• Design a component system using React and Tailwind that supports rapid iteration and a cohesive design language.

• Collaborate with distributed-systems engineers, product designers, and founders to turn complex infrastructure into a delightful product.
• Level-up the team by leading design reviews, mentoring junior engineers, and establishing best practices for testing, accessibility, and observability.
