This role is ideal for a designer who enjoys systems thinking, cares deeply about craft and consistency, and is comfortable balancing long-term foundations with short-term product needs.

Key Responsibilities

Design System Ownership

• Own and evolve design system, including components, patterns, foundations (colour, typography, spacing, tokens), and interaction guidelines.
• Define and maintain standards to ensure consistency and usability across all products and modules.
• Act as the final design authority for system-level decisions and changes.

Component & Pattern Design

• Design, document, and maintain reusable UI components and interaction patterns.
• Anticipate product needs and proactively build scalable components to support future use cases.
• Ensure components are accessible, usable, and aligned with user and business needs.

Governance & Quality

• Establish clear contribution, review, and release processes for the design system.
• Review contributions from other designers and ensure adherence to system standards.
• Balance flexibility and consistency, knowing when to extend the system versus when to customise.

Collaboration with Engineering

• Work closely with engineers to ensure design system components are technically feasible, well-implemented, and maintainable.
• Partner with frontend engineers on component APIs, states, and edge cases.
• Support alignment between design components and their coded counterparts.

Enablement & Adoption

• Support product designers in using the design system effectively in their day-to-day work.
• Create clear documentation, guidelines, and examples to drive adoption.
• Advocate for the design system across teams and help embed it into product workflows.

Continuous Improvement

• Identify gaps, inconsistencies, and opportunities for improvement in existing product designs and the design system.
• Iterate on the system based on product learnings, user feedback, and team input.
• Stay up to date with best practices in design systems, accessibility, and UX.

Requirements

Must Have

• 3–6+ years of experience in UX, UI, or Product Design.
• Hands-on experience creating or maintaining a design system or large-scale component library.
• Strong visual and interaction design skills, with attention to detail.
• Solid understanding of accessibility standards (e.g. WCAG) and inclusive design principles.
• Experience working closely with engineers in a product development environment.
• Proficiency in modern design tools (Figma), including component libraries and design tokens.

Nice to Have

• Experience designing for enterprise, government, or complex workflow-based products.
• Familiarity with frontend technologies (e.g. React, CSS, design tokens) to better collaborate with engineers.
• Experience setting up design system governance models.
