• Translate Figma concepts into reusable, production‑ready components, owning technical implementation and APIs.
• Prototype and test new front‑end workflows that leverage AI and agentic tools.
• Mentor engineers to elevate front‑end craft; act as technical consultant for designers regarding feasibility.
• Help enable product and design to ship high‑quality experiences faster with less friction.

• 5+ years in a senior front‑end engineering role with a proven track record of production‑quality UIs.
• Expert‑level knowledge of React, Type Script, and modern front‑end tooling; experience with Tailwind a strong plus.
• Deep experience building, scaling, and maintaining a design system or comparable component library.
• Strong understanding of web accessibility (WCAG) and core web performance metrics.
• Excellent eye for design and UX; comfortable collaborating closely with designers to implement advanced motion, interaction, and brand elements.
