Principal Product Designer

This role bridges design and engineering by translating design specifications and components into high-quality, reusable front-end code and maintaining the coded design system in partnership with design system owners. Responsibilities also include building interactive prototypes using AI-assisted tools and establishing foundational tools and workflows for design-to-code processes.

Responsibilities

• Bridge design and engineering: Translate design specs, components, and interaction patterns into high-quality front-end implementations
• Work closely with designers to refine interaction details, states, and edge cases, then express them as code, stories, and clear usage guidelines
• Collaborate with engineers to ensure prototypes align with technical constraints and can transition smoothly toward production
• Build high-fidelity, interactive prototypes using a mix of design tools, AI prototyping tools, and code
• Support UX research by preparing realistic prototypes for testing and iterating quickly based on user feedback and data

Requirements

• 8+ years of experience in product design engineering, UX engineering, design technology, UI engineering, or a similar hybrid role
• Strong understanding of product design principles, UX patterns, and interaction design
• Strong proficiency in modern front-end technologies: HTML, CSS, JavaScript/TypeScript, and a component framework such as React
• Demonstrated experience implementing and maintaining a component library or design system in production
• Experience building prototypes that go beyond click-throughs (real data, logic, interactions, and edge cases)
• Strong communication skills in English both written and verbal

Benefits

• Equal Opportunity Employer
• Do not discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment because of race, color, sex, age, national origin, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity and/or expression, status as a veteran, and basis of disability or any other federal, state or local protected class
