  • Support design system adoption across web, mobile web, iOS, and Android product teams.
  • Partner with engineering to ensure components are practical, scalable, accessible, and implementable.
  • Document component usage, interaction behavior, accessibility guidance, design decisions, and best practices.
  • Help establish governance models for design system contribution, review, versioning, release, and adoption.
  • Collaborate with product designers to solve complex experience challenges through scalable patterns.
  • Create interactive prototypes to communicate design concepts, flows, and component behavior.
  • Advocate for accessibility, inclusive design, usability, consistency, scalability, and performance.
  • Support cross-functional alignment between design, engineering, product, content, and accessibility teams.
  • Contribute to the long-term design system roadmap and help identify opportunities to improve quality, efficiency, and consistency.

  • Experience documenting design systems, design decisions, usage guidance, and component behavior.
  • Strong understanding of accessibility standards and inclusive design principles.
  • Experience partnering closely with engineering teams to translate design system components into implemented UI.
  • Ability to work across multiple product teams and influence design consistency at scale.
  • Strong communication, stakeholder management, and cross-functional collaboration skills.
  • Experience working in Agile product environments.

Preferred Experience
