- Develop and maintain the library ecosystem, including documentation, usage guidelines, examples, and developer enablement materials.
- Build and operate Node.js-based tooling for the library (build, test, lint, packaging, and publishing) and support CI/CD automation.
- Adhere to established quality practices for the design system: automated unit/integration tests, visual/regression testing where applicable, and code review standards.
- Support versioning and release practices for internal consumers (e.g., semantic versioning, change logs, deprecation strategy) to enable safe adoption.
- Support internal users of the design system by troubleshooting integration issues, triaging defects, and improving developer experience (DX).

- Hands-on experience with Angular, React, and Lit in a component-library or design-system context.
- Familiarity or hands-on experience with Web Components (custom elements; Shadow DOM concepts) and how to integrate them with common frameworks.
- Experience publishing and maintaining internal packages (versioning, release notes, deprecation strategy) for multiple consuming teams.
