Company: 6Sense
Location: San Francisco
Posted on: October 26, 2024

Job Description:

Purpose of the Job
As the first UX Engineer fully dedicated to the 6sense design system (6DS), you will help build an enterprise-level design system that elevates our products and improves team efficiency. In addition to acting as the technical liaison between UX and Engineering, you will deliver design system components that are easy for designers and developers to use. All of our engineers will continue to contribute to 6DS alongside their designer counterparts, but this front-end engineering role will play a unique role in helping to seamlessly bring together the concerns of both development and design.
This is not a designer or project manager role. If you are a Senior Frontend Engineer with experience leading efforts within a Design System team to plan, code, document, and deliver components, then this may be a great opportunity for you.
Responsibilities & Accountabilities


  • Build reusable, single-source-of-truth (SSOT), accessible UI components in React, including design tokens and code-focused Storybook documentation.
  • Ensure components are built for scalability, so that they can be extended as needed over time.
  • Facilitate communication and collaboration between design, development, and product management to ensure the design system meets cross-functional user needs.
  • Understand the why behind proposed component designs and assess technical feasibility. Scope development efforts.
  • Communicate component changes and updates to the wider Tech team.
  • Work closely with product engineers to help them correctly implement SSOT components in our products.
  • Contribute to design system project planning, including estimating time to build components and effort required to implement components across the platform.
  • Help review incoming requests to add new components and extend existing components.
  • As needed, develop prototypes and conduct user testing to gather feedback and iterate on design components and patterns.

    Educational and Experience Requirements
    A portfolio or live design system that showcases:

    • Your experience building and documenting SSOT UI components as a senior member of a design system team. Must show expertise in React, implementing/managing/using Storybook, HTML, CSS, JavaScript.
    • How you approach building accessibility UI components.
    • How you implemented design tokens and how you work in Figma development tools.

      Competencies and Behaviors

      • Clear expertise in front-end engineering and building SSOT design system components.
      • Deep understanding of usability principles.
      • Excellent communication skills with a proven ability to drive coordination across cross-functional teams.
      • Strong English writing skills to facilitate clear, concise component documentation.

        Base Salary Range: $137,303 to $201,385. The base salary range represents the anticipated low and high end of the base salary range for this position. Actual salaries may vary and may be above or below the range based on various factors, including but not limited to work location and experience. The base salary is one component of 6sense's total compensation package for this position. Other compensation may include a bonus program or commission plan, and stock options if approved by 6sense's board. In addition, 6sense provides a variety of benefits, including generous health insurance coverage, life, and disability insurance, a 401K employer matching program, paid holidays, self-care days, and paid time off (PTO).
