Are you a fit?
Sounds awesome, right? Now, let’s make sure you’re a good fit for the role:
Key Responsibilities
- Build and refine components for Index, our core design system. You'll create new components based on product team needs and improve existing ones to handle edge cases, accessibility requirements, and multi-brand applications.
- Maintain and organize our Figma libraries, ensuring they're structured clearly, documented well, and easy for other designers to use. You'll keep things tidy as the system grows and evolves.
- Create clear, useful documentation that helps designers understand when and how to use components correctly. Good documentation means fewer questions and more consistent implementation across teams.
- Work with design tokens and Figma variables to ensure the system supports theming, multi-brand needs, and maintainability at scale.
- Help bridge Index and product-area extensions, ensuring patterns flow appropriately between the core system and the specialized libraries that build on it.
- Partner with engineering on design-to-code alignment when needed, helping ensure what's in Figma matches what gets built.
- Work independently while staying connected to the core team. You'll manage your own work, communicate proactively about progress and blockers, and stay aligned on priorities through async collaboration.
- Maintain high craft standards in everything you contribute. Design systems work is detail work—precision and consistency matter.
Must-have Skills
- 4+ years of product design experience, with meaningful time spent working on or contributing to design systems.
- A portfolio showing design systems work—whether building components, creating documentation, or establishing patterns. We want to see how you think about systematic design problems.
- Strong Figma skills, including experience with component architecture, variants, auto-layout, and variables. You know how to build things that scale and that other designers can actually use.
- Experience with design tokens and an understanding of how they enable theming, consistency, and multi-brand support.
- Solid understanding of design fundamentals—typography, spacing, color, and interaction patterns. You can explain why something should be a certain way, not just how to build it.
- Knowledge of accessibility standards (WCAG) and how they apply to component design. Accessibility should be built in, not bolted on.
- Strong documentation skills. You can write clearly and create guidelines that people actually read and follow.
- Ability to work independently and manage your own priorities. You're proactive about communicating and don't need constant check-ins to stay on track.
- Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience in Design, HCI, or a related field.
Nice-to-have:
- AI Tooling Proficiency: Leverage one or more AI tools to optimize and augment day-to-day work, including drafting, analysis, research, or process automation. Provide recommendations on effective AI use and identify opportunities to streamline workflows.
- Understanding of how design systems connect to code (CSS, React component APIs, etc.)
- Experience with design system versioning and contribution workflows
- Familiarity with multi-brand or white-label design system challenges
- Experience working with distributed or fully remote teams
- Background in news media, publishing, or content-heavy products
- Knowledge of design system tooling beyond Figma (Storybook, Zeroheight, etc.)
