The RoleWe're looking for a Design Engineer to help define what modern design-to-code looks like at OnePay. This is a first-class engineering role with design fluency. You'll generate production-ready components directly, use AI coding tools aggressively, and help push the team past traditional spec-based handoff. You're not executing the current model - you're shaping what comes next.
What we're looking for- You ship in code. Figma is part of how you communicate, but you're most fluent in the codebase. You generate production-ready work, not just specs.
- You're AI-native at production velocity. Cursor, Claude Code, v0, similar tools - they're already how you move. You ship more in a day than most teams do in a week.
- You're rethinking handoff. The traditional model is breaking down, and you're excited to define what replaces it.
- You translate fluently. You speak both languages. Designers trust you, engineers trust you, and you make the gap between them disappear.
- You sweat the implementation. A two-pixel drift in production matters to you. So does a token that doesn't quite map. You catch what others miss.
- You operate in motion. Process is fluid here, and you help shape it as you ship.
Tools We UseWe use Node and TypeScript on the server, leveraging the NestJS framework within a microservice-oriented architecture running on Kubernetes and AWS. On the client side, we build and ship product features for iOS, Android, and web platforms using React Native. We also embrace AI-assisted development, so engineers have their choice of Claude Code or Cursor to fit their workflow.
While you don't need experience with our exact stack, familiarity with modern software engineering practices will help you ramp up quickly.You Bring- Fluency in both Figma and code (React Native or React).
- Active use of AI coding tools (Cursor, Claude Code, v0, or similar) at production velocity.
- Fluency in design tokens, component architecture, and how design systems map to code.
- Experience shipping on cross-functional teams where design and engineering overlap.
- Strong communication across both disciplines.
- A track record of operating in fluid environments and helping define how teams work.
What We Offer- Competitive base salary, stock options, and health benefits from Day 1
- 401(k) plan with company match
- Remote-friendly (US), flexible time off (FTO), and opportunities for growth
- A high-growth, mission-driven, inclusive culture where your work has real impact
