About The Position

We are looking for an exceptional designer to join our team in San Francisco. You will guide the vision, strategy, and execution of Ivo’s design system while managing a small team of designers. You will work across Product and Engineering to build a system that elevates product teams, one that enables rapid iteration without sacrificing coherence, taste, or craft.

Requirements

• 6+ years of experience in product design, design systems, or front-end/UI engineering
• 2+ years of people management experience (designers, engineers, or cross-functional teams)
• Experience building design systems for SaaS platforms
• Deep expertise in Figma, component libraries, tokens, variants, and systematic file organization
• Constantly learning and adapting to the rapid changes AI brings to UI/UX
• A proclivity to adopting and experimenting intelligently with AI tools
• Strong communication and documentation skills, with the ability to clearly articulate system rationale and implementation guidance
• Experience operating in a fast-paced environment with multiple priorities and high expectations for craft
• A portfolio that demonstrates how you’ve shaped scalable design patterns, systematized complex UI challenges, and delivered cohesive experiences

Nice To Haves

• Have a "do what it takes" attitude. You're willing to dive into problems and solve them yourself — you won't have anyone to delegate to
• Would describe yourself as beingrelentlessly resourceful
• You have a strong internal sense of urgency. You have a bias towards doing things today, rather than tomorrow
• Experience working in a startup environment is preferred but not required
• You are excited about the adventure of building a company!

Responsibilities

• Create, maintain, and scale component libraries, design tokens, interaction patterns, and accessibility standards
• Define and own the vision, strategy, and roadmap for Ivo’s design system.
• Partner closely with Engineering to ensure system adoption, alignment, and implementation quality of the design system
• Develop workflows that improve designer and developer collaboration, such as Figma libraries, documentation, and quality checks
• Shape internal best practices for design documentation, guidelines, and cross-team collaboration
• Constantly raise the bar for design craft and execution
