Web Design Jobs 2026 (Now Hiring) – Smart Auto Apply

Confido is the AI infrastructure powering modern CPG — the platform that 200+ brands like OLIPOP, Simple Mills, Dr. Squatch, and Tropicana use to run everything from deductions to production planning. Finance, accounting, sales, and operations, unified in one system for the first time.

We're growing 5x year over year and recently raised a $15M Series A led by Footwork and Y Combinator. We're a small, in-person team in New York City, which means the people who join now shape the product, the culture, and the company itself.

If you want your work on shelves everywhere — and outsized ownership while you build — we'd love to meet you.

We're building the operating system for CPG brands—covering trade promotion, deductions, demand planning, and supply planning in one platform. As a Design Engineer, you'll build an AI-ready design system from scratch: the tokens, components, styles, and descriptions that give both designers and developers a faster, more reliable foundation to build on.

You'll work directly with product and engineering to close the gap between design intent and shipped experience.

Location: New York, New York (Chelsea) - Relocation Assistance Included

What you'll do

• Build Confido's design system from the ground up—tokens, components, styles, and the documentation that makes them usable by designers and developers alike

• Implement production-grade React/TS components with pixel-perfect execution and interactions that delight

• Design in context: work across real product surfaces to understand how components relate, communicate, and hold up before abstracting them

• Bridge design and engineering, translating intent into code and pushing what's possible in both directions

• Rapidly prototype new concepts and patterns to validate ideas before full implementation

• Socialize the design system across the team so it actually gets used and helps everyone ship faster

What you bring

• 4+ years of design engineering or frontend experience, ideally on a product or design system team

• Equally comfortable in Figma and your code editor—you move fluidly between both

• Strong frontend engineering skills: TypeScript, React, CSS, animations, and a component-driven mindset

• A strong eye for design, with deep care for layout, motion, affordances, and visual polish

• Experience building or meaningfully contributing to a design system: tokens, components, documentation, governance

• You've shipped polished products and know what it takes to get from 90% to 100%

• You can move fast—prototyping ideas in hours, not days

• A systems mindset: you think in primitives and abstractions, not one-off solutions

• Excited about AI and how it changes the way designers and developers work

You'll stand out if you

• Have shipped a design system (or major version of one) and know what makes them fail

• Prototype in code to think, not just to present

• Have designed for B2B financial, enterprise, or operational domains before

• Use AI tools actively in your workflow, not as a gimmick, but as a multiplier

• Treat ambiguity as an invitation

Tools/Tech Stack

We primarily use TypeScript + React with Vite as our build tool. Our current UI layer is built on MUI, leveraging both the sx prop and styled components for styling.

For data and state management, we use TanStack Query and Axios for data fetching, along with a mix of Zustand and React Context for shared UI state. Routing is handled via React Router.

Note: While MUI is our current foundation, we’re actively evolving our design system and are open to exploring alternatives (e.g., Tailwind) as we scale.
