• Create documentation and education materials for the design system
• Own your work from idea to release and beyond, including assisting with testing and resolution of bugs
• Stay updated with the latest design trends, industry standards, and best practices to ensure our products remain cutting-edge and user-focused.

What We're Looking For:
