Senior Design Technologist Jobs (NOW HIRING)

We are looking for a Principal Design Technologist to drive the craft and scalability of our platform. In this role, you will inspire teams by creating ideal-state prototypes and provocations that utilize cutting-edge technical capabilities. By focusing on motion design, advanced prototyping, and the development of new tools, you will bridge the gap between design and engineering to deliver intuitive, expressive, and uniquely Intuit experiences.

Intuit has been design driven since its inception. Design for Delight (D4D) is foundational to how we identify opportunities and iterate toward breakthrough solutions. As a modern designer, you are both a craft leader and a hands-on designer who is deeply invested in fit, finish, interaction quality, and emotional resonance. You will partner closely with Product, Engineering, and Operations to translate forward-looking design experiences, including agentic AI experiences, into scalable and customer-facing experiences that feel natural, helpful, and human.

This role is more than delivery. It’s about establishing the benchmark for platform design excellence at Intuit. Building systems, and experiences that consistently achieve it.

Responsibilities

• Contribute to the development of tools that allows designers to create prototypes using real production components and customer data.
• Lead the development of principles, standards, scalable practices, frameworks, and libraries in prototypes and motion in service to design.
• Inspire, advise, provoke, and lead the organization through provocations and proofs of concept that show what's possible in the medium of Ul code.
• Creatively innovate within the Ul in both existing and target state tech stacks.
• Enable pixel-perfect execution for design and engineering across platforms. Unblock and accelerate team members to deliver with unparalleled quality and speed.
• Streamline design processes by leading style guide and token driven design/development.
• Architect scalable code-based design systems that have design intention built in.
• Partner with senior leaders and galvanize the org to act with game-changing prototyping, product features and concepts.
• Champion outside-in, customer-centered thinking from early exploration through refinement of every touchpoint, balancing craft, scalability, and business outcomes.
• Influence cross-functional leaders and partners in a matrixed environment, driving bold experiences that elevate quality and platform coherence.
• Thoughtfully integrate agentic AI into product experiences, defining how intelligent systems show up in ways that feel natural, helpful, and human.
• Elevate the craft and cohesion of our platform experiences so they feel intuitive, expressive, and distinctly Intuit.

Qualifications

• 8+ years of experience in design technology, UX engineering, motion design, web development, or related field.
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Human-Computer Interaction, Design, or a related technical field or equivalent practical experience.
• Proven track record in pushing the boundaries of user interface design through experimentation, developing new tools and processes, and partnering with design, engineering, data science, and research teams.
• Organized, self-directed, efficient and able to manage multiple and complex projects in a timely manner.
