• Ensure components work within Vue applications and as native Web Components
• Partner with product designers and engineers throughout the development process
• Work in application code to refine layouts, interactions, responsive behavior, typography, spacing, focus management, transitions, and feedback states
• Implement last-mile design details like loading, empty, error, success, disabled, hover, and keyboard-navigation states
• Review product surfaces for visual, behavioral, and accessibility inconsistencies and fix them
• Improve documentation, testing, release processes, and contribution practices for Pit Viper

Required qualifications

• A portfolio, or work sample showing before/after component or interaction work

Nice to have

• Experience contributing to or maintaining a component library used by 10+ other engineers/teams
• Familiarity with Storybook, Figma-to-code tooling, or similar design-system tooling
• Experience in healthcare, fintech, or another data-dense enterprise product domain
