Knowledge, Skills & Abilities:
- Systems thinker who can balance consistency with the real needs of product teams
- Strong visual design and interaction design skills, with sharp attention to detail
- Deep knowledge of Figma, including components, variants, variables, and library management
- Expert communicator who can explain system decisions simply and get buy-in across teams
- Self-motivated attitude with the ability to work in a fast-paced, sometimes ambiguous work environment
- Strong sense of ownership and accountability
Minimum Qualifications:
- BS/BA degree or equivalent years of work experience
- A strong portfolio showcasing your work, including design systems work
- 5+ years of experience designing mobile applications, including 2+ years building, maintaining, or contributing to a design system
- Experience designing for iOS and Android platform conventions
- Experience working with engineers on component specs and how they’re implemented in code
Preferred Qualifications:
- Experience working on a design system for a large consumer mobile app
