About the Role
We are looking for a Senior Design Engineer who thrives at the intersection of interaction design, front-end engineering, and emerging technologies. You will collaborate on early-stage ideas, bringing them to life as high-fidelity prototypes, proofs-of-concept, and internal tools. Your work will help teams learn faster, make better decisions, and automate manual tasks. You will join a Design Engineering team within the Viewing Experience, Product and Design organization at Peacock, focusing on building prototypes for new features and creating design tools, Figma plugins, and AI-powered utilities.
Responsibilities
- Partner closely with designers, product managers, engineers, and user researchers to build prototypes that support design exploration, usability testing, experimentation, and stakeholder alignment
- Rapidly translate abstract ideas and early concepts into interactive, high-fidelity prototypes across web, mobile, and TV platforms
- Design and build internal tools, utilities, and Figma plugins that improve design quality, consistency, speed, and scalability
- Explore and apply AI-driven approaches to design, prototyping, automation, content exploration, and workflow optimization
- Integrate live or simulated data into prototypes by building or consuming APIs
- Improve and evolve initial design concepts through iterative prototyping and feedback
- Build and maintain shared toolkits, frameworks, and codebases that accelerate prototyping across the team
- Take technical and creative ownership of projects, including starting new frameworks, tools, or experimental codebases from scratch
- Stay current with industry trends, emerging interaction patterns, and new technologies, and proactively apply them where they create leverage
- Continuously look for opportunities to improve how the team prototypes, experiments, and collaborates
- Mentor and support other design engineers, helping raise the bar for craft, technical quality, and impact across the team
Requirements
- 5+ years of relevant professional experience in design engineering, front-end engineering, or a related hybrid role
- Portfolio of relevant work and code samples demonstrating strong interaction design sensibility, technical execution, and polished final outcomes
- Proven experience contributing to software projects in a team environment, including peer code reviews, version control, and shared coding standards
- Strong written, verbal, and presentation skills, with the ability to clearly explain ideas to technical and non-technical audiences
- Strong experience building and/or consuming APIs and working with live or structured data
- Demonstrated ability to work cross-functionally with designers, engineers, product managers, and user researchers
- Comfort working autonomously in ambiguous problem spaces, from concept through execution
- Solid understanding of interaction design principles, user experience best practices, and modern design workflows
- Experience presenting and demoing work to peers, cross-functional partners, and leadership
- Experience integrating AI capabilities into prototypes, internal tools, or workflows (e.g., content generation, summarization, analysis, automation)
- Curiosity and technical fluency around AI models, APIs, and limitations, with an emphasis on practical application over theory
- Experience developing Progressive Web Apps (PWA)
- Experience developing Figma plugins and working with the Figma API
- Experience working with video content or media-rich interfaces
- Familiarity with modern frameworks and languages such as TypeScript, Next.js, or LightningJS
- Experience with platforms and tools such as Node.js, GraphQL, GitHub, AWS, Azure, GCP, Cloudflare, Firebase, Mixpanel, Contentful, Vercel, Xcode, and Apache
- Experience with React Native, Swift, and SwiftUI
- Experience with web and cloud infrastructure and deployment workflows
- Experience building tools or experiences for international or global audiences
- Familiarity with video streaming, TV-based platforms, or large-scale consumer applications
- Experience developing mobile applications or cross-platform experiences
- Prior experience in experimentation-heavy, innovation-focused, or prototyping-centered teams
