Senior Design Engineer, Growth

This is a fully remote position, open to applicants in Poland.

📋 Description

• Rapidly prototype AI-native concepts in code. Transform designs from Figma or insights from LLM conversations into functional, production-ready React code within days, taking charge of layout, interaction, motion, accessibility, and performance;

• Deliver production-quality Growth surfaces. Oversee key interfaces from start to finish: including layout, interaction, motion, accessibility, and performance;

• Uphold the quality standard. As AI enhances execution, your role is to set the benchmark — discerning judgment, taste, and interaction finesse that AI cannot provide. Clarify what "good" means when delivering with AI, through reviews, examples, and reusable patterns for others to utilize;

• Enhance our AI-driven tools and methodologies. Refine our processes, patterns, and prompt libraries so that the entire team can keep pace with your speed;

• Establish the quality expectations for AI-assisted output. Collaborate with design leadership to articulate what ‘good’ signifies when working with AI — through reviews, examples, and reusable patterns for others to leverage;

• Pioneer the Design Engineer role at PandaDoc. Manage projects from inception to launch, influencing how this position functions as the first hire in this area;

• Assess your impact in two ways: through the quality of what you produce and the speed at which the team operates due to your contributions.

⛳️ Requirements

• Extensive experience in both design and front-end engineering, with a portfolio showcasing shipped interfaces or widely-used components;

• Proficient in React, TypeScript, modern CSS, and at least one animation library (such as Framer Motion, React Spring, or equivalent);

• Actively and opinionatedly utilize Cursor and Claude Code in your daily tasks, possessing a clear perspective on achieving production-quality results;

• Keen awareness of design and engineering workflows — you can identify where inefficiencies arise and create the tools, patterns, or processes that resolve them;

• Comfortable starting from scratch, with the discernment to provide direction when no established template exists.

🏝️ Benefits

• Competitive salary. For candidates based in Poland, the salary range is 31,000-40,000 PLN per month.

• Remote-first work culture with an option for hybrid arrangements from our offices in Kyiv, Warsaw, and Lisbon.

• We prioritize long-term collaboration, whether through standard employment contracts, employment of record, or B2B agreements. Note that contract types and benefits may vary by location — please consult with our recruiters for clarification.

• Work hours aligned with EU time zones.

• A transparent, open culture that encourages constructive feedback.

• Opportunities for professional and personal growth within a collaborative and supportive team.

• A stable yet expanding SaaS product that provides an agile environment, ownership, start-up energy, and significant technical challenges.
