Job summary

Atmosphere TV in Austin, TX is seeking a Design Engineer who blends design and engineering to shape the TV interface, the business app, and the web admin. You own features from framing problems to high‑fidelity UI, ship Vue and TypeScript in the same repo as the rest of engineering, and contribute to the design system.

You work closely with the Product team, prototype in code, measure performance after launch, and use AI daily across research, prototyping, and shipping.

Qualifications

• 3–4 years designing and shipping software products.
• Portfolio showing shipped product work and current state.
• Strong visual and interaction craft: typography, hierarchy, layout, and color.
• Fluency in Figma, and enough web development skill to build and ship your own work.
• Code that has reached real users, whether you shipped it yourself or paired with engineers to get it there.
• Daily, hands‑on use of AI tools across design exploration, prototyping, and code.
• Comfort working in a real codebase: reading code you did not write, using git, opening pull requests, and taking code review.
• Comfort working from a design system and improving it rather than working around it.
• Clear communication and a willingness to take feedback and iterate.
• A bias toward simplicity in both design and code.

Responsibilities

• Own the design of individual features, from problem framing and user flows through high-fidelity UI.
• Ship production Vue and TypeScript alongside engineering, and own the quality of what lands.
• Build the components you design as real code in our design system.
• Design and build the internal tools our CS and ops teams rely on, including the AI-enabled workflows those teams increasingly run on.
• Talk directly with the people who use what you build, and turn what you learn into design decisions.
• Prototype in code to explore ideas and show them to stakeholders.
• Work within our design system and make it more detailed and consistent as you go.
• Measure how your work performs after it ships, and iterate on it.
• Use AI daily across research, design exploration, prototyping, and shipping.
