  • Partner closely with designers and developers to ensure design solutions are technically feasible and aligned to platform constraints
  • Create clear documentation that supports efficient design-to-development delivery
  • Champion accessibility standards (WCAG 2.2) and inclusive design principles
  • Drive consistency across customer journeys while maintaining a strong, brand-aligned visual language
  • Facilitate collaboration across Product, Design, Technology and Development teams
  • Contribute to the ongoing governance, scalability and maturity of RACV's design system
  • Explore responsible uses of AI and automation to improve design-to-development workflows

  • 5+ years' experience in UX/UI Design, Design Systems or similar roles
  • Strong visual design and interaction design capability with a systems-thinking mindset
  • Demonstrated experience building and maintaining design systems, component libraries and design tokens
  • Deep understanding of responsive design, interaction patterns and design system architecture
  • Experience translating UX concepts into structured, reusable UI components
  • Strong experience working with Figma, including component libraries and tokens
  • Proven ability to collaborate with engineers to bring design systems to life
  • Experience delivering complex digital products, eCommerce or transactional experiences
  • Strong communication skills with the ability to articulate design rationale and system thinking
  • Passion for accessibility, inclusive design and high-quality customer experiences
  • Ability to thrive in complex environments and work autonomously while aligning to a broader vision
