Product Designer - Design Systems (Remote)
Location: Bolingbrook, Illinois
Job Type: Contract
Compensation Range: $65 - 72 per hour
Our client, a major retailer, is looking for a Product Designer to join their design system team, focused on enabling world-class digital experiences through scalable, flexible, and guest-centered systems. This designer will play a critical role in evolving the design system to support their mobile apps redesign. This role demands not only expert-level Figma mastery-building, maintaining, and innovating with precision-but also a deep understanding of how design systems connect across app and web platforms.
The ideal candidate has experience designing for mobile apps (iOS & Android), thrives in a system-oriented mindset, and brings a strong partnership approach to engineering. Development literacy is a plus, as this role requires close collaboration with engineers to ensure seamless translation from design to code.
Reporting to the Product Design Manager, the Product Designer will combine hands-on system building with strategic thinking, enabling designers across the enterprise to work faster, smarter, and more consistently.
Responsibilities:
• Figma Mastery: Build and maintain component libraries, tokens, variables, and workflows. Push Figma to its limits to create reliable, scalable assets that empower the entire design org.
• System Governance: Define contribution, maintenance, and versioning models that keep the system stable, trusted, and evolving.
• Cross-Platform Design: Ensure system patterns and components translate seamlessly across iOS, Android, and web, with a focus on the mobile app work.
• Engineering Collaboration: Partner closely with developers to ensure system fidelity from Figma to code, align tokens and variables, and troubleshoot implementation challenges.
• Innovation & Evolution: Anticipate and integrate emerging Figma capabilities, plugins, and industry best practices to advance the system.
• Research Partnership: Collaborate with UX research to validate new components, patterns, and accessibility standards.
• Enablement & Training: Lead workshops, onboarding sessions, and office hours to scale adoption and contribution across the design and engineering community.
• Consistency & Brand Alignment: Ensure the evolving brand identity is reflected across system assets and digital products.
Additional Responsibilities:
• Facilitate workshops, brainstorms and critiques to inform UX direction and gain cross-functional alignment.
• Support research efforts including usability testing, A/B testing, analytics reviews, and competitive audits.
• Assess and improve the usability of new and existing features across digital channels.
• Advocate for accessibility, consistency, and usability standards in every design.
• Proactively identify roadblocks and drive solutions independently or with limited oversight.
• Help onboard new team members, model best practices and contribute to team rituals.
• Stay informed on eCommerce trends, mobile UX best practices and beauty industry behaviors.
Qualifications:
• 5-7 years in UX/UI or product design roles, including at least 2 years dedicated specifically to design field.
• Strong portfolio showcasing system-level thinking and mobile app design (iOS & Android).
• BS/BA in Design, HCI, or related field preferred.
• Expert-level Figma skills (building complex components, libraries, variables, and advanced workflows).
• Familiarity with front-end concepts (HTML, CSS, JavaScript frameworks, design tokens, and component-driven development).
• Proven ability to collaborate effectively with cross-functional partners including developers, product managers and marketing teams.
• Strong communication skills to articulate design intent and system rationale.
• Experience with research-informed design and accessibility standards.
• Passion for design systems and driving impact at scale.
