Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Quartermaster is building the world's most comprehensive maritime intelligence platform. They are seeking a Senior Design Engineer to translate high-fidelity design intent into production-quality interfaces for complex maritime environments, while collaborating with cross-functional teams to ensure seamless user experiences.

Responsibilities

• Build and ship production-ready UI components from design specs, prioritizing performance, reusability, and scalability across our web portal
• Develop and maintain our design system as living code—keeping design tokens, component libraries (React/TypeScript), and documentation in sync across our maritime intelligence applications
• Prototype novel interactions and data visualizations—including live sensor feeds, event timelines, and tracking dashboards—to pressure-test new product proposals in real, interactive environments
• Bridge design and engineering by implementing high-fidelity features like map interfaces and radar overlays that preserve design intent in high-density data environments
• Build tooling and automation that accelerate the design-to-development workflow between product and core engineering
• Iterate on implementations based on direct operator feedback, field testing, and rigorous performance insights from defense and government customers
• Conduct and synthesize user research to inform technical design decisions, turning complex maritime workflows into highly performant and clear user journeys
• Establish and enforce accessibility standards (WCAG), performance optimization guidelines, and responsive design practices across the front-end repository

Skills

• 5+ years of experience in product design, UI/UX engineering, or front-end design engineering, paired with a designer's eye and a portfolio demonstrating mastery of data-rich web application interfaces
• Strong front-end engineering competencies: Deep fluency in HTML, CSS/Tailwind, and modern JavaScript/TypeScript, with hands-on experience building components in React
• Deep proficiency in Figma, including advanced component libraries, auto-layout, token management, and the tooling that keeps code components consistent with their design source of truth
• A strong visual design foundation—typography, color, layout, and hierarchy—especially when designing for dense, operationally critical environments where information clarity and software performance are non-negotiable
• Fluency in UX principles: interaction design, information architecture, and the technical ability to translate complex data workflows into simple, intuitive interfaces
• Experience designing and building geospatial or map-based interfaces; comfort handling layered, overlapping data visualizations and Canvas/WebGL rendering paradigms
• Comfort working in iterative processes, incorporating user research, field feedback, and performance data to refine and evolve your work
