About the Role

We're looking for our first Design Engineer to bridge design and code. You'll shape how Pace looks, feels, and works - and ship it. You are a designer with a frontend engineering habit who can't help but build.

Responsibilities

• Own end-to-end design from discovery through delivery, talking regularly to internal users, customers, and stakeholders to understand problems, then shipping solutions
• Prototype in code, creating interactive designs that can evolve directly into production rather than staying in the design tool
• Independently ship UI/UX fixes and polish to production, bringing consistency across the product
• Use your technical foundation to build and maintain a cohesive design system, identifying patterns across feature requests to create foundational solutions rather than one-offs
• Experiment constantly - tinkering and shipping new UI/UX to improve the customer experience, add delightful moments, and push the product forward

Requirements

• Thrive in ambiguity and high-autonomy environments
• Operated without a heavy process and delivered strong outcomes
• Energized by figuring things out
• Think in systems and build design languages, not just designs
• Spot through-lines across unrelated requests and turn them into foundational solutions that scale
• Have taste, showing intentionality and an eye for detail, and can articulate why you made the choices you made
• Strong collaborator who balances design and customer problems with engineering practices
• Shipping production code, not just prototypes
• Comfortable working in a production codebase (we use React/TypeScript)
• Move fast with a bias toward action
• Excited to build an AI-native product
• Startup background or founder experience (Bonus)
• Have an engineering background - whether frontend experience (intern+) or CS coursework (Bonus)
• Stay current with frontend engineering trends (Bonus)
