Founding Design Engineer
We are looking for a design engineer who closes the gap between Figma and production. You will own the look, feel, and interaction quality of Twintual across mobile and web. You will ship the interfaces, not throw them over a wall.
Apply nowThe role
What you will actually do
- Design and build features end to end: from Figma to shipped code in FlutterFlow and Next.js.
- Own and evolve the Twintual design system. Components, tokens, motion, accessibility.
- Build and iterate on twintual.com. Landing pages, docs site, marketing experiments.
- Prototype quickly. When a product decision is stuck, your job is to build the thing that unsticks it.
- Work directly with the CTO and founders on product direction. Your taste will shape what Twintual feels like.
- Review every pixel that ships. You are the last line of defense before users see it.
Day 90 goal
Our design system is documented and consistent across FlutterFlow and Next.js, our landing page converts better than it does today, and every new feature ships with an interaction that feels considered, not assembled.
Stack & tools
What we offer
- Base salary: competitive, based on experience and location.
- Equity: meaningful stake with standard vesting.
- Remote-first. Equipment budget. Paid time off that you actually take.
- Direct line to founders. Your work shapes what Twintual looks and feels like.
- Full ownership of the design system and all customer-facing surfaces.
Requirements
What we expect
- 3+ years designing and building product interfaces. Portfolio with real shipped work, not just mockups.
- Fluent in Figma. You can move between high-level flows and pixel-level detail without friction.
- Strong frontend skills: React, TypeScript, Tailwind. You build what you design.
- You understand interaction design, motion, and accessibility at a real level, not a surface level.
- You have opinions about typography, spacing, and color, and you can defend them with reasoning.
- You care about craft. A misaligned button bothers you the way a typo bothers a writer.
Nice to have
- FlutterFlow experience or willingness to learn it. Our mobile app lives there.
- Motion and micro-interaction work, with tools like Framer Motion, Rive, or Lottie.
- Marketing site experience. Landing pages that convert, not just look good.
- Design system leadership at a previous startup.
- You have built AI-first interfaces and have thoughts on what works and what does not.
How we work
The environment
Remote, global
We hire for talent density, not geography. Work from wherever you do your best thinking.
High autonomy
You own outcomes, not tickets. We trust you to make decisions and defend them.
Fast iteration
We ship weekly, not quarterly. Your work reaches real users quickly.
Direct communication
We say what we mean and correct course early. No politics, no layers.
Taste matters here
This is a team where a misaligned button is a real problem. Your craft is not just welcomed, it is required.
More roles coming soon. Positions in product, growth, and engineering are on the way.
Show us something you are proud of.
Send a link to code you have shipped, a design system you built, or a product interaction you obsessed over. Cover letters are optional. Evidence is not.
