Tending those patterns, and giving everyone at Mercury the means to weave with them, is the work of our Design System team, and the north star of this role.
As a Senior Frontend Engineer on the Design Systems team, you will build and care for those patterns: the components and foundations that everything else at Mercury is built on. Done well, a single decision here makes every product team faster.
The ground under that work is shifting, though. Software is being built in new ways, and AI is increasingly part of how design systems are made and used. We are looking for someone who is fluent at that intersection: deepl... Click Apply to read the full job description.
