Product Design Engineer (Frontend Developer + UX/UI Designer)

We're looking for a Product Design Engineer who can take a product requirement written in plain language and turn it into a polished, working dashboard - designing the experience and building the frontend, wired up to our backend services.

You'll own the path from idea to interface: shaping how a feature should look and behave, then shipping it.

This is a hybrid role for someone who is equally comfortable in Figma and in a codebase, and who cares about both how a product feels to use and how cleanly it's built.

What You'll Do

• Translate textual product requirements and user needs into clear UI flows, wireframes, and shipped interfaces.
• Design functional, modern, and accessible UX/UI for data-rich dashboards and internal tools.
• Build responsive frontend interfaces and integrate them with backend APIs (REST/GraphQL).
• Design and implement data visualizations - charts, tables, filters, and real-time views.
• Collaborate with product, backend, and design stakeholders to refine requirements and resolve ambiguity early.
• Maintain a shared component library and design system to keep the product consistent and fast to extend.
• Own quality end to end: performance, accessibility, edge cases, and visual polish.

What We're Looking For

• 3+ years building production web interfaces, with a portfolio that shows both design sensibility and engineering depth.
• Strong command of TypeScript and a modern framework (React, ideally with Next.js).
• Solid UX/UI fundamentals: layout, hierarchy, interaction design, and accessibility (WCAG).
• Proficiency with Figma (or similar) for designing and prototyping before building.
• Experience integrating frontends with backend APIs - handling auth, async data, loading/error states, and caching.
• Comfort building dashboards: data tables, filtering, and charting libraries.
• Ability to work from ambiguous requirements and make sound product and design decisions independently.

Nice to Have

• Backend familiarity (Node.js, or another server language) and an understanding of API design.
• Experience with real-time data (WebSockets / SSE).
• Familiarity with design systems and component documentation (e.g., Storybook).
• Experience with testing (unit, integration, and end-to-end).
