  • Ensure components are responsive, accessible, performant, and compatible across browsers and devices.
  • Support design system governance, including contribution processes and adoption across product teams.
  • Coordinate releases and collaborate with other engineering teams to manage dependencies effectively.
  • Use AI-assisted development tools to support productivity, testing, documentation, accessibility improvements, and workflow automation.
  • Promote best practices for architecture, code quality, testing, documentation, and accessibility.
  • Help improve design-to-code workflows and mentor engineers contributing to shared systems.
  • Lead code reviews and help manage timelines, priorities, and stakeholder expectations.

Skills

  • 5+ years of experience in web and mobile application development, including work with reusable UI frameworks or design systems.
  • 3+ years of hands-on experience with React Native and ReactJS.
  • Experience turning Figma designs into reusable, production-ready components.
  • Strong understanding of design tokens, theming, and scalable branding systems.
  • Experience developing, testing, and deploying user-facing web and mobile applications.
  • Working knowledge of accessibility standards and inclusive design practices.
  • Ability to collaborate effectively in Agile, cross-functional, and distributed teams.
  • Strong communication skills and a thoughtful, team-oriented approach.
  • Experience building or maintaining enterprise design systems, shared libraries, or front-end platforms.
  • Comfort working on performance optimization and platform-specific considerations for iOS and Android.

Preferred Skills

  • Experience with Git, Redux, and React Native Web.
  • Familiarity with RESTful JSON APIs.
  • Knowledge of C# and .NET technologies.
  • Experience in healthcare or digital health environments, including Epic MyChart or similar systems.
