Design Technologist​/UX Engineer

Front End Engineer (UX Focus)

Location:

Charlotte, NC (Hybrid: Tuesdays & Wednesdays in-office) | Relocation is welcome

Experience Level: Mid-to-Senior (5+ years)

We are seeking a highly skilled and adaptable Front End Engineer with a strong foundation in UX design. This is a unique role where you will bridge the gap between design and development by designing user experiences directly through code, rather than relying strictly on traditional design tools.

Please note:

A portfolio showcasing your previous work (both UX and development) is REQUIRED for consideration.

• Design with Code:
  Lead the UX design for modern applications by building and prototyping directly within the codebase.
• Component Development:
  Translate design system requirements into reusable, scalable, and production-ready UI components that perfectly align implementation with design intent.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration:
  
  Work closely with UX, product, engineering, and technical product owner teams to ensure consistency, responsiveness, and highly intuitive user experiences.
• Team Mentorship:
  Help the existing UX team get comfortable with frontend development concepts. Mentor, pair-program, and guide others through new tools, processes, and evolving best practices.
• Agile Workflow:
  Work comfortably directly in codebases, version control repositories, and collaborative engineering workflows.

• Frontend Frameworks:
  Professional experience with modern Angular (latest versions, e.g., v19/v20, highly preferred) and/or React. We are willing to support transition to the latest Angular versions if your foundation in modern JavaScript frameworks is strong.
• Core Web Technologies:
  Strong expertise in Type Script, HTML5, CSS3, and responsive web development.
• UX Principles:
  Deep understanding of UX design principles, usability heuristics, and modern interaction patterns.
• Experience Level: 5+ years of professional experience in frontend engineering and UX design.

• A background that started in UX Design before transitioning into software engineering.
• Prior experience working in startup environments, demonstrating high adaptability and a proactive mindset.
• Demonstrated experience building reusable components within a formalized design system or component library.

• Excellent Communicator:
  Strong verbal and written communication skills, with an emphasis on patience and collaborative problem-solving.
• Adaptable: A flexible mindset that thrives as UX and front‑end development practices naturally evolve.
• Empathetic Guide: A genuine interest in helping peers level up their technical skills and bridging the communication gap between design and engineering.
