Design Engineer

Required

• Work AI-first: Use AI to translate ideas into working code, prototype different approaches, generate components, and iterate on implementations. Keep AI in the loop from initial concept through implementation.
• Obsess over the last 5–10%: Own how users experience and interact with the product, from transitions to the tiniest details most people overlook. Work closely with our design leads to bring their direction to life in code, then push it further.
• Help define our motion principles. Transitions, animations, and micro-interactions that feel snappy, smooth, and exciting.
• Connect design systems, product, and brand: Turn Novig’s design principles into scalable components and repeatable patterns. Evolve the design system to make distinctive, brand-driven experiences easier to create and maintain.
• Prototype in code and test with users: Build interactive prototypes, then gather feedback through user research tools. Use those insights to iterate on user flows before turning them into scalable, production-ready patterns.
• Prioritize performance and accessibility: Build experiences that are fast, inclusive, and reliable. Follow best practices for semantic structure, navigation, focus states, and motion preferences. Partner with engineers to debug and optimize over time.
• Move fast with ownership and curiosity: You move quickly and adapt well in fast-paced environments, with a bias toward ownership and action and clear and thoughtful communication.
