[Hiring] Frontend Design Systems Engineer @Seeq

Role Description

This is a frontend system engineering role focused on evolving Seeq’s design system and reusable application patterns for a complex enterprise product. You will shape not just UI primitives, but the broader frontend foundations that teams use to build clear, consistent, high-quality experiences across data-dense workflows.

What You Will Do:

• Lead the evolution of Seeq’s frontend system, improving component quality, consistency, usability, and developer experience across the product.
• Work closely with UX, Product, and Engineering teams to understand needs, set priorities, and craft reusable frontend foundations that raise the quality of the product.
• Understand that great interface work starts with understanding how people actually work, thinking about workflows, not just pixels.
• Help shape foundational components, higher-order blocks, page-level templates, and reusable application patterns that support real user workflows.
• Be thoughtful about how AI is changing product interfaces and how a frontend system should evolve to stay useful, elegant, and effective.
• Leverage the best of the open-source ecosystem rather than building everything from scratch, adapting systems like shadcn/ui to fit Seeq’s product, standards, and workflows.
• Ensure our component system delivers excellent developer experience in an AI-assisted world by creating components, patterns, APIs, structure, naming, and documentation that are easy to understand, adopt, and use correctly.

Qualifications

• Exceptional frontend engineer with strong product sense, visual taste, and systems thinking.
• Real experience creating, evolving, and shipping design systems or component libraries used in production applications.
• Highly effective in React, Typescript, and TailwindCSS.
• Ability to build frontend systems that are composable, accessible, robust, and ergonomic for other engineers.
• Experience in defining and building larger reusable blocks and application patterns.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with a focus on documentation and clear conventions.
• Strong ownership and agency, proactively identifying gaps and driving improvements.
• Experience in writing clear, useful, and engaging documentation for design systems.

Requirements

• At least 10 years of professional experience in software development, with a solid record of designing and building sophisticated software systems.
• Expert in JavaScript/TypeScript, React, TailwindCSS, and HTML primitives.
• Strong understanding of software design principles, patterns, and best practices.
• Excellent problem-solving and analytical skills, with great attention to detail.
• Familiar with agile development methodologies and tools, such as Scrum or Kanban.
• Proven technical leadership skills, with the ability to guide, mentor, and collaborate with other engineers.
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills, effective in a cross-functional team environment.
• Familiar with design tools like Figma to help translate designs into production-ready code.
• Ability to build responsive, scalable web experiences across devices and partner with designers to ensure visual consistency.
• Ability to implement accessibility standards, ensuring keyboard navigation, screen reader support, and designing inclusive experiences.

Benefits

• Competitive salary plus bonus incentives ($144,000 - 170,000 USD, determined by the level you are hired in).
• 12-week paid Seeq family leave.
• Unlimited PTO.
• Internet and mobile phone reimbursements.
