Software Product Design Engineer

Y Combinator

San Francisco, CA • On-site

$152K - $182K/yr

Full-time

Re-posted 15 days ago

Job description

Job Summary:
Y Combinator builds software for internal tools and public products in the startup ecosystem, and they are seeking a Software Product Design Engineer. The role involves designing user experiences, translating design mocks into production code, and improving existing interfaces while collaborating closely with engineers and stakeholders.
Responsibilities:
• Design compelling, clear UI/UX and produce high-quality mocks that demonstrate strong product taste.
• Turn design mocks (yours or others’) into pixel-perfect, production-ready frontends using modern web tech.
• Iterate on existing interfaces by improving layout, interaction quality, motion, and design consistency.
• Work closely with engineers, partners, and stakeholders — you’ll own the design and implementation of features end-to-end.
• Rapidly prototype and 'vibe code' to explore ideas, gather feedback, and iterate quickly.
• Contribute to design systems, component libraries, and patterns that raise the bar for frontend quality across YC.
• Stay close to users: talk to them, watch how they use the product, and improve the experience based on real signals.
Qualifications:
Required:
• Strong UX and visual design skills with proven taste and craftsmanship.
• Frontend engineering experience — comfort building real UI in React, TypeScript, and modern CSS.
• Ability to move fluidly between design tools (Figma, etc.) and frontend code.
• A “get things done” mindset: you ship quickly, iterate based on feedback, and take ownership.
• Someone who cares deeply about polish — from typography and spacing to micro-interactions and transitions.
• Comfort with ambiguity: you’ll often define your own scope and drive things forward with little direction.
Preferred:
• Experience building or maintaining design systems.
• Contributions to open source UI libraries or design resources.
• Background in internal tools, admin dashboards, or developer-facing products.
Company:
Y Combinator provides a startup accelerator program and investment capital for early-stage companies across various industries. Founded in 2005, the company is headquartered in Mountain View, USA, with a team of 51-200 employees. The company is currently Growth Stage.
