Design Engineer
San Francisco Bay Area (Onsite) $200K-$290K + Equity Relocation and visa sponsorship is available Generous Benefits and Perks
Your foundation is design. You happen to be highly capable in code as well.
We've partnered with a fast-growing AI startup that's building products used by thousands of companies deploying AI-powered voice agents at scale. They're looking for a Design Engineer who can bridge design and engineering while helping elevate the quality, consistency, and scalability of every customer-facing experience. The team is seeking top-tier talent to tackle complex infrastructure challenges, and the compensation reflects that level of ownership, with a highly competitive base, bonus structure, and strong Bay Area benefits.
NOTE We're looking for a designer who codes, not an engineer who designs.
Your current and recent experience should reflect a design-first background with strong front-end capabilities.
What You'll Be Working With:
Figma, React, TypeScript, HTML/CSS, Design Systems, Component Libraries, Storybook, Cursor, Claude Code, AI-assisted development workflows
What We're Looking For:
- 5+ years of full-time experience in product, UX, digital, or design systems roles with "Designer" in your title
- Advanced expertise in Figma, including creating, organizing, and scaling sophisticated component ecosystems
- Strong command of modern frontend technologies, with the ability to develop reusable UI components using React, TypeScript, HTML, and CSS
- Extensive experience designing, evolving, and governing design systems across growing product environments
- Deep understanding of design architecture, including tokens, spacing methodologies, reusable patterns, and maintaining consistency across complex interfaces
- Demonstrated success delivering production-ready UI components that are actively used within customer-facing products
- Hands-on experience leveraging AI-assisted development platforms such as Cursor, Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, or similar tools to accelerate and enhance development workflows
- Proven ability to combine design thinking with technical execution to create scalable, maintainable product experiences
- Strong perspective on where AI can improve efficiency, quality, and collaboration throughout the design and development process
You'll Stand Out If You:
- Have helped build or scale a mature design system
- Think in systems, patterns, and reusable architecture
- Prototype directly in code instead of waiting for perfect specifications
- Obsess over spacing, alignment, consistency, and visual polish Enjoy collaborating equally with designers and engineers
- Can identify where AI accelerates development and where human judgment still matters
Score Bonus Point with:
- Storybook experience
- Motion design and interaction design expertise
- Accessibility and inclusive design knowledge
- Experience at a design-led SaaS company
- Interest in helping teams adopt AI-native workflows and best practices
This is an opportunity to build products at the intersection of AI, design, and engineering while helping define how modern product teams work together.
- Benefits and Perks
- 100% covered medical, dental, and vision Benefits and Perks
- Daily meal support for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks
- Wellness reimbursement to support your health and fitness
- Commuter support for gas, transit, and getting to and from work
- Monthly phone reimbursement
This is a 100% onsite/hybrid position based in the San Francisco Bay area.
US Visas: Our client is open to sponsoring work authorization for qualified candidates, including H1B/H-1B, TN, L-1, E-3, F-1 (OPT/CPT), and O-1 visas.
WORK SCHEDULE - (6) working days - 5 days working onsite in SF Bay area, Sunday is WFH
To apply, please submit your resume, cover letter, and a link to your portfolio and case studies for consideration.
We receive a high volume of applications, so we're unable to respond individually. If your qualifications align, well, reach out by phone, email, or text. Message and data rates may apply.
