Senior Design Engineer
Key Skills for This Role
Full Job Posting
Responsibilities
- Design, build, test, document, and maintain reusable pv-components within our internal design system (PitViper)
- Create thoughtful component APIs, composition patterns, variants, interaction states, and extension points that serve emerging product needs
- Ensure components work naturally within Vue applications while remaining useful as native Web Components in HTML and other server-rendered product surfaces
- Partner closely with product designers and engineers throughout the development process, from early exploration through production implementation
- Work directly in application code to refine layouts, interactions, responsive behavior, typography, spacing, focus management, transitions, and feedback states
- Last-mile design delivery: implementation of details that are often missed between a design file and production, including loading, empty, error, success, disabled, hover, and keyboard-navigation states
- Review product surfaces for visual, behavioral, and accessibility inconsistencies, then fix them at the appropriate level: within the feature, shared application code, or Pit Viper
- Improve the documentation, testing, release processes, and contribution practices that make Pit Viper easier for other teams to adopt
What you’ll bring to the role
5+ years building production web interfaces with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript or TypeScript
1+ years of direct, hands-on experience building or maintaining a design system, component library, or shared UI framework (not just consuming one)
Strong visual and interaction-design judgment. You can recognize why an interface feels unfinished and translate that observation into a concrete implementation
Production-level experience with Vue (or a comparable component framework — React/Svelte/Angular)
Demonstrable experience implementing accessibility standards (WCAG) in shipped components, not just design reviews
A portfolio, GitHub, or work sample showing before/after component or interaction work (not just visual mockups)
Bonus Points
Experience authoring and publishing native Web Components consumed outside their originating framework
Experience working across a mixed-framework stack — a JS framework alongside server-rendered templates (Django, Rails, HTMX, or similar)
Experience contributing to or maintaining a component library used by 10+ other engineers/teams
Familiarity with Storybook, Figma-to-code tooling, or similar design-system tooling
Experience in healthcare, fintech, or another data-dense enterprise product domain
Benefits
- Competitive pay with equity options
- Stellar healthcare plan options, including Medical, Dental, and Vision, with FSA, DCFSA, and HSA options
- Company-sponsored disability and life insurance
- Unlimited PTO
- 401(k) with 4% matching
- Fully remote work and flexible working hours
- $750 work-from-home setup budget
- Paid biannual in-person company summits
- Quarterly $150 co-hanging stipend to meet with coworkers
- Monthly $100 health and wellness benefit
- Generous paid family leave
- Annual $1,200 learning and development stipend
