applications, build reusable components, and scale component systems into full design systems. You’ll directly contribute to our goal of delivering modernized, polished, and consistent experiences for our users. The ideal candidate is a strategic thinker, skilled front-end developer, and exceptional collaborator who can move fluidly between teams, adapt to workflows, and elevate the user experience through thoughtful implementation. If you’re a collaborative, detail-oriented UX Engineer with a passion for design systems and accessibility, we’d love to hear from you.

As a UX Engineer, you will be :

Responsibilities

  • Partner with product designers and engineering teams to translate design concepts into scalable, high-quality code.
  • Build, maintain, and scale component systems into design systems that serve multiple teams and products.
  • Take ownership of the design system as a product — ensuring its long-term scalability, adoption, and usability across teams.
  • Define and enforce best practices for design system usage, documentation, accessibility, and governance.
  • Ensure pixel-perfect implementation of designs across products with strong attention to detail, particularly in CSS.
  • Act as a bridge between design and engineering, advocating for user experience while respecting technical constraints.
  • Jump into various teams’ workflows and processes, providing flexible, collaborative support.
  • Identify opportunities for improving consistency, accessibility, and efficiency across the product suite.

Experience & Skills

  • 3–5 years of experience in front-end development with a strong design focus.
  • Proven experience contributing to or leading the creation of a design system and treating it as a product (with ownership, governance, and multi-team adoption in mind).
  • Proficiency in modern front-end technologies and frameworks : React, Vue, Vanilla JavaScript, HTML, and CSS (expert-level CSS required).
  • Strong eye for design details, with proven ability to match coded products to design specifications.
  • Expertise in accessibility standards and implementation (WCAG, ARIA).
  • Experience collaborating with both design and engineering teams; able to adapt to different team processes.
  • Exceptional communication skills, with the ability to translate design goals into engineering solutions and vice versa.
  • Strategic thinker who can balance short-term implementation needs with long-term scalability.
  • Demonstrated curiosity and eagerness to explore emerging technologies, including Generative AI, and how they can improve user experience and design workflows.
  • Benefits

    We offer :

  • Medical, Dental, Vision, and Voluntary benefits
  • Generous PTO
  • Paid parental leave (following 12 months of continuous employment)
  • 401K Match
  • $200 event reimbursement
  • Udemy Business, a world-class learning and development platform
