As a Frontend Engineer Design Systems, you’ll be part of our remote-first, cross-functional product development team, consisting of product managers, designers, testers, and developers. You’ll work on improving and extending our internal design system called Bliss. Bliss is powering all kinds of different areas of the BRYTER platform and has become an essential part of how we design and develop solutions for our customers.
In this role you will help make concepts, design, and also develop components for Bliss. This role is also about improving our designer developer collaboration, which includes participating in design critiques about Bliss components, improving the Bliss toolkit, and contributing to better guides and documentation, to make the usage of Bliss as straightforward as possible.
Your Profile
👉 Deep Frontend knowledge
At its core, Bliss offers a framework-agnostic component library, which only relies on HTML and (S)CSS – this is our foundation. You are experienced with these technologies and know what to focus on when building semantic, performant, and accessible components.
👉 Experience with building component-based web applications with a modern JavaScript framework, such as React or Vue
You already built component-based web applications with a JavaScript framework like Vue or React. You know how to build a component API for easy reusability (e.g. with props).
👉 The intersection between design and development
You are a developer who cares about good user experience and detailed design. As part of this you have an understanding of good design and love to collaborate with designers to come to a perfect solution.
👉 You think in systems
You know that a design system is more than just components and you’re ready to contribute beyond software development by creating concepts, doing research, and helping prioritize different needs and requests. Your objective is to deliver a toolkit that helps developers and brings value to our customers.
👉 Ideally, you have…
- Worked with and on a design system already
- Experience with testing practices in frontend codebases
- Experience with accessibility standards
- Experience with build tools like Webpack
- Experience with building performant frontends
- The ability to handle a large volume of stakeholder input
