# Design Engineer

- **Company:** Enode Ships
- **Location:** UK (Remote available)
- **Experience:** Expert
- **Contract:** Permanent contract
- **Skills:** Artificial Intelligence, Figma, Claude
- **Published:** November 5, 2026
- **Apply:** https://www.workingnomads.com/job/go/1981732/

## About the Role

* 5+ years building user interfaces, in a design engineering, front-end or design-focused engineering role.
 * Deep knowledge of React and TypeScript, and a strong understanding of HTML, CSS and accessibility.
 * A solid understanding of APIs: you're comfortable reading the docs and building on real data, you understand what developers need from them, and you have a view on how they should be designed.
 * A portfolio that shows both: things you designed, and things you built.
 * You've spent the past year using AI in your design and engineering work, and pushing how far it can go. You have a clear view on where it helps and where it doesn't.
 * Experience contributing to a design system that people actually use.
 * Comfort working on your own: you can take a rough idea to a shipped feature without a detailed spec.
 * Clear communication with designers and engineers alike. You can explain a design decision to an engineer, a technical constraint to a designer, and you keep the overarching story in mind.
 * Excellent written communication: we are remote-first, so writing well is key.

## Description

The design team at Enode ships. We're looking for a Senior Design Engineer who's as comfortable in a codebase as they are in Figma, and who closes the gap between the two.

You'll build the interfaces energy retailers and their developers use: the Enode Platform, where they integrate and debug; Link UI, the flow their customers go through when they connect a car or a heat pump; and the website that tells our story. You'll turn designs into production-ready code, prototype ideas before they become designs, and help look after the design system that keeps all of it consistent.

The team

You'll report to Daniël, our Head of Design, and join a small, senior design team that works across product and brand. You'll have real ownership: what you build goes live.

How we work

Day to day, each designer works mostly with their own team of engineers, often alongside a product manager. Every Monday, the designers get together to sync and share their work. We team up on projects when it makes sense, and jump on a quick huddle whenever someone wants feedback.

AI is part of how we work every day. We use it to prototype, explore and build our own tools, so a few people can do a lot. But the craft still matters most, so we care just as much about knowing where it falls short. You'll help shape how we use it as a team.
