We’re hiring a Staff Design Engineer to sit at the centre of design, product, and engineering—and change how we build. This is a hands-on role for someone who can move fluidly from idea → prototype → production-ready patterns → live experiments on our site.

You’ll help teams work faster, with higher quality, by reducing friction across the whole journey: early discovery, concepting, prototyping, design-to-engineering handover, and shipping experiments.

• You’re a builder, a systems thinker, and a connector. You’re a design engineer in the truest sense: strong product craft and strong engineering instincts.
• You love getting ideas out of decks and into reality—quickly and cleanly.
• You can prototype in whatever medium is fastest:
  Figma, code, AI tooling, lightweight front-end builds, etc.
• You see handoffs and repeated one-off solutions as a smell—and you naturally turn patterns into reusable systems.
• You’re comfortable influencing without authority: you bring people with you through clarity, momentum, and proof.
• You’re excited by AI as a practical accelerator (not a gimmick): you care about quality, governance, and repeatable workflows.
• You can explain complex things simply and you enjoy teaching, writing, and sharing what you learn.

• Transform how we work end-to-end from ideation to live experiments
• You’ll help us tighten the loop between identifying opportunities, prototyping solutions, and pushing experiments live. That means making it easier to go from early design thinking to real, measurable outcomes on our site—without losing quality.
• Support product to prototype and express ideas
• You’ll partner with product teams to bring ideas to life quickly: interactive prototypes, lightweight implementations, experiment-ready concepts, and clear demonstrations of “what good looks like.”
• Speed up design-to-engineering handover
• You’ll work with engineering to reduce ambiguity and friction at the boundary: clearer specs, shared patterns, better tokens/components, improved workflows, and prototypes that de-risk technical decisions early.
• Increase speed and quality through systems and tooling
• You’ll identify where teams are building one-offs and convert them into reusable components, patterns, and workflow improvements—so we ship faster and with greater consistency.
• Build and embed AI-enabled workflows
• You’ll help integrate AI into design and development workflows in a way that’s safe, high-quality, and aligned to our design system. You’ll test tools, define guidelines, and build in-house workflows that genuinely accelerate delivery.
• Lead through making
• When something stalls, you’ll step in and make the hard parts real—prototypes, reference implementations, design system extensions, tooling—creating momentum through evidence and craft.
• Be a thought leader internally and externally
• Internally, you’ll set standards and bring teams along with practical playbooks, examples, and measurable impact. Externally, you’ll help shape our narrative—through talks, writing, open sharing (where appropriate), and strong viewpoints on modern design/engineering practice.
• Understanding the role of content and data in the experience
• We aren’t just building UI patterns, we…
