We are looking for a Design Developer with excellent design skills and coding chops to focus on AI-powered developer experiences! Overview This role sits at the intersection of product design and front-end development, supporting rapid prototyping and implementation across web and product experiences. This role will support a variety of developer web and product areas and experiences. The ideal candidate is a strong designer who can build and test their own work, reducing traditional design to dev handoff and enabling faster iteration. This is a modern, cross disciplinary role — someone who can move fluidly from concept to coded prototype, using both established front-end frameworks and emerging AI tools. ________________________________________ Key Responsibilities • Design high quality UI and product experiences across web and product surfaces • Translate designs directly into working front end implementations using component frameworks (e.g., React based systems) • Build and test prototypes owning implementation through iteration • Produce design artifacts across fidelities (e.g., wireframes, journey maps, prototypes, high-fidelity visuals, redlines) using Figma, Vercel, and other AI prototyping tools • Rapidly prototype concepts using AI assisted tools to explore and validate ideas quickly • Collaborate closely with product, engineering, and design partners in short cycle, fast moving workflows • Support both website and product work, adapting to changing priorities and assignments • Participate in a “strike team” style model, contributing across multiple components or products as needed ________________________________________ Required Skills & Experience • Bachelor’s degree in Industrial Design, Product Design, HCI, UX, Interaction Design, or equivalent work experience • Strong foundation in product and UI design o Hands on experience with front end development, including React or similar web component based frameworks and HTML, CSS, JS/TS, Python o Working with design systems and reusable components • 5+ years experience in Figma and Adobe Creative Suite, with examples of high-quality design artifacts produced (e.g., diagrams, wireframes, mockups) • 3+ years of end-to-end design process experience, including shipping products or delivering services to customers • Comfort using GitHub and collaborative development workflows • Experience implementing and testing designs directly in code • AI assisted tools for prototyping and code generation (e.g., Copilot style tools) • Familiarity with rapid prototyping workflows and iterative design • Ability to adapt quickly as tools and processes evolve • Strong collaborations skills, with demonstrated experience working across both design and development disciplines
