System Designer

We’re looking for a System Designer who can bring coherence and structure to complex, multi-surface software experiences across Applied Intuition’s product portfolio. As part of Applied Intuition’s design team, you will define the interaction frameworks, information architecture, and design systems that let our products scale consistently across tools, platforms, and customer use cases.

At Applied Intuition, you will:

• Define and evolve the foundational design language for a platform-level build system.
• Build a patform level design system that supports multiple products and tools, rather than a single application.
• Establish scalable design system assets across design and code.
• Define agent-driven design system patterns, enabling AI agents and coding tools to generate product experiences using approved components, patterns, and system rules.
• Create code-based standards, reusable skills, and implementation guidance that engineers and AI coding tools can use consistently.
• Establish and maintain accessibility standards across components, patterns, and platforms.
• Validate the design system across real products and workflows.
• Support a multi-platform ecosystem across web, in-vehicle interfaces, devices, enterprise tools, and emerging surfaces.
• Define patterns for multiple interaction models, including click, touch, voice, and agent-driven interactions.
• Maintain a high bar for visual design, brand, usability, accessibility, and consistency.
• Create clear documentation for designers, engineers, customers, and AI-assisted development workflows.

• 6+ years of experience in product design, UX design, or design systems work, ideally on complex B2B, technical, or data-heavy software
• Bachelors degree in engineering or design field
• Strong experience building and scaling platform-level design systems across multiple products or tools.
• Excellent visual and interaction design skills.
• Strong understanding of design system architecture, accessibility, and inclusive design.
• Experience translating design systems into production code, reusable components, and AI-consumable standards.
• Strong systems thinking and ability to design for complex enterprise ecosystems.
• Experience partnering closely with engineering.
• Strong documentation and communication skills.

Nice to have:

• Experience shipping design system components directly in a production codebase.
• Experience creating AI coding guidelines, skills, rules, or agent-driven design system workflows.
• Experience running research or usability validation.
• Experience designing for automotive, enterprise software, developer tools, or platform products.
• Experience with embedded devices, voice, multimodal, or agent-driven interfaces.
