Staff Design Technologist (AI Experience Systems & Governance) at a glance...

You will operate at the intersection of Design, Engineering, and Product to establish the systems, guardrails, and workflows that enable teams to build high-quality, human-centered, and enterprise-grade products by default. You will define and scale how user experiences are created in an AI-accelerated development environment. As GenAI and AI-assisted development (“vibe coding”) increase the speed and accessibility of software creation, this role ensures that experience quality, consistency, and system integrity scale alongside it.

What's on the menu?

1. Define Experience Blueprints

• Establish standardized experience models for core product patterns (e.g., dashboards, workflows, forms, decision interfaces)

• Define information hierarchy, layout structures, and interaction patterns

• Translate business problems into repeatable, system-driven experience frameworks

2. Embed Design System into AI-Driven Workflows

• Ensure enterprise design system (e.g., Delish) is integrated into GenAI and AI-assisted development environments

• Drive adoption of system components, tokens, and patterns in generated outputs

• Identify gaps in system coverage and partner with engineering to rapidly close them

3. Develop Experience Prompt Frameworks

• Create structured prompt libraries that encode:

• UX best practices

• Accessibility standards

• Information hierarchy and decision logic

• Enable engineers and product teams to generate human-centered, system-aligned outputs

4. Establish Experience Quality Guardrails

• Define lightweight evaluation frameworks for usability, consistency, and system adherence

• Introduce “experience linting” for AI-generated and manually built interfaces

• Create feedback loops to continuously improve output quality

5. Detect and Correct Pattern Drift

• Monitor inconsistencies across products and AI-generated outputs

• Identify breakdowns in design system usage and blueprint adherence

• Feed insights back into system evolution and prompt refinement

6. Define Golden Path Workflows

• Create standardized workflows for building common product experiences

• Align workflows to design system, blueprints, and prompt frameworks

• Enable teams to follow the fastest path to high-quality output

7. Enable Adoption and Capability Building

• Deliver targeted enablement sessions on building quality experiences with AI

• Demonstrate best practices through real-world examples and prototypes

• Partner with Design, Product, and Engineering to embed new ways of working
