Job Description

About the role

As a Design Engineer at Thatch, you’ll sit at the intersection of design and engineering, helping shape how people experience our product through thoughtful, beautiful user interfaces. You’ll collaborate closely with designers, product managers, and other engineers to refine our application’s UI and bring consistency across the product. You’ll help iterate and evolve the design system and frontend infrastructure that powers our growing product.

This is a hybrid role that blends a designer’s eye with an engineer’s craft and cares deeply about the details that make an interface feel right.

What you'll do

  • Build and maintain a scalable, accessible, and reusable component library used across the product.
  • Work closely with Product and Design to improve consistency and coherence across our UI.
  • Contribute to the evolution of our frontend architecture, tooling, and developer experience.
  • Champion best practices in accessibility, performance, and responsive design.

Background we're looking for

  • 6+ years experience as a frontend focused engineer or engineer focused on building a design system.
  • Experience working closely with product designers and design systems.
  • Demonstrated ability to bring high-fidelity designs to production code with pixel-level attention to detail.
  • Understanding of accessible UI patterns and a desire to make the web usable for everyone.
  • A balance of visual sensibility and technical depth. You can talk as easily about component APIs as color contrast ratios.

Experience we’d be particularly excited about

  • Experience contributing to or maintaining a design system or component library.
  • Familiarity with animation and interaction libraries (Framer Motion, Radix UI, etc.).
  • Experience with performance profiling and frontend build tooling.

What to expect

We interview rigorously based on integrity, talent, and drive; the trust we display in our teammates from day 1 is a reflection of the confidence we have in this process. We aim to evaluate the things you’ll be doing every day as best we can, and we move quickly. Here's what to expect:
