User Experience Engineer

Design Technologist

UX Engineering • Design Systems • UI Craft

(12-month contract – Hybrid 3 days/week onsite in Toronto)

We’re looking for a Design Technologist to help scale and evolve the design system that powers one of Canada’s largest digital ecosystems. You’ll bridge design and development—crafting thoughtful UI components and helping teams create cohesive, accessible experiences across platforms.

This is a senior-level, hands-on role for someone who obsesses over the details—typography, spacing, and micro-interactions—and thrives on cross-functional collaboration. You'll work with a high-performing design team, interface closely with engineers, and play a key role in system adoption across product teams.

What you’ll do:

• Design and develop high-fidelity, reusable UI components (web-first, with some mobile)
• Evolve and maintain design system libraries (Figma and coded)
• Collaborate with developers to QA and ship polished, accessible UI
• Coach teams on best practices for using the system—through workshops, docs, and 1:1s
• Advocate for design system thinking and craft excellence across the org

You should have:

• 7+ years of experience in design, front-end development, or a hybrid UX engineering role
• Deep Figma expertise (auto layout, tokens, libraries, etc.)
• Hands-on coding skills in HTML, CSS/SCSS, and JavaScript
• Experience with Angular and/or React (you don’t have to be a full-stack dev, but you should speak the language)
• A strong eye for detail and a commitment to consistency and accessibility

Bonus points for:

• Familiarity with software APIs or object-oriented programming
• Experience working in large, complex organizations or product ecosystems
• A background in design thinking or user research
• Workshop facilitation skills
