Senior Product Designer

What You'll Do

• Build production-quality prototypes (and, when appropriate, ship production front-end code) to validate UX direction quickly—often on tight timelines.
• Own and evolve Alchemy’s design system in practice: build and maintain reusable components, patterns, and interaction primitives that scale across products.
• Translate design intent into high-quality React/TypeScript UI, with attention to spacing, hierarchy, motion, and interaction polish.
• Drive system scalability: identify gaps, propose improvements, and ship additions that make the product ecosystem more consistent and faster to build.
• Partner closely with product designers to improve the craft and feasibility of design work—bringing an engineer’s pragmatism and a designer’s taste.
• Collaborate tightly with product engineers to reduce rework and make the path from prototype → implementation smoother.
• Improve “how we build UI” muscle across teams: documentation, examples, and workflow improvements that raise the baseline.
• Build for an AI-native product future: create interaction patterns and UI foundations that support rapid experimentation and iteration in AI-driven experiences.
• Contribute to design-system adoption and quality: tokens/components/docs, accessibility standards, and tooling (e.g., Storybook) when needed.
• Help teams iterate in short cycles (e.g., ~5–10 day “idea → prototype → decision” loops), bringing clarity to what’s possible and what’s worth building.

What We're Looking For

• Strong front-end fundamentals and comfort building interactive UI (e.g., React + TypeScript; equivalent stacks welcome).
• Systems-minded builder: you’ve shipped and maintained component libraries / design systems (tokens, components, documentation, adoption).
• A designer’s eye: you care about hierarchy, spacing, typography, interaction details, and visual polish.
• Proven ability to prototype quickly without sacrificing craft—and to choose the right fidelity for the question at hand.
• Ability to operate in ambiguity and move fast with high ownership.
• Clear communicator across disciplines; you can translate between design intent and technical constraints.

Bonus: accessibility fluency, Storybook (or similar), motion/animation experience, and experience scaling design systems across multiple product surfaces.
