Design Engineer

Mintlify is revolutionizing developer documentation, serving over 70M+ developers annually. As a Series A company backed by a16z and BCV, we're empowering the fastest-growing AI companies like X, Anthropic, Cursor, Perplexity, and Scale AI, alongside 7000+ others.

As a Design Engineer, you'll bridge the gap between design and development, crafting beautiful, responsive interfaces while maintaining excellent code quality and performance. You'll join a small but mighty team that values ownership, user experience, and impactful contributions.

Our culture celebrates diversity (speaking 12 languages collectively) and encourages being unapologetically yourself. We prioritize learning velocity and grit, following our principle of "hire for slope over y-intercept." Team members think beyond their scope, actively seeking ways to contribute and help.

The role involves daily stand-ups balanced with focused building time. You'll work in an environment where the best ideas win and where acknowledging mistakes is valued. You'll have the opportunity to own projects and features, learning and growing while making significant impacts.

Requirements include experience with Next.js in production environments, a strong portfolio, expertise in component-based design systems, and an eye for design elements like typography and visual hierarchy. Familiarity with UI/UX design tools and testing frameworks is a plus.

Join us in our mission to empower builders worldwide, working alongside a team that values growth, innovation, and meaningful impact. You'll be part of a fast-moving founding team that's proud of its YC heritage and focused on aligning growth with value.
