Job summary

Jobgether SRL in the Netherlands seeks a Senior Product Design Engineer to own core product surfaces end-to-end. You will craft production-ready frontend components using HTML, CSS, TypeScript, and React, and evolve a shared design system with a strong emphasis on accessibility and performance.

You will prototype with AI tools, collaborate asynchronously, and contribute to a globally used scheduling platform’s design infrastructure while delivering polished, reusable primitives.

Qualifications

• Proven experience as a product designer who has evolved substantially into design engineering, with ownership of complex and ambiguous product areas from problem definition through launch and iteration.
• Exceptional product design craft combined with strong frontend engineering skills in HTML, CSS, TypeScript, and React.
• Demonstrated ability to independently turn product and design concepts into polished, working implementations without relying on another engineer to make ideas production-ready.
• Strong experience designing and engineering custom UI components and primitives, rather than primarily consuming third-party component libraries.
• Deep expertise in headless primitive composition, with experience using Base UI, Radix, or similar technologies; direct experience with open-source component systems is a strong advantage.
• Strong understanding of motion design principles, including timing, easing, choreography, and the judgment to determine when animation adds value.
• Daily experience using AI-assisted development tools such as Claude Code, Cursor, v0, or comparable solutions.
• Deep familiarity with web standards and browser-native platform primitives, with the ability to understand what the browser already provides before introducing additional libraries.
• Proven experience building and maintaining design systems, including understanding the distinction between reusable primitives, components, and product-specific patterns.
• Strong accessibility knowledge covering WCAG, ARIA, assistive technologies, keyboard interaction, focus management, and accessible design patterns.

Responsibilities

• Own core product surfaces from concept through production, including booking flows, scheduling primitives, and team and enterprise experiences.
• Translate product problems and hypotheses into high-quality designs, prototypes, and production-ready frontend components.
• Build and test working prototypes using modern AI-assisted development tools such as Claude Code, Cursor, and v0, selecting the fastest approach for answering product and design questions.
• Deliver components that product engineers can use directly, ensuring correct semantics, complete interaction states, accessibility, and production-quality implementation.
• Design, engineer, and maintain custom components and primitives rather than relying on generic third-party UI libraries.
• Continuously improve the shared component library by auditing existing primitives, identifying gaps, refining patterns, and contributing reusable components rather than creating one-off solutions.
• Maintain consistency across tokens, spacing, states, dark mode, motion, and interaction patterns, ensuring every new product surface strengthens the overall design system.
• Apply motion and animation thoughtfully, using it to clarify interactions and improve the experience without adding unnecessary complexity.
• Own outcomes rather than simply delivering design artifacts by framing hypotheses, defining success criteria, supporting implementation, and evaluating results.
• Maintain a high accessibility standard across all work, including keyboard navigation, focus management, semantics, contrast, and motion preferences.
• Refine the details that elevate product quality, including empty states, error messaging, loading behavior, transitions, and other interaction nuances.
• Collaborate openly with product and design leadership, sharing work early, incorporating feedback, and allowing technical and product constraints to inform design decisions.
• Document design thinking and decisions through written documentation, prototypes, and recorded walkthroughs to support effective asynchronous collaboration.
