Responsibilities

  • Design, build, and ship product features from problem understanding and design exploration through production frontend code.
  • Create polished interactions and experiences covering transitions, micro-interactions, keyboard behavior, responsiveness, and accessibility.
  • Prototype agentic interactions in real code, including AI-agent results, decision requests, and progress states.
  • Review pull requests, contribute to feature branches, and improve shared UI foundations and component libraries.
  • Bridge design and engineering by shaping solutions in Figma or code and collaborating with both designers and engineers.

Requirements

  • Experience working autonomously across the full scope from an ambiguous problem to a shipped feature.
  • Regular use of AI tools such as Claude, Cursor, v0, or ChatGPT as part of the development workflow.
