Design Engineer (Remote from Australia)

This position is posted by Jobgether on behalf of a partner company. We are currently looking for a Design Engineer in Australia.

This role focuses on turning high-fidelity product designs into functional, interactive front-end prototypes in a fast-paced, fully remote environment. You will partner closely with product designers to iterate rapidly, translating Figma mockups into working prototypes that accelerate validation, improve stakeholder communication, and streamline handoff to engineering. Leveraging AI-assisted coding tools, your work ensures that designs are implemented with precision, visual polish, and functional quality. You will help set the standard for prototype-driven design, supporting experimentation, innovation, and rapid product development while contributing to reusable front-end components. This role requires strong technical skills, attention to detail, and a design-oriented mindset to deliver high-impact results quickly and effectively.

Accountabilities

• Work 1 : 1 with product designers to transform Figma concepts into interactive, production-quality prototypes.
• Build prototypes using technologies consistent with the production front-end (React, Next.js, TypeScript, Tailwind), leveraging AI coding tools like Cursor and Claude Code.
• Translate multi-screen flows into functional implementations, iterating quickly through critique loops to ensure alignment with design intent.
• Deploy prototypes to preview environments for asynchronous review, feedback, and stakeholder alignment.
• Collaborate with the Design Systems and front-end engineering teams to ensure consistency and maintain reusable components.
• Provide input on technical feasibility, complexity, and potential improvements while managing multiple workstreams.
• Maintain high attention to visual fidelity, interaction polish, and UX quality in all prototypes.
