  • Use LLMs, Cursor, and Claude Code to draft intent, scaffold components, and refactor code.
  • Build interactive prototypes in React and TypeScript to validate flows with real users.
  • Translate design principles into reusable components and patterns within the design system.
  • Design patterns that clearly communicate AI and automation actions to customers.
  • Ship high-performance, accessible interfaces that meet Core Web Vitals and semantic HTML standards.
  • Document and share AI-native workflows and prompts to improve team-wide productivity.

What we're looking for

  • Fluency in React, TypeScript or JavaScript, semantic HTML, and modern CSS.
  • Active use of tools like Cursor and Claude Code with clear opinions on obtaining high-quality output.
  • A portfolio showing high visual and interaction craft in live experiences or working prototypes.
  • A systems mindset and interest in building reusable components and patterns.
  • Care for performance, accessibility, and reliability as part of craft.
  • Clear written and verbal communication and comfort pairing with designers, engineers, and marketers.
  • Based in or open to relocate to NYC.
