Join us in creating a better world of work As our Lead Design Technologist you will sit at the bleeding edge of how we design and build product — blurring the line between design and engineering and changing the way Culture Amp ships experiences. This is a horizontal, high-influence role that touches our design system, our AI-assisted workflows, and the future of how designers and engineers collaborate at Culture Amp. You'll be embedded in our Agentic Engineering team and deeply connected to the design practice. You'll lead the adoption of our next-generation component system, build tooling that empowers designers to take frontend work further, and incubate new patterns at the intersection of AI, accessibility, and adaptive interfaces. This isn't a role for someone who just wants to execute — we're looking for a pioneer who is genuinely obsessed with where the design-to-code workflow is heading, and wants to shape it here. You'll need to be a self-starter who is comfortable navigating ambiguity, influencing across teams, and bringing both design rigour and engineering pragmatism to every conversation. What You'll Be Doing Lead the migration to our next-generation component system (built on Tailwind and React), establishing a golden path for greenfield projects and enabling teams to incrementally refactor existing surfaces Build tooling and workflows that close the gap between Figma and production — enabling designers to take frontend changes further without always needing an engineer Prototype emerging interaction patterns and adaptive interface concepts (e.g. accessibility-driven UI personalisation, white-label theming), validating ideas before they hit the roadmap Help encode design taste into our AI-assisted build workflows — establishing the standards, tokens, and semantic foundations that prevent AI tooling from producing generic, low-quality UI Act as the connective tissue between design practice, unified systems, and engineering — aligning teams on tooling, standards, and the direction of frontend transformation Champion accessibility throughout the design and build process, raising the bar for inclusive, high-quality experiences at scale Share learnings across teams through documentation, demos, and hands-on support — accelerating the capability of designers and engineers alike What You'll Have 5+ years of experience at the intersection of design and engineering — you've shipped production frontend code and built things designers actually use Deep proficiency in Figma, including component architecture, variables, and plugin development Strong working knowledge of React and modern JavaScript — you write code that others can build on and maintain Hands-on experience with design systems at scale: tokens, semantic foundations, component governance, and the tooling that makes systems stick
