Job Description
Staff Design Systems Engineer
Niche
• Design, refine and ship reusable and accessible components, tokens, and interaction patterns that enable teams to build consistent, high-quality experiences across web and mobile • Contribute code to production and support Product Designers contributing code to production using agentic coding tools (Claude Code, custom internal tools) • Establish LLM guidelines that align with the design system, enabling engineers and designers to quickly generate and implement designs and prototypes aligned with the design system • Create internal guides and configure/create internal tooling to help Product Designers of varying technical levels adopt generative AI tooling in our daily workflows, making it possible for us to more directly improve and evolve the user-facing experience • Define and maintain Niche’s visual language, guideline documentation and component libraries, including typography, color, iconography, and UI patterns, for both people and AI agents (think Stitch’s Design.md) • Improve the contribution model so teams can effectively propose, build, and scale new components from real product use cases • Track the latest tools and resources, stay aware of what's available and recommending tools to adopt while being mindful of hype cycles • Clearly and honestly call out risks with reliance on AI tooling, strike a balance between short-term wins and long-term investments, and help advise on what people do best vs where agents can help.
Job Requirements
- 6+ years of relevant experience, with a track record of helping set design system vision/strategy and driving adoption
- Regular user of LLMs such as Claude or ChatGPT in your actual workflow; you have AI projects you're excited to share that are relevant to this role
- Proficient with modern design tooling (Figma, design tokens, component libraries, sandboxes/repos, prototyping tools) and a strong point of view on where they're headed
- Strong technical fluency: we use React, Typescript and Storybook, but you should also already understand how to work with APIs and automation platforms, navigate performance tradeoffs, and have the ability to wire systems together
- Sharp eye that recognizes excellent design craft, with attention to detail across component states, interaction patterns, visual consistency, and accessibility compliance (WCAG AA standards)
- Active and engaged design critique participant, representing not just the design systems perspective but how to finesse AI tools in order to achieve the best user experience possible
- Excited to experiment with Claude Cowork, Paper.design, and other post-Figma design-to-code and code-to-design AI tools
- Confidently prioritize your time across teams and projects, juggle high-urgency projects in parallel and recommend what you should focus on in order to drive impact
- Self-starter who uses their excellent communication and collaboration skills to act as a strategic operator: identify the root issue, diagnose it, propose a fix or just go ahead and fix it yourself
- Resilience and flexibility that helps you adapt to a fast-paced work environment, frequent changes, and considerable ambiguity.
Benefits
- Best-in-class 100% paid employee health plan, including vision and dental and supplemental coverage
- Flexible Paid Time Off Policy
- Stipend that allows you to build your work from home office in a style and function that suits your personal preferences
- Parental leave for all employees (12 weeks fully paid) in addition to short term disability for birthing parents
- Meaningful 401(k) with employer match
- Your ideas and work will make an immediate impact on our company and millions of users
- You will join a team that cares about you, our mission, our work - and celebrates our wins together!
