About the Role
The UX Engineer is a hybrid role combining user experience design, front-end engineering, and full-stack development. This position sits at the cross-section of UX and UI, playing a critical leadership role in embedding design thinking within engineering teams and ensuring consistent adoption of design systems, UI Kits, and component standards. This role acts as a bridge between UX Design, Product Management, and Engineering, driving alignment, improving efficiency, and elevating the overall user experience of enterprise applications that embrace cutting-edge AI-driven workflows.
Responsibilities
- Translate UX research insights, interaction designs, and visual specifications into high-quality, performant, and scalable front-end implementations.
- Develop and maintain reusable UI components aligned with the organization’s design system and UI kit standards.
- Contribute to full-stack development efforts where needed, ensuring seamless integration between front-end experiences and backend services.
- Optimize applications for usability, accessibility (WCAG compliance), responsiveness, and performance.
- Serve as a primary steward of the organization’s design system, ensuring consistent implementation across all products and platforms.
- Enforce adherence to UI kit standards, including typography, color systems, spacing, tokens, and component usage.
- Partner with UX designers to evolve and scale the design system, translating design artifacts into coded components and documentation.
- Establish best practices for design-to-code workflows, including tooling such as Figma Dev Mode, design tokens, and component libraries.
- Lead and mentor UI Developers in adopting design thinking methodologies and user-centered design practices.
- Provide technical and UX guidance to ensure UI implementations align with intended user experiences.
- Conduct design and code reviews to ensure fidelity to UX specifications and adherence to design system standards.
- Develop training materials, workshops, and onboarding programs to elevate UI development maturity across the organization.
- Act as a bridge between UX Design, Product Management, and Engineering teams to align priorities and execution.
- Champion design thinking principles across engineering teams, embedding practices such as empathy mapping, journey mapping, and iterative prototyping.
- Collaborate in UX research activities, including user interviews, usability testing, and synthesis of insights.
- Advocate for early and continuous user validation throughout the development lifecycle.
- Encourage a culture of experimentation, rapid prototyping, and data-driven design decisions.
- Build high-fidelity prototypes and interactive proof-of-concepts to validate concepts before full-scale development.
- Leverage modern frameworks (e.g., React, Angular, Vue, Native Mobile) to create dynamic prototypes that closely mirror production environments.
- Accelerate design-to-development cycles through automation, reusable patterns, and AI-assisted workflows where applicable.
- Partner closely with UX Designers to ensure seamless translation of design intent into functional interfaces.
- Collaborate with Product Managers to align UX strategy with business goals and user needs.
- Work with backend engineers to ensure API design and system architecture support optimal user experiences.
- Engage with stakeholders to communicate design rationale, technical constraints, and implementation strategies.
- Establish and enforce front-end quality standards, including code quality, testing, and maintainability.
- Ensure accessibility compliance and advocate for inclusive design practices.
- Identify opportunities to improve workflows, tooling, and processes related to UX and UI engineering.
- Continuously evaluate emerging technologies and methodologies to enhance efficiency and product quality.
Requirements
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Human-Computer Interaction, Design, or related field.
- 8+ years of experience in front-end or full-stack development with strong UX/UI collaboration.
- Demonstrated expertise in modern front-end technologies (HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, React or similar frameworks).
- Solid understanding of UX design principles, including interaction design, usability, and information architecture.
- Experience working with design systems, component libraries, and design tokens.
- Strong proficiency in translating design tools (e.g., Figma) into production code.
- Experience collaborating in cross-functional agile teams.
- Experience leading full-stack front-end design and coding activities in enterprise software development.
- Familiarity with enterprise-scale applications or complex system design in semiconductor or equivalent high-tech industries.
- Background in building or scaling design systems in large organizations.
- Knowledge of backend technologies and APIs (Node.js, Python, etc.).
- Experience with AI-assisted development or design-to-code tooling.
