Design Engineer
Antimetal, New York, NY, United States
About Antimetal Antimetal is building the future of infrastructure management. We're starting by creating a platform that investigates, resolves, and prevents issues—giving engineers their time back to focus on what they do best: building great products.
What You’ll Do: Own the design system across Figma and code (React, Tailwind), keeping it robust and scalable.
Ship pixel‑perfect interfaces with CSS.
Take ideas from rough sketches to production-ready by partnering with design and engineering.
Raise the bar on front‑end architecture and best practices.
Define new interaction patterns for AI‑driven tools.
What you bring: Experience working as a Design Engineer, frontend engineer with strong design skills, or designer with strong engineering skills
Highly proficient in React, Next.js, TypeScript, and Tailwind, with a strong grasp of modern frontend architecture, state management patterns, and performance optimization.
Strong visual and interaction instincts—you care deeply about detail, motion, and making interfaces feel precise, responsive, and intentional.
A fast, flexible prototyper who is equally comfortable exploring ideas in Figma, code, or AI tools, depending on what gets you to signal fastest.
Hands-on with CSS animation, transitions, and layout techniques—skilled at crafting interfaces that move and respond with clarity and intent.
A strong portfolio showcasing high-quality front-end development work.
Comfortable in a fast-moving startup environment. You are quick to iterate, test ideas, and push toward outcomes.
