Job Description
Design Engineer
Pixelmatters
• Your role sits at the intersection of design and engineering. • You'll build websites as systems of reusable blocks, assemble templates and pages from them, and prepare the CMS that powers them. • You’ll create the interactions, micro-interactions, and animations that make our work feel alive. • You'll work closely with designers to bring interactions and animations to life. • You'll be hands-on with code while keeping an eye on the bigger picture, understanding how your technical decisions impact the end product and the user experience.
Job Requirements
- At least 3 years of experience as a Front-End Engineer or Design Engineer.
- Solid grasp of semantic HTML, modern CSS, and SEO fundamentals.
- Experience with React and Next.js, including building websites as systems of reusable components.
- Experience implementing interactions, animations, and micro-interactions.
- Experience working with Content Management Systems (Payload CMS and/or WordPress, but others are valuable), including modeling content structures and preparing content migrations.
- Fluency with agentic AI tools (such as Claude Code or Cursor) as a regular part of your development workflow.
- Ability to deliver solutions that meet high standards of performance, accessibility, and cross-browser and device compatibility.
- Familiar with version control systems such as Git.
- Effective and clear communication with engineers and designers.
- Good understanding of English and Portuguese (written and spoken).
Benefits
- Competitive salary and benefits, including health insurance.
- A design-led environment where craft is the standard, and where engineers work side by side with designers rather than downstream of them.
- Agentic AI tooling provided from day one, including a Claude Code license and a shared library of team-built skills, commands, and integrations.
- We have a brand new office located at Porto’s downtown, while continuing to back our “Remote as default, Office as an option” policy.
