Descrição da oferta de emprego

Job ID: 10528558 | Amazon.com Services LLC

At Amazon Health Services, we're building a unified design system that powers consistent, high-quality experiences across our clinical and consumer products — including a growing suite of AI-powered interfaces. We're looking for a Design Systems Designer who brings strong visual design craft, systems thinking, and curiosity about AI-forward design to help scale our component library, define visual patterns, and build the infrastructure that enables dozens of product designers to move faster with higher fidelity.

Key job responsibilities

• Design and maintain scalable UI components, patterns, and guidelines within the AHS design system
• Define and evolve visual tokens (color, typography, spacing, elevation, motion) that ensure consistency across products
• Audit product surfaces for system adherence and identify opportunities for new or improved patterns
• Create detailed component specs including states, responsive behavior, accessibility requirements, and usage guidance
• Define and document design patterns for AI-driven experiences (generative UI, conversational interfaces, AI-assisted workflows) within the system
• Collaborate with front-end engineers to ensure coded components match design intent
• Identify and implement AI-powered workflows that accelerate design systems operations — variant generation, automated specs, documentation, and design-to-code handoff
• Contribute to design system documentation, making it easy for other designers to adopt and contribute
• Participate in design critiques and system reviews, providing feedback grounded in systematic thinking

A day in the life

As a Design Systems Designer at AHS, you might start your morning using AI tooling to generate component variant explorations that would have taken hours manually — then refining the best options with your craft eye. After standup with the systems team, you'll spend focused time in Figma evolving a component's visual states, leveraging AI-assisted prototyping to test responsive behavior across breakpoints. In the afternoon you'll partner with an engineer to review a coded implementation against your spec — possibly using a design-to-code pipeline to bridge the gap — then collaborate with design and tech teams to define patterns for a new UI surface. You'll contribute to automated documentation workflows and end the day exploring visual directions for an upcoming token update — balancing craft with systematic rigor and a bias toward experimentation.

About the team

You’ll join the AHS Design Systems team within the Amazon Health Services organization — a small, focused group building the foundational layer that enables all of our product designers to do their best work. We're actively integrating AI into our own workflows — from component generation to documentation to code handoff — and we want people who are excited to push that forward. You’ll work alongside teammates in Seattle, San Francisco, and Boston, partnering closely with product designers, front-end engineers, and accessibility specialists. We value craft, experimentation, and supporting each other's growth.

Basic Qualifications

• - 3+ years of design experience
• - Have an available online portfolio
• - Experience working in a collaborative team environment to deliver high-quality design solutions
• - Portfolio demonstrating strong visual design skills and systematic design thinking — showing how individual components connect to a larger system
• - Experience building and maintaining design systems, pattern libraries, or component libraries
• - Understanding of how design decisions translate to code
• - Strong eye for typography, color, spacing, and visual hierarchy
• - Active use of or strong curiosity about AI tools to accelerate design systems work — component generation, variant exploration, automated documentation, design-to-code pipelines

Preferred Qualifications

• - Knowledge of mobile and web design patterns and accessibility standards
• - Experience with motion design
• - Experience building or contributing to a production design system used by multiple product teams
• - Experience designing patterns for AI/ML interfaces — generative UI, conversational experiences, or AI-assisted workflows
• - Familiarity with AI tooling for design workflows (generative AI for exploration, prototyping automation, design-to-code pipelines)
