UX Engineer - Design Systems

About VIMO:

Vimo started as the "Expedia" of health insurance and has evolved into a leader in transforming government IT infrastructure with its proven SaaS and AI technology. Our innovative approach to health insurance shopping and enrollment has expanded beyond exchanges, and we are now reinventing how states administer safety net programs such as Medicaid, SNAP (food stamps), child care, and unemployment insurance. With our cutting-edge technology, we are helping agencies serve more people, faster, and transforming healthcare service delivery as we know it.

About The Role:

We're seeking a UX Engineer - someone who sits at the intersection of design and engineering. In this role, you'll focus on design-to-code systems, creating the infrastructure, tooling, and component libraries that enable UI developers to build faster, more consistent, and more accessible experiences at scale.

• Ensure the correct usage of design system components across codebase.
• Work with frontend developers to ensure frontend code adheres to the design system and is responsive to different device sizes.
• Implement and maintain a design system on Storybook that needs to be configurable for all of GetInsured's products.
• Provide tooling and documentation that empower UI developers to use the design system (UI library) effectively.
• Ensure accessibility (WCAG 2.2 / Section 508) is built into every component by default.
• Establish and maintain design-to-code workflows (Figma → components, prototyping pipelines, automated documentation).
• Contribute to performance, maintainability, and consistency of front-end code across teams.
• Advocate for UX best practices in code reviews, design reviews, and cross-functional discussions.

Compensation and Benefits:

• Competitive compensation - All In range of ($110,000-$160,000). (Please note that salary and compensation may vary based on factors such as skills, experience, performance and location.)
• We offer a comprehensive benefits package, including but not limited to: Health, Dental, Life, Disability, and Vision insurance

• Retirement benefits (401k)
• Paid time off

• Education assistance or tuition reimbursement-

Our Values:

• We believe that working hard, when it is imbued with purpose, can and should be fun.
• You'll find we are a "can do" place where people work together and roll up their sleeves to get the job done.
• Everyone has a voice; everyone's ideas count, and everyone is respected.
• We have built a company, as well as a community of friends and colleagues, with respect for each other.

Information Security & Data Protection:

• This role may involve access to sensitive or regulated information. The candidate is expected to handle all data in accordance with company security, privacy, and data protection policies.
