We’re working with a leading Australian organisation on a couple of upcoming contract opportunities within their design system team, following recent contractor transitions into permanent roles.
They’re looking to bring in two designers:
- One with a mobile app focus
- One with a web focus
Both roles sit at the heart of their design systems capability, supporting the evolution and scaling of an already well-established system.
The Opportunity
This isn’t a greenfield build — the foundations are already in place, with strong, functioning libraries across the business.
The focus is on:
- Evolving and scaling the design system
- Embedding it more deeply across product teams
- Driving consistency and quality across the ecosystem
There’s also a strong simplification agenda, with opportunities to:
- Improve and streamline existing experiences
- Work on decoupling and refining components
- Solve meaningful, system-level design challenges
What You’ll Be Doing
- Collaborating closely with engineering teams to bring components to life
- Translating design components into coded components
- Building and refining reusable patterns and systems
- Supporting adoption of the design system across multiple product teams
- Acting as a bridge between design and development
What They’re Looking For
- Strong experience working within design systems environments
- Ability to think beyond Figma — understanding how systems translate into code and implementation
- Experience working closely with engineers and cross-functional teams
For the App-focused role:
- Experience with design tokens and variables, and how they flow into development
Environment & Culture
This is a highly collaborative and supportive environment, where:
- Designers work closely with engineers and product teams
- There’s a strong emphasis on relationships and influence, not silos
- The goal is to enable and uplift the broader design function
