The Unity Design System team is transitioning Unity into a fully AI-enabled, agent-ready platform: AI-assisted design-to-code, Claude Code skills, MCP integrations, and AI-driven UI delivery, with humans in the loop to curate, approve, and evolve standards.&#xa0; This role sits on the developer-facing side of Unity. The person in this seat is a hands-on, full-stack-leaning engineer and the visible “face” of Unity development — building the React component library and developer tooling, pioneering agentic AI workflows, and serving the 600+ member developer community as a trusted, go-to resource.&#xa0;</p><p>Work collaboratively across the Unity Design System team, BTS, and AbbVie's developer and design communities to conceive, design, engineer, and deliver developer-facing components, tooling, and AI-assisted workflows that accelerate compliant, high-quality digital product delivery across the enterprise. Serve as a hands-on senior builder across the full stack — React/TypeScript components and design tokens, Python/Node.js services and automation, and agentic AI integrations — while&#xa0;operating&#xa0;autonomously: gathering requirements directly from developers, QA testing your own work, deploying, and closing fast feedback loops. Establish trust and credibility as the go-to resource for Unity development needs and act as the developer-facing face of the design system.&#xa0;</p><p><strong>Responsibilities&#xa0;</strong></p><ul><li><strong>Design, build, test, and&#xa0;maintain&#xa0;</strong>reusable, accessible React/TypeScript components for the Unity React library, with deep attention to design tokens/tokenization, theming (light/dark, density modes), composability, and Storybook documentation.&#xa0;</li><li><strong>Build and pioneer AI-assisted and agentic developer workflows</strong>&#xa0;— Claude Code skills, MCP server integrations (Figma, Storybook), context/markdown files, and prompt-to-code / design-to-code pipelines — that enable both developers and AI agents to deliver Unity-compliant UI at scale. (Claude Code skills experience is&#xa0;required.)&#xa0;</li><li><strong>Develop&#xa0;</strong>full-stack supporting services, front-end automation, and build/release/validation&#xa0;tooling&#xa0;using Python and Node.js (CI/CD, design-ops, compliance checks).&#xa0;</li><li><strong>Own quality end-to-end:</strong>&#xa0;write and&#xa0;maintain&#xa0;automated tests, perform accessibility (WCAG 2.2 AA) and cross-browser QA using the team&#xa0;toolstack&#xa0;(Storybook, Axe, GitHub), and&#xa0;QA&#xa0;your own work before release.&#xa0;</li><li><strong>Act as the developer-facing face of Unity</strong> —&#xa0;provide community support, outreach, and management;&#xa0;build&#xa0;relationships,&#xa0;run&#xa0;demos/office hours/presentations, and&#xa0;establish&#xa0;trust and credibility as the go-to resource for Unity development.&#xa0;</li><li><strong>Work autonomously</strong> to&#xa0;gather and generate requirements directly from developer-community needs, translate them into actionable work, and communicate back to the team with quick feedback loops.&#xa0;</li><li><strong>Contribute to Unity's data-visualization capabilities</strong>&#xa0;and support data-science-driven features, applying a data-science background and data-visualization experience where applicable.&#xa0;</li><li><strong>Wear multiple hats and context-switch&#xa0;as a co-owner of team responsibilities</strong> across&#xa0;requirements, development, QA/testing, deployment, application development, community building, and presentations.&#xa0;</li><li><strong>Stay current with&#xa0;state-of-the-art&#xa0;AI development and productivity tooling;&#xa0;</strong>pilot, evaluate, and roll out improvements (e.g., Storybook MCP, AI documentation, new productivity tools) across the team.</li><li><strong>Provide technical leadership and&#xa0;mentor less-experienced staff; </strong>partner with designers, brand, accessibility, and BTS stakeholders; and adhere to corporate standards including code of conduct, data security,&#xa0;GxP&#xa0;compliance where applicable, and the software development lifecycle.&#xa0;</li></ul>",
