What I'm looking for

A Lead or Senior Product Designer role where design systems are the product, not a side project. I do my best work embedded in platform or design-ops teams building shared component libraries, token architectures, and the internal processes that help engineering ship faster.

  • Design Systems Lead, Staff Designer, or equivalent IC role
  • Companies with ≥ 30 engineers — enough surface area to feel the system's impact
  • Fintech, healthcare, SaaS, government tech, or enterprise tools
  • Teams that value documentation, accessibility, and cross-functional buy-in

Background

11 years building design systems and product interfaces — from a startup's first component library to an enterprise system serving 20 million users. My work consistently shortens design-to-dev handoff time (2.6× at my last engagement) by aligning teams around a single source of truth instead of per-project deliverables.

I've worked with startups, government agencies, and Fortune 500 companies across fintech, healthcare, and SaaS. I care about the craft: token architecture, accessible components, Figma-to-code parity, and the change management that actually gets engineering to adopt the system.

Tell me about the role

Two business-day reply. The more concrete the brief, the faster I can tell you whether it's a fit.

Direct-hire only — no agency placements or contract-to-hire.
