Remote Rf Design Engineer Jobs in New York, NY (NOW HIRING)

Staff Product Designer, Design Systems (Remote)
Overview:
Lead the evolution of Weedmaps' design system through an incredible period of opportunity. We're looking for a transformative and visionary designer, with exceptional taste and craft, to collaborate in leading efforts to modernize the Weedmaps customer experience.
This role unifies design and code at the intersection of Design, Engineering, and AI tooling, to evolve, operationalize, and scale the system while modernizing it and transforming it. Our goal is that this work will continually accelerate design and development, maintain high standards for craft and usability, align with engineering architecture, and enable consistent app-wide changes. Success will require a highly collaborative individual, eager to partner with Creative (new brand shifts, cohesion, continual evolution), Product Design (new feature development, iteration) and Engineering (CI/CD, tokens, tooling), to ensure system adoption and power the product experience.
The impact you'll make:

• Define and evolve the multi-platform system (web + mobile) with clear architecture, governance, and scalability principles.
• Own the roadmap and prioritization based on product needs, adoption gaps, and system performance.
• Partner with Design and Creative leadership to ensure high craft, modern interaction patterns, and resilience to ongoing brand evolution.
• Design and implement core system components, defining intuitive, flexible, and scalable APIs, variants, and composition patterns.
• Ensure high standards for visual precision, fidelity, accessibility (React Aria), and interaction quality, motion, and state management.
• Continuously refine components based on product usage and edge cases.
• Implement automated quality systems, including visual regression testing, and continuously audit the system for usability and craft excellence. Act as a cross-functional steward of system quality.
• Lead migration of legacy UI and ensure critical product surfaces (e.g., CTAs, checkout flows) are powered by the system, actively increasing adoption across the ecosystem.
• Establish a best-in-class tool-to-code pipeline (Figma, Claude, Builder, etc.) to map design artifacts to production components and prevent drift.
• Partner with Engineering on architectural decisions (CI/CD, token systems, distribution infrastructure) and support enforcement mechanisms (linting, token constraints) to maintain system integrity.
• Introduce and standardize AI-assisted workflows, in partnership with Engineering , to structuring components for AI-friendly generation and integrating tools (Builder.io, Claude, etc.) to improve consistency.
• Mentor designers and engineers and create documentation that allows teams to move quickly within a well-governed system.
• Identify strategic innovation opportunities, prototype new interaction models/motion systems, and codify successful innovations into the design system.

What you've accomplished:

• 7+ years in front-end, design, or creative engineering, with strong mobile focus (iOS/Android).
• Proven track record building and scaling design systems and component libraries across multiple teams/products.
• Knowledge of React (Web) and React Native, and modern front-end architecture.
• Deep understanding of design craft (typography, motion, interaction, visual systems).
• Experience driving adoption of shared systems and implementing design-to-code pipelines (tokens, Figma integration).
• Familiarity with AI-assisted development tools and workflows.
• Strong systems thinking and ability to align Design, Engineering, and Creative stakeholders.

Bonus points:

• Experience working on marketplace, e-commerce, or consumer platforms.
• Familiarity with Storybook, visual regression tools, and token management systems.
• Experience translating brand systems into scalable product UI.
• Exposure to AI-native development environments and workflows.
• Passion for building systems that balance craft, scalability, and speed.

What Success Looks Like:

• Achieve measurable increase in system adoption and reduction in custom UI, ensuring core experiences (e.g., CTAs, checkout) are powered by shared components.
• Enable teams to ship UI faster and with higher consistency.
• Maintain tight alignment between Design and code, minimizing drift.
• Seamlessly translate brand updates into product through the system.
• Establish efficient AI-assisted workflows for both Design and Engineering.
• The product delivers a cohesive, modern, and high-quality user experience.

Why You'll Love It Here:

• Shape product development at scale, operating at the center of Design, Engineering, and Creative.
• Work with modern infrastructure to define how AI, design systems, and product development converge.
• Build systems that power millions of user experiences.
• Thrive in a culture that values craft, collaboration, and innovation.
