- Assist in identifying inconsistencies and areas for improvement through audits and user feedback
- Prototype, test, and ship updates to the system with real product impact
- Participate in our shift toward an AI-native platform by exploring how design systems can evolve alongside intelligent features
What is needed:
- You have a strong eye for design detail and care about creating consistent, accessible, and user-centric interfaces
- You’ve contributed to a design system or pattern library in a team environment
- You’re proficient using Figma styles, variables and components, and you have an interest in learning modern tooling (like Cursor, Storybook, Git-based workflows)
- You have a basic understanding of HTML/CSS and are eager to grow your skills at the design-engineering intersection
- You enjoy collaborating and learning from others, and you're comfortable asking questions to build alignment and clarity
