Description

Job Title: Product Designer, Design Systems Location: Remote (United States-based) Type: Full-time Starting Salary: $110,000 (title and salary based on experience) Help Us Build the Design Layer That Amplifies Change At Novi AMS, we're not just building software. We're amplifying change for the associations who power real communities. Our platform is the only AMS built by associations, for associations, and it's about to take a meaningful leap forward in how it looks, feels, and scales. We're looking for a designer to own the visual and UX design system layer of our platform. You'll partner closely with engineering as they build out our component architecture, defining the patterns, interactions, and visual language that make Novi feel cohesive across every screen our customers touch. This role will work closely with our VP of Product & Engineering. This is a builder role. You'll set the system, then go execute it yourself. We're not looking for someone to manage a team — we're looking for someone who sees the problem, decides the play, and runs it. If you do this well, you'll build the team underneath you and grow into a leadership role as we scale. Why This Role Matters Design is one of the most important growth levers in front of us. Novi is about to take a meaningful leap forward in how it looks, feels, and scales, and we need a designer who can define the system that makes that leap possible. We're also looking for someone genuinely curious about where design systems are headed: AI-enabled systems where Figma libraries, component code, and documentation talk to each other natively. This is a chance to help shape that future, not just keep up with it. Associations are a unique market that rely on trust and clarity. The interfaces we build need to reflect that. What You'll Do Design System Ownership Build and steward our product design system. Define the components, patterns, tokens, and guidelines that engineering can ship against with confidence. Partner with our front-end architecture lead on the component library, making sure our design system and technical foundation evolve together. Maintain Figma libraries, documentation, and contribution guidelines so the system scales as the team grows. AI-Native Design Tooling Explore and build toward AI-enabled design tooling, where our Figma libraries, component code, and documentation can read and talk to each other natively. Help us figure out what a machine-readable, AI-native design system looks like in practice. Product Design Design product UI for new features and redesigns across the Novi platform, including the website builder, member portal, event tools, and admin experiences. Translate complex association workflows (membership, dues, events, communications) into clear, usable interfaces. Collaborate candidly with product, engineering, and customers to validate designs and iterate quickly. Bring a bias to action: ship work, learn from how it performs, and refine. What You'll Bring 4 to 6 years of product design experience, ideally in B2B SaaS. A portfolio that shows real design system work, not just polished mockups: components, documentation, contribution patterns, governance. Mastery of Figma, including variables, auto-layout, component properties, and library management. Genuine curiosity about AI tooling for design and engineering, and a point of view on how design systems should evolve in an AI-native world. Strong product sensibility: you can design a workflow as well as a button. Comfort working closely with engineers, including familiarity with how design systems get implemented in code (you don't need to write it, but you should understand it). Ability to self-manage, push back constructively, and deliver quality work without heavy oversight. A help-first attitude and comfort working remotely with a small, collaborative team. Nice to have: Experience designing for trade associations, nonprofits, or membership organizations. Exposure to component-based front-end frameworks (React, Vue, Blazor). Background in accessibility standards (WCAG) and inclusive design. Experience with token pipelines (Style Dictionary, Tokens Studio) or design-to-code workflows. Light UX research skills (usability testing, customer interviews). Why You'll Love Working at Novi AMS Fully remote. We've been a virtual company for nearly 10 years. Your own tech stack. Computer, equipment, and software provided, plus an internet stipend so work never costs you. Health, dental, and vision insurance, HSA/FSA options. Generous PTO, schedule flexibility, and paid corporate holidays. 401K with 3% company match, life insurance, short to long term disability. A diverse, inclusive team of dedicated, energetic, and FUN thought leaders who love to celebrate wins (we love our bacon!). "What truly excites me about working at Novi are the connections we build, not just within our team, but also with our customers. There's no greater feeling than hearing feedback that we have made a positive impact on people's lives." Lane Gibbs, Director of Operations A note from us: Novi AMS has been fully remote for over a decade, and we've spent that time building something we're genuinely proud of — a team that takes the work seriously without taking ourselves too seriously. We celebrate the wins (yes, with bacon), we look out for each other, and we believe that the best ideas come from people who feel safe enough to share them. Associations create change in their industries and communities every day. Our mission is to amplify it. It's meaningful work, and the people doing it should feel meaningful too. If you read our job descriptions and think "these are my people," we'd love to hear from you. We also believe diversity drives innovation, and we're committed to building a team that reflects a wide range of backgrounds, perspectives, and experiences. Every application is welcome here.
