Design Engineer

This is a Full Remote job, available from South America, North America, and Central America.

Hi, I’m Abhik, Ashby's Co-Founder and VP of Engineering. This role is close to my heart because it’s where I’ve always done my best work, but also where I was seen as a rebel and an outsider. I want folks like me to feel at home at Ashby, and so I made Design Engineering a formal role and department that works closely with me.

This role truly expects you to design and code. Design Engineer at Ashby isn’t just a Frontend Engineer with new branding, nor is it a Designer who codes prototypes. Combining excellence in both is where magic happens.

You’ll work on our most challenging design problems, help others improve their designs by expanding and enhancing our in-house design system, and consult on bespoke design work needed by Product Engineers. To ground it with examples, Design Engineers at Ashby have:

• Redesigned our mobile web app by talking with customers who use it often, wireframing new flows, implementing its design system, and using that system to turn the wireframes into a polished UI.
• Built a design system that has been used by multiple teams across the company.

• Design and code with excellence in both areas.
• Work on challenging design problems.
• Help others improve their designs.
• Consult on bespoke design work.
