Product /Design Systems Designer

We are looking for a Product Designer with strong Design Systems experience and technical fluency. While this is primarily a design role, it operates at the intersection of design and engineering, with work spanning Figma, code, documentation and component logic.

A key focus is evolving the design system for AI and agentic use. This includes clear component contracts, meaningful token structures, machine-readable documentation and guidance that can be reliably understood by designers, engineers and AI agents.

YOUR MISSION:

• Define and track design system health metrics, including adoption, reuse, design-code alignment and drift, and use these insights to prioritize improvements

• Translate design system decisions into clear guidance for designers, engineers and AI agents

• Identify and close gaps between Figma, documentation and code, treating all three as connected parts of the same source of truth

• Validate components and patterns in real product contexts to identify implementation issues or incorrect usage

• Prototype interactions in code where needed to test decisions and uncover edge cases

• Use AI to support design system workflows, including audits, documentation, validation and reducing manual maintenance

• Enable Product teams with agent-ready design systems to support automated workflows and processes

YOUR TECHNICAL EXPERTISE:

• Strong experience with design systems across components, patterns, documentation and governance

• Practical knowledge of HTML, CSS, responsive behaviour, component constraints and front-end implementation concepts

• Ability to prototype realistic interactions and edge cases without operating as a full-time engineer

• Confidence reviewing design-code alignment and identifying where implementation differs from design system intent

• Hands-on experience using AI tools in design or documentation workflows

• Working understanding of how AI agents consume structured documentation and tokens

• Comfort defining and reporting on metrics and using data to shape priorities

YOUR PERSONALITY:

• Strong collaboration skills across design, engineering, product and platform teams

THE FACTS:

• Project start: asap

• Hourly rate: depending on skill set and experience

• Workload: Part-time, 2–3 days

• Duration: Long-term / rolling, with no specific project timeline

• Location: Fully remote

• Project language: English
