## About the role

We’re looking for a Senior Design Engineer to help close the gap between how Front is designed and how Front is built. Front has a mature, complex product surface with more than a decade of UI investment, a rich Figma library, and a large production codebase. This role is for someone who is equally comfortable in Figma and in frontend code, and who wants to turn design systems from static documentation into living, production-quality systems that help product teams move faster.

## What they're looking for

- 6+ years of experience designing and building production frontend experiences, ideally in complex B2B SaaS, enterprise software, developer tools, or similarly deep product domains
- Strong frontend engineering skills with modern web technologies and component-based architecture. You do not need to have used Front’s exact stack, but you should be able to ramp quickly in a large, mature codebase
- High UI/UX craft and strong product taste. You can evaluate whether an interface is not only visually polished, but also usable, accessible, flexible, and maintainable
- Experience building or maintaining component libraries, Storybook documentation, visual regression workflows, design-token pipelines, Figma workflows/plugins, or similar design-engineering infrastructure
- Strong accessibility fundamentals, including semantic HTML, ARIA patterns, keyboard interaction models, focus management, and inclusive component states
- Strong communication skills. You can explain technical and design-system decisions clearly to both specialists and non-specialists
