- Awareness of code frameworks: At least a basic understanding of patterns and constraints of React and native mobile frameworks. Demonstrable understanding of semantic HTML and CSS practices
- Experience using Design Tokens: You have worked with a tokenised design system and are comfortable using bespoke structures (our design system uses semantic design tokens and a closed loop via Supernova)
What you’ll do:
- You will work with a Staff Product Designer with significant experience, who leads the design system team and drives accessibility across the business
- Create components from page mock-ups and from scratch for three code platforms: Android, iOS and Web
- Conduct design reviews of coded components and review demo app examples to ensure they demonstrate the component variants
