About Us

QuillBot is an AI-powered writing platform that supports 35+ million people around the world. Our team is on a mission to help students, working professionals, and language learners write efficiently, effectively, and confidently. QuillBot was founded on the belief that big ideas are more important than the technical aspects of language. We fuse innovation into the writing process so that everyone who writes can achieve their full potential. Our platform provides an array of productivity-enhancing tools, helping writers of all levels craft standout essays, blog posts, emails, social media content, and more.

Opportunity

As a senior design system designer, you will be shaping and evolving our design system across multiple platforms and brands. You will be supporting and improving the workflow of a global team of designers, content writers, researchers, and developers working on projects ranging from web to mobile to extensions.

If you are a generalist designer with great craft, system thinking, and the openness to learn and (if required) unlearn, then you will fit right in.

Management

Monitor, identify, and design solutions to system-related issues. Work with the team to manage and address the backlogs and roadmap of library features. Measure the impact of design system updates and iterate based on data and feedback.

Collaboration

Promote system usage and foster discussions with cross-functional teams to identify library challenges and needs. Work closely with developers to ensure seamless implementation of the design system. Partner with brand designers to ensure the design system is in alignment with our brand identities.

Communication & mentorship

Clearly communicate system-level design decisions along with the rationale. Contribute to training/workshop sessions on system use and best practices. Actively participate in design working sessions to facilitate system usage. Coach junior designers and foster a culture of continuous learning and development.

Process

Follow, contribute, and improve the existing design system processes. Assist in research activities to assess the health of the system and propose ways to improve system health as well as design system team efficiency. Be aware of latest industry trends and best practices.

Ideal Candidate

• At least 3 years of experience focused on design systems or 5+ years of design experience across various platforms (web, iOS, Android)

• Experience building and maintaining a design system at scale. You should have a portfolio/case study showcasing the same.
• An understanding of accessibility principles and experience building products that are inclusive of users with varying abilities.
