About the position You will make documentation clearer, more consistent, and more useful so designers and engineers can reliably use the design system. Your work will shape usage guidelines, accessibility guidance, and reference material that reduces friction across product teams. You will partner closely with designers and engineers to capture intent and translate decisions into practical documentation.

Responsibilities

• Audit existing component documentation to identify gaps, inconsistencies, and standardization opportunities
• Write and refine usage guidelines, do's and don'ts, accessibility guidance, and component-specific content
• Partner with design system designers to capture intent behind component decisions and translate that into reference material
• Shape information architecture and voice so people can find and trust documentation
• Create visual assets (diagrams, mockups, component examples) to support written documentation

Requirements

• 5+ years of experience in product design, content design, or technical writing for design systems or developer-facing products
• Prior experience designing for and documenting a design system (internal or public)
• A strong portfolio of written work, including usage guidelines, design system documentation, or similar reference material
• Clear point of view on structure, voice, scannability, and appropriate level of detail for documentation
• Comfort matching an established design system voice and working inside an established system
• Excellent written communication and attention to consistency at scale
• Ability to work independently, ask sharp questions, and ramp quickly
• In-depth knowledge of best practices for Android (Material Design) and iOS (HIG)

Nice-to-haves

• Familiarity with comparable systems (Material, Polaris, Fluent, Carbon)
• Working knowledge of accessibility standards (WCAG) and how to write about them clearly
• Comfort reading component specs and engineering documentation
• Experience collaborating with both designers and engineers on shared documentation

Benefits

• health, vision and dental benefits for contract employees
• Paid sick leave eligibility is contingent on state of residence
• Optional 401k Plan (excludes employer match)
• Opportunity to get your foot in the door at a well-established corporation, with potential for extended or permanent full-time employment
