About the role
We're looking for a design engineer to help build and maintain Waypoint, our design system, across both the Figma library and the production codebase. This is not a "designer who codes a little" or an "engineer who dabbles in Figma" role. You should be genuinely fluent on both sides, comfortable defining a component's behavior and states in Figma one hour and shipping the same component to npm the next. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- Own and evolve the Figma library for Waypoint: component structure, variants, properties, and documentation, so it stays a reliable source of truth for design teams
- Build and maintain core Waypoint components, contributing directly to our component packages alongside the design engineering team
- Work across our token pipeline, keeping design tokens in Figma and their code representations (CSS custom properties, Tailwind config) tightly synced
- Partner with product designers to translate new patterns into system components, and with product engineers to make sure those components are easy to adopt correctly
- Help define and refine the workflows and tooling that connect Figma and code (sync scripts, plugins, documentation sites) rather than relying on manual handoff
- Write clear documentation and usage guidance so the system scales without you being the bottleneck
