•Maintain and improve interaction principles, components, states, and usage guidance for the design system
•Use Figma, AI coding tools, and lightweight coded prototypes to test ideas; navigate frontend code and make smaller UI changes when useful
•Work closely with Engineers to understand technical constraints, review implementation in the live product, and adapt solutions while preserving user intent
•Use product data, customer feedback, and recurring support signals to improve workflows and the underlying UX system
Requirements
