Build and maintain production-grade components and patterns across core workflows, with accessibility and interaction fidelity built in from the start
Own a single documentation source of truth for Design and Engineering, with clear APIs, variants, and working examples teams can use without asking
Set contribution standards and guardrails that keep the design system the obvious default across Greenhouse's product teams
Partner with engineering to deliver implementation-ready patterns, reducing handoff loops and bespoke UI across feature teams
Champion design systems adoption across the organization and elevate the product through motion, interaction design, and refined brand moments
Requirements
5+ years of front-end engineering, UX engineering, or related field experience in a modern component framework, with strong component architecture skills. React + TypeScript strongly preferred.
Working knowledge of AI development tools (Claude, MCP, Code Sandbox, or similar) for code-ready output generation
Solid understanding of accessibility best practices (WCAG) and state modeling, demonstrated in shipped work
Fluency working with design tokens, layout systems, and interaction states, with a genuine interest in visual and interaction design
A documentation-first approach: teams should be able to self-serve from what you write
Demonstrated experience shipping design systems work at another organization. Field-tested knowledge, not just theoretical familiarity.
Storybook (or similar) component documentation and showcase workflow experience, a plus
Visual regression testing and CI quality gate experience, a plus
Design token pipeline experience and tooling, a plus
