Job Description

Join Thumbtack, a platform that connects people with local service professionals. As a Senior Software Engineer on the Design Systems team, you will build an AI-assisted pipeline that moves product work from design to shipped code. You will work closely with product designers, developer experience, and frontend infrastructure to create a first-class design-to-code workflow. This is a greenfield project, and you will have the opportunity to shape the design-to-code system from the ground up.

  • Concevoir et mettre en œuvre des workflows assistés par l'IA qui déplacent le travail entre Figma, les prototypes et notre code de frontend de production.
  • Travailler en tant que contrepartie technique pour le design produit, en collaborant sur les modèles, les composants et les workflows.
  • Évoluer Thumbprint, notre système de design, afin qu'il s'intègre proprement avec les outils agentiques.
  • Hands-on experience with AI-assisted development tools like Cursor, Claude Code, or Codex, and considered opinions about their limits, where they help, and how to scale them beyond personal use
  • A track record of building tools and infrastructure that other engineers or non-engineers actually adopted, with judgment about onboarding, documentation, and the feedback loops that make adoption stick
  • Demonstrated experience as a frontend engineer building production product surfaces, with the systems-thinking instincts to reason about tooling, workflows, and platforms as well as features
  • Design system experience is welcome but not required; front-end engineering and AI tooling fluency are the load-bearing skills
  • 6+ years of industry experience in software engineering
  • Deep hands-on fluency with the modern web stack: TypeScript, React, and the build, test, and deploy tools that surround them
  • Strong cross-functional collaboration instincts, comfortable working closely with designers, PMs, and partner engineering teams as your primary users
