Learn more at applied.co.\nWe are an in-office company, and our expectation is that full-time employees primarily work from their Applied Intuition office 5 days a week. However, we also recognize the importance of flexibility and trust our employees to manage their schedules responsibly. This may include occasional remote work, starting the day with morning meetings from home before heading to the office, or leaving earlier when needed to accommodate family commitments. This in-office expectation does not apply to contractor positions\nAbout the role\nWe're looking for a Senior Software Engineer who specializes in frontend engineering and has deep design system experience. You will set how our teams build, share, and ship user interfaces across a growing set of products. Many teams build UI-heavy libraries and tools, and you will make it fast and consistent for them to do so. You will also help shape how our interfaces adapt to a new generation of AI-driven, dynamically generated experiences.\nYou'll work independently and own problems from first design through production. You'll also act as a technical leader and a multiplier for the engineers around you. We're building in an AI-native world. You should be comfortable working with agents while still caring about code quality. We see agents as a chance to help the whole company build better, safer code.\nWhat you'll do\nOwn the architecture, evolution, and adoption of our design system and shared component libraries, working independently from design through delivery.\n\nCreate standardized tooling, templates, and build and distribution workflows that let teams and agents create, package, and ship UI libraries consistently, with less duplicated effort.\n\nPartner with product engineering teams across the company to understand their frontend needs, gather feedback, and turn it into reusable, well-documented solutions.\n\nCollaborate closely with product designers and system designers to create flexible, extensible UI tooling and solutions.\n\nDesign frontend foundations that scale, including theming, accessibility, performance, versioning, testing, and documentation practices.\n\nExplore and build frameworks for dynamic, AI-assisted interfaces, and help set the standards that keep them reliable and consistent.\n\nWrite and contribute significantly to design documents, and drive technical decisions through to alignment.\n\nMentor other engineers and raise the bar for frontend quality and best practices.\n\nQualifications\nBachelor's degree in Computer Science or related field\n\n6+ years of professional experience as a frontend engineer, with deep expertise in modern TypeScript and component-based frameworks such as React.\n\nHands-on experience building, maintaining, and driving adoption of a design system or shared component library.\n\nAbility to carry out design system work independently and end to end, including API design, tokens, theming, documentation, release, and consumer support.\n\nExperience with frontend build, packaging, and distribution tooling for shared libraries.\n\nSignificant contributions to design documents.\n\nExperience mentoring software engineers.\n\nStrong collaboration and communication skills, and comfort working with cross-functional users and teams.\n\nNice to have\nExperience building interfaces for AI or agent-driven products.\n\nExperience with data visualization, charting, or map and graphics rendering in the browser.\n\nDon’t meet every single requirement? If you’re excited about this role but your past experience doesn’t align perfectly with every qualification in the job description, we encourage you to apply anyway. You may be just the right candidate for this or other roles.\nApplied Intuition is an equal opportunity employer and federal contractor or subcontractor.
