Unity is Abb Vie's enterprise design system — the shared tokens, components, standards, and documentation that enable rapid, compliant, high-quality digital product delivery  Unity Design System team is transitioning Unity into a fully AI-enabled, agent-ready platform: AI-assisted design-to-code, Claude Code skills, MCP integrations, and AI-driven UI delivery, with humans in the loop to curate, approve, and evolve standards.

This role sits on the developer-facing side of Unity. The person in this seat is a hands-on, full-stack-leaning engineer and the visible “face” of Unity development — building the React component library and developer tooling, pioneering agentic AI workflows, and serving the 600+ member developer community as a trusted, go-to resource.

Work collaboratively across the Unity Design System team, BTS, and Abb Vie’s developer and design communities to independently identify, conceive, design, engineer, and optimize developer-facing components, tooling, and AI-assisted workflows that accelerate compliant, high-quality digital product delivery across the enterprise. Serve as a hands-on, full-stack-leaning builder across React/Type Script components and design tokens, Python/Node.js services and automation, and agentic AI integrations; gather requirements directly from developers, QA work, deploy solutions, and close fast feedback loops.

Establish trust and credibility as a go-to resource for Unity development needs and act as the developer-facing face of the design system.

Responsibilities:

• Design, build, test, andmaintainreusable, accessible React/Type Script components for the Unity React library, with deep attention to design tokens/tokenization, theming (light/dark, density modes), composability, and Storybook documentation.
• Build and advance AI-assisted and agentic developer workflows— including Claude Code skills, MCP server integrations (Figma, Storybook), context/markdown files, and prompt-to-code/design-to-code pipelines — that enable developers and AI agents to deliver Unity-compliant UI at scale.
• Develop full-stack supporting services, front-end automation, and build/release/validation tooling using Python and Node.js (CI/CD, design-ops, compliance checks).
• Act as the developer-facing face of Unity —provide community support, outreach, and management; build relationships, run demos/office hours/presentations, andestablishtrust and credibility as the go-to resource for Unity development.
• Independently gather and generate requirements from developer-community needs, translate them into actionable work,maintain appropriate technical documentation, and communicate projectobjectives, progress, issues, and escalations to relevant stakeholders through quick feedback loops.
• Contribute to Unity's data-visualization capabilities and support data-science-driven features, applying a data-science background and data-visualization experience where applicable.
• Wear multiple hats and context-switchas a co-owner of team responsibilities acrossrequirements, development, QA/testing, deployment, application development, community building, and presentations.
• Learn, master, and stay current with evolving AI development and…
